Welcome to the fifth season of The Gleyber Torres Show. It’s difficult for TV shows to sustain longevity. Often, they peak in the second or third season, then peter out by the fifth or sixth. Sometimes, a show bears only a scant resemblance to its beloved early episodes. By the end of the run, even the most loyal devotees only watch out of habit and nostalgia.
Gleyber captivated audiences in year one. In the second season, the show looked like an all-time classic in the making. Since then, there have been few enjoyable moments. At this point, it’s long past time for the Yankees to remove Gleyber from a prime time slot.
