Fair comparison, but this is more than just a crossover between Law & Order versions. It's local language shows produced in non-English markets that are equally high budget and exist in a shared story world. That elevates it in my mind to something really new.

More than 10 years since I watched those first 5 seasons and it's still a top favorite of mine.

Somewhere around season 10 was when I stopped watching it weekly. I caught up whenever I had a couple of episodes to binge. After 11 I didn't want to continue anymore. I started a rewatch during that hiatus and I was shocked to finally notice how far the quality had dropped with those later seasons.

After that I came across youtube clips here and there so I have a general idea what the last 4 seasons were like. I did watch the season 15 penultimate episode though and it was just complete garbage. The cgi was so bad the show looked like shit. It looked much better in the earlier seasons. And that was 15 years earlier!

I still watch Kripke's run every other year or so.

Reacher ... with an 8.1/10 on 132,000 reviews on IMDb, and a 92% critic score and 91% audience score on RT?

Don't know what that's got to do with anything, though. Nick Santora is the showrunner on Reacher and he has no involvement in Citadel. Citadel was originally headed by Josh Appelbaum and Andre Nemec, but they got into a spat with the Russo Bros and now David Weil is running it along with the Russos.

The Michael Emerson Brady Bunch episode and Burt Reynolds is God episode in season 9 weren't too bad. I liked the William episode too.
I actually thought season 8 had some solid mythology episodes (that season 9 kinda retroactively made worse by muddying up the alien replicant plot into supersoldier bullshit). Plus, Vienen was a very solid black oil story that was basically the only time the show teamed up Mulder and Doggett.
