Just saw that Season 3 of R.A. is dropping on February 14th. Hearing that was like opening a really late Christmas present. Can't wait...

Some of these are really good. I feel like they could go the Warehouse 13 route and do an adventure of the week with a little season long thread holding it together. But they’ve really got a pretty intricate plot line going right now.

Tudyk is hilarious as the fish out of water character. He really steals the show.

I didn't know they made a season 3.
I enjoyed season 1. Never got around to watching season 2.
Is season 2 on Peacock or Prime or another streaming service?

I love the show. Really hoping they don't spend all their creative capital, but so far that's just not been the case.

Netflix has seasons 1 & 2.


Glad we're getting a 3rd season.

Just started watching this series on Netflix over the past weekend. Didn't know a thing about it previously. Really enjoyed the 1st season, and started season 2 yesterday. Solid series.

I've liked the lead actor since A Knights Tale.

Going to let my Apple+ subscription expire for a bit & pick up Peacock. Need to see how this season goes (actually need more D'arcy) and watch some other stuff.

* I didn’t think I had missed any episodes of season two but I must’ve stopped at some midseason point? Missing about six or eight episodes before I can get to S3.

** The show is as good as I remember. So much went on that I had forgotten.

*** paying for Peacock sucks. Having to watch ads after paying for a service … dropping this shite as soon as I’m done with this series.

Starting S3 now. The 2 kids sure did grow up.

Did a mid S2 rewatch, as I think that's where I bailed before. So much has happened in such a short time, I had forgotten that Harry's ex-wife AND daughter had already made an appearance and exited the show.

The list of side characters is pretty impressive so far.

The show has some of the best writers and actors currently anywhere.

Some really great lines. Sheriff Mike is particularly hilarious. Good grief, he’s nailing it.

Dude said I ain't swimming in a place where somebody else is teabagging. You put a tea bag in a speedo and you put it in some water, you still gonna get a cup of tea that taste like your nuts.

Also, I really like what they did with Sahar. She could’ve been just a placeholder character for “diversity” sake, but she really does bring a lot to the show. Really well written. The start of season three where she’s “going after school“ really felt clunky. I hope that she’s not written out completely. Anyone else find that weird? Not sure what is going on with the sudden introduction of new kid characters either. The exit of Sahar and the introduction of new kids doesn’t seem to be a coincidence.

Ep4 is easily the worst so far. Hopefully a one off meant to appease the DEI overlords.

Every sub story seemed contrived and hurriedly put together. The only redeeming characters were Sheriff Mike and the Deputy.

I started watching RA after seeing all the recommendations on MTV Board. It's really enjoyable with some laugh at loud moments. Most of the characters are superbly done ie Harry, D'Arcy, the Sheriff, the mayor, even the two kids. It's been a minute since I've enjoyed two precocious kids as much as these two. Three episodes into Season 2 now.

Enjoy it now. S3 is a big drop off from the first 2.

Unfortunately, it seems like the writers are wildly grasping in trying to finish the season. Alan Tudyk is doing the alien part OK, but the real star in my mind is Sheriff Mike. Even in a mediocre episode, he still brings it.
