Started to watch & enjoy over the weekend. Very intriguing & original so far, but wary it may become somewhat frustrating. Already tired of the typical teen angst, but Theroux, Brenneman & Eccleston are magnetic characters. Concerned that Lindelof has his paws on it. Board's thoughts?

spoilers -




Scene where Gladys is murdered was one of the most brutal things I've viewed anywhere.

It could be the most interesting series on TV right now. I literally sometimes have no idea what will happen in an episode. There aren't many things currently on TV that I can say that about.

International Assassin might be the most batshit insane episode of any show ever. In a good way.

It feels like a show I should hate, yet I can't look away. I have no idea what is going on, every character is a complete weirdo, and I love it. It is a great show, but be prepared to say wtf over and over again. I am ready for the final season to see how all of the craziness ties together.

Has been my favorite show on tv the last 2 years along with The Americans. Am looking forward to Season 3, but will be sad to see the Garveys go.

Love it! I believe the 3rd season will be the last. Hate to see it end, my wife and I have enjoyed the hell out of it. Another one we have enjoyed in a weird sort of no clue what is going on way is Preacher on AMC.

I need to give it another shot. I made it 6 or 7 episodes, and while it was really intriguing, it just never grabbed me and made me desperate to watch the next episode.

Season one followed the book from beginning to end. The writers really stepped things up for season two. Which is one of the reasons I didn't mind the show going on a long hiatus. If you are interested in what they have planned for season three. Read this

it's awesome and I wish there were a way to keep it interesting for more like 5 seasons. This upcoming season is unfortunately the last. Although I wouldn't want it to go down the Lost road either.

I'm glad that this is the final season. But I'm upset that it's only a 8 episode season.
