It's a show about ordinary people going up against godlike superheroes, so much of the intrigue and tension comes from the hook of "How are they going to thwart such powerful people? What clever schemes are they going to devise to defeat these seemingly invincible people?". Turns out all the righters can think of is "Oh blackmail! and then blackmail again!". You're 100% right, it becomes a dumb gimmick as the seasons go on.
Looking forward to watching this series from you! You kinda sound like an optimistic RalphTheMovieMaker but with an editing style akin to Schaffrillas. Keep going my bro :)
