Criminal Justice: A Family Matter

I initially gave a 6-star rating (out of 10) purely because of how much I enjoyed the show and its overall quality. However, I'm genuinely disappointed with the way the full episodes are being delayed. When the Season 4 trailer dropped, I was incredibly excited. But that excitement has slowly turned into frustration due to the drawn-out release schedule.

Delaying full episodes and not releasing them all at once plays with viewer expectations and can seriously reduce the emotional impact and anticipation you've worked so hard to build. If this continues, it could hurt your ratings and viewership long-term-not because the show lacks quality, but because of these decisions around how it's being released.

The show itself is easily a 10/10, but unfortunately, these choices are making it hard to stay engaged. Please consider how this affects loyal viewers moving forward.

I'm watching criminal since the start but this season was truly amazing and one of the best season which criminal justice has showcased us.

The story was eventually a mystery until it's last episode despite being the series the creators made it look so easy and deliberate that it just amaze you're mind but looking at each episode and waiting for the next one.

This was the season where I was desperately waiting every Thursday for the new episode to release and have a look at it. This brings back to me in my childhood days where we supposed to wait for one week and then new episode comes out but it was a great experience although to wait and watch the whole season.

The only reason to watch criminal justice was to see Pankaj Tripathi but the last episode is the real episode which gives you the example how you can be the best without being on the different sides absolutely banger.

Climex totally caught me off guard. I didn't see that coming. Though it felt little slow, I really enjoyed it. Some subplots can be slightly predictable. The legal drama feels so real, and Pankaj Tripathi as Madhav Mishra is absolutely brilliant. He brings such a calm but sharp energy to every scene. What I liked most is that it wasn't predictable. Just when I thought I figured something out, the story took a different turn. The characters were interesting, and the pacing kept me engaged throughout. Overall, Climex was a solid watch. Not overhyped, just smart storytelling with the right amount of thrill.

Criminal Justice - A Family Matter - Season 4

What a phenomenal and heart-touching web series!

This season portrays the unmatched strength of a mother's love.

Mrs. Anju Nagpal (Surveen Chawla), battling pancreatic cancer, takes the blame for the murder of her husband's girlfriend - Ms. Roshni Saluja (Asha Negi) - just to protect her daughter Ira (Khushi Bharadwaj), who lives with Asperger's Syndrome.

She knew that after her death, if her husband Dr. Raj Nagpal (Mohammad Zeeshan Ayyub) was jailed, her daughter would be left alone in the world.

Anju was not just a mother, she was a brilliant former lawyer, who used her legal mind to fight the toughest and final battle of her life. Her sacrifice was beyond imagination - choosing to die with dignity while securing her daughter's future.

Then comes the brilliance of Madhav Mishra (Pankaj Tripathi) - the iconic lawyer who wins our hearts every time with his wit, humility, and depth. Even he bows emotionally to Anju Nagpal's unmatched courage and silent wisdom.

This isn't just a story of crime and justice - It's about pain, love, courage, and the silent sacrifices mothers make every day.

🙏 A heartfelt salute to every mother who gives up everything for her child.

💔 The ending was truly emotional and unforgettable.

Special mention to the entire cast - Sweta Basu Prasad, Khushi Bharadwaj, and others - who delivered powerful performances that brought this story alive.

6.5/10 - Rather disappointing, frankly

What an absolute letdown this turned out to be. Having thoroughly enjoyed the earlier seasons, particularly that cracking first series with Vikrant Massey, I was rather looking forward to Madhav Mishra's return. Regrettably, this fourth outing feels decidedly past its sell-by date.

Tripathi remains competent enough, though one can't help but notice he's simply going through the motions now. Those tedious domestic scenes with his wife and brother-in-law? Utterly repetitive. We've seen this song and dance twice over, and frankly, it's wearing rather thin.

The central mystery - supposedly the show's bread and butter - is stretched thinner than a politician's promise. What could have been a tight four-episode affair has been unnecessarily bloated into a meandering slog. The pacing is absolutely dreadful; revelations are doled out with all the urgency of a Sunday afternoon stroll.

Where the original series crackled with genuine tension and social commentary that felt organic, this feels manufactured and formulaic. The courtroom scenes lack bite, the family dynamics feel stale, and the whole affair reeks of a series that's outstayed its welcome.

Time to call it quits, I'd say. Some things are best left at their peak.
