What I heard was the writers weren’t comic book fans and didn’t know the risk of overpowered characters- they wrote themselves in a corner.

It was also designed to be an anthology show with new heroes every season.

And the first Writers Strike didn’t help at all.

And and and, the second season juggled a dozen characters, so every week was storyline roulette. An episode could be full of plot and still wind up as filler because you don't give two shits about any of the characters getting screen time.
