I've seen parts of the later seasons but not full episodes or anything, and a lot of the suspense literally comes from making the audience wait for far too long for the pay out. I'm certainly okay with a bit of suspense, but at some point it gets super repetitive and starts to lose its charm when the show is made to cater to those that like the suspense. For me to enjoy it, each episode has to have something to offer, much like Breaking Bad did, and a lot of Prison Break had that as well. And even more recently, House of Cards, though the 4th season of that was a bit of a let down.
