I don't like Sally but the trial episode of her testifying was great. She let the air out while still lying her arse off. I do find it weird that Nolan wasn't even mentioned for a few episodes and his mom just went away. John's son also just isn't mentioned hardly in season 3. I also find it odd that they fast forward 5 months and Ozzy just was cool with sitting low in Miami during that time.

Yep, confessing her sin gained Sally the credibility to tell an even worse lie. It was depressingly realistic.

Oops.
Didn't mean to downvote that comment.

Just finished the series. While it wasn't as good as 2 and certainly not 1; I didn't think it was awful. The only character I really rooted for was Chelsea. She got a bad rap at every turn. I am somewhat glad John didn't go to jail. Seems like he was that f'ed up family's fixer his whole life - finally took its toll on him.

The actor that played Kevin did a fantastic job. Kevin was one of the biggest douchebag characters in the history of TV and Leo Norbert Butz played it to the hilt. Just googled him - he is a major stage actor.

And has one one the worst names ever!!

She's the only one with true redeeming value.

John would in line, but he killed his brother. I kinda hoped John and Meg would kill Kevin next, but Meg jumped the shark end of S2 and "hide better" or whatever S3 decided to do was dumb. If John is family savior then do Michael Corleone, protect the family for better or worse and hate yourself because of it. I empathize with him, but he was weak.

I had the feeling right when Ozzy started hearing voices, directive, that it fell of a cliff. But it wasn't until he went into the Church and the Father that was speaking with him didn't exist, that I realized writers had no clue. They were going to interject supernatural into the storyline. Yikes. I'm glad the show got canceled. Luckily they spent their last 4 hours of story, and editing on nonsense and unimportance.

Just binged this weekend and man you guys hit it head on.

Through the first 7 episodes i was thinking, "man those guys at TD had this all wrong, this season is great". Then i watched 8,9,10.

What the F was episode 9? How did the writers think that was a good idea?


- I agree 100% about Ozzie. Most worthless character in TV history. He served no purpose

- You could almost say the same for Nolan. I felt like he was a good actor but they used his character wrong.

I loved this show and honestly season 3 wasnt that bad, but the final 2 were pretty bad.


Sidenote- This is weird, but anyone else feel like the unnecessarily cuss? I feel like its bad writing but they will drop tons of F bombs that really dont fit.

For example, one episode O'Banon said something like, "F*ck the Rayburns, those f*cking f*cks". I f*cking hate those f*cks." It was like a 12 year old wrote it. lol

I liked S3 minus episode 9. S3 was better than S2 but less quality than S1.

Nolan mentioned something about his mom pursuing her music career with her new boyfriend when Sally asked how his mom was during one of the episodes. For those people wondering about Nolan's mom.
