Maybe writers run out of ideas. Any show that starts off with people who you can identify with but have quirks seems to always morph into the quirks taking over and the identifying with them as normal goes away. The genius of breaking bad and Ozark first seasons. And downhill from there. But guess there's a natural arc you can't change.
