Season 3 - Horrible! What was the point?


Really, is that it?? I finished it thinking, "um, nothing happened." What a waste of a few hours. Each episode was filled with so much fluff. Nothing happened! I was so bored!! Anyone else? What was the point of it?

Seemed a whole lot like the previous seasons. There's not really an overall storyline that is wrapped up in each season, is there?

What happened, though? More character growth and development. A lot of josh dealing with the loss of Raquel and then the death of his "best friend."

Yes, it was about more character development and continued themes from the previous seasons. I actually thought this season was much better than the previous two - I found the stories more moving. I really liked the episode that was the flashback of the childhoods of Mort/Maura and Shellie.

Season 3 was definitely a meandering mess. Having watched all three seasons back to back, S3 seemed markedly less coherent.

I'm enjoying S3 a whole lot more than 2 - I felt that 2 wandered too much into the rest of the family. I like how 3 is more about Maude
