Based on what I can actually see...
I didn't write a review for ep.1 because I didn't want to give this series a one star rating, even for a single episode. Two thing are ruining this series for me: the ridiculous surrealism and the unlit scenes. Even the daylight scenes are poorly lit.
The surrealism started in the 3rd season, and made the season almost unwatchable for me. I've concluded that some self-impressed showrunner (or team of that sort) has taken the reins and has made the series all about stroking a few egos behind the scenes.
I don't want to blame the director of the first episode since it's Billy Bob Thornton, but maybe the director of this episode is one of the team I mentioned.
At any rate, this just isn't "Goliath" anymore, it's "Look everybody at how cutting edge we can be". This series sucks now. I'm going to try to watch the 3rd episode, but it will probably be a slog for me..
