Agreed. I fully expect these things, including long-standing annoyances like the fake car horns every time anyone crosses an urban street to make things look more chaotic than they really are. But this season it all seems to be cranked up substantially.

I'll still watch it as I know what to expect from the formula, and I understand the economics. Omicron very much a factor in the spring when they filmed it as well, after a couple of years off. But the decline is still pretty apparent in this season.
