TFATWS's plot was just such a confusing, boring mess, and Karli really was such an irritating character. I did enjoy Sam and Bucky and their interactions, although I definitely agree the therapist thing was stupid. But the part I remember most fondly is when Sam and Bucky worked on the boat, haha.
Reportedly, the original script for TFATWS had a significant plot point about a pandemic (written before covid). Once covid started, they re-edited/rewrote/reshot the whole thing to tear that plot out, which made the whole thing collapse.
I get the sense from what you've written that you're kind of dismissing the race relations aspect as American nonsense, but it feels like that's causing you to miss important context in the Isaiah story. Him having such a similar backstory to Steve but being treated so much worse mirrors the many real life instances in which black people in America have been experimented upon and mistreated, such as the Tuskegee Syphilis Study which inspired the Isaiah Bradley character in the comics.
