#1
The tight focus on Eddie, Susie and Bobby can keep the story clear, but several critics dislike how Season 2 sidelines Susie or beloved comic supporting players for long stretches.
Pros: finale satisfaction, character consistency
Cons: screenplay quality, release schedule
#2
The ensemble often gets meaningful side stories and distinct motivations, but some critics wanted more room for Nell, other marginalized characters, and secondary plots to develop.
Pros: pilot episode quality, main cast performance
Cons: family friendliness, continuity
#3
Coverage of the three siblings is somewhat uneven across reviews: one critic finds Andrew more developed than his sisters, while another praises the series for giving all three meaningful attention.
Pros: cast chemistry, acting quality
Cons: family friendliness, age appropriateness
#4
Ensemble balance is divisive. Some praise the better-integrated supporting stories, while others think too many subplots repeatedly steal time from Benedict and Sophie.
Pros: rewatch value, supporting cast performance
Cons: CGI quality, continuity
#5
The large ensemble is a major tradeoff: some reviewers enjoy having many characters and perspectives to latch onto, while others find the overlapping storylines crowded, distracting, or hard to track.
Pros: episode structure, supporting cast performance
Cons: character consistency, soundtrack quality
#6
The ensemble gets many appealing side stories, but several critics feel Teagan is too often pushed into managing the boys’ problems while her own grief and friendships receive less room.
Pros: episode structure, season finale quality
Cons: season length, character consistency
#7
The ensemble often feels overcrowded or unevenly used. Several critics found semi-prominent characters forgotten, blurred together, or introduced without enough time to matter.
Pros: main cast performance, drama quality
Cons: directing quality, franchise connection
