If you can’t make it during an off-season time, consider going to “Islands of Adventure” instead. Seriously. That park is still stellar. You’ll have a damn good time, I swear! It’s not worth it to go to Epic Universe on a popular day from what I hear. There can be multiple 4-hr lines!!

It’s a REALLY cool park, but unfortunately they’re filling it about 2-3x more than they should be and with how complex most of the rides are, there’s a lot of down time. This makes for agonizingly long queue lines. About half of said lines are awesome at least.

To find an off-season day, basically look for middle-of-the-week days that have a cheaper ticket price. The lower the price, the more off-season. Typically, January/February has the most off-season days as well as the first or second week of September.

In the off-chance you plan to go to Epic Universe before 2027, you may want to consider finding the most off-season day you can find to go. That’s what I did. It was still super crowded, but I was at least able to ride mostly everything.

Overall, it felt like the series steadily gets better relatively linearly as it progresses. It’s not a perfect show, and maybe one or two plot developments feel a bit extra, but it’s largely entertaining enough to be forgivable.
Pretty excited for S5 again. Hope it doesn’t fumble.

S1 was oddly the hardest to re-watch because it relied heavily on the mystery. Once you know what’s going on, it’s not quite as entertaining to sit through, but is still pretty solid.
The “Cut to previous episode footage” moments are very annoying when you watch the series back-to-back.
