I agree with you. I did enjoy the darkness of the other seasons, but that doesn't mean it made the show better. I believe the darker aspects were the writers attempting to make the show seem more complex, when in reality, season one was by far more complex because there were things to figure out; while the other seasons boiled down to "find the mask" and "stop evil" which means that, actually, the plot became less complex. And I just enjoyed the mystery idea a lot more than the characters just fighting evil.
