I for once like Pearl in the newer seasons better. What you said probably applies to the episode "Rose's Scabbard", but that was way back in Season 1 (funny, considering how you think S1 Pearl was better), but after that Pearl went through lots of character development, and she solved most of her issues. Which actually explain why there hasn't been (nor seems to be the case in the near future) any Pearl-centric episodes after "Mr. Greg."

I also think that your opinion on Garnet may be product of fan interpretation rather than the show itself. Fans tend to be very bad with non-hetero characters. Pearl is one of the deepest and most complex main characters on the show, but many fans have the nasty habit to reduce her to simply being gay. The same thing happen with Ruby and Sapphire (though granted, they don't have much of a personality outside their love for each other)

And sure, the show brings Garnet being a fusion up from time to time, but it's undoubtedly a big part of her character and something hard to ignore once it was revealed. But other than that, Garnet didn't change much from Season 1 (which in my opinion made her far less engaging than Pearl and Amethyst over time).
