I think the network stayed the same but they changed producers/showrunners. It started out with Sanders/something and went to Kronish, if the muttered complaints about Kronish at the beginning of a bunch of the SABER fics are anything to go by, lol. What cracked me up was finding the ep guide someone was writing for the show - I'd been following it since the pilot (watch an ep, then read their commentary on it) and other than a few in S1/S2 that they'd missed taping, they had some great thoughts and interesting commentary. And then we get to S3. First three eps, they're ranting left and right about all the inconsistencies, the stupid character behavior, even some of the wardrobe changes (like why on earth was Sam wearing a PINK blouse - just ugh!)… and then the guide just skips the next 10 eps without bothering to say anything about it. Like "this is just pointless", haha. I'm looking forward to watching the next ep they *did* bother to write about, lol, but in the meantime I've resigned myself to rolling my eyes a bunch at the OOCness. (And stupid stuff like their plane which is *definitely* larger on the inside than it is on the outside.)
I've written five ficlets already on AO3 and I'm pleased with the last one (but the others aren't terrible either, I don't think) - so you're also welcome to check them out if you like, and I can rec some other good ones that I've found here and there (I need to make more time for my fic db so I can get Profiler added in at some point).
I'm up to 3x04 and sort of watching slowly because I started a super tropey fic set just after 2x03 that's very, very Sam/Bailey, and I'm having fun indulging myself there. Haven't posted it anywhere yet, though. I'm pasting bits to a friend on Discord that is watching Profiler (they saw a few eps years ago but don't really remember it so they're watching it straight through from the start, haven't quite finished S1 yet though), and we'll see how long I can manage writing it before I run into a brick wall.
