Agreed....first half of the season it just seemed they didn't know what to do with some storylines (Zava...wtf?)

I'm assuming there is not going to be a season 4 based on how they seem to be wrapping up character arcs ect?
Yeah this is the final season. It feels like they had a timeline for 4 or 5 seasons built out, and then it got cut to three, so instead of leaving some stuff out they decided to cram it all into one season. The Zava thing had a chance to be really good with time, but they didn't have the time to give it. The Keely storyline is the same thing, if all that happens over a season and a half, we are all okay with it, but it took way to much time out of this season. Also, the Roy flirtation with the teacher, that would have been great over time, but instead it ends without it really being explored because they don't have the time to dedicate to it. It is really to bad, the outside of Ted all these characters deserve more time to explore them, but without Ted, the show won't work, and i am guessing Jason Sudakis doesn't want to do it anymore.

Makes sense. In general, I felt the show was at its best when Ted was more involved...however it does have some amazing support characters. I think the casting of Rupert was genius...really plays the part well.

Agreed with this. The front half of the season was weak, especially everything to do with Keeley's PR firm (I love her character, I just didn't need a full separate side story like that).

The last half of the season was great. I hate leaving these characters, but for the most part they wrapped it up well.
Yeah Keeley is great but not the main character. And her friend that she hired added nothing to the story imo. I like the Keeley story arc of setting out on her own and growing that but it just was too front and center for a bit.

They say they always had this main story planned for 3 seasons. I think they just didnt have much for Keeley planned after the first season but she became a popular character so they felt forced to write stuff for her

We never got to "The Man in the High Castle" when it came out. Is it worth a watch?

I watched it and enjoyed it throughout, however the first 2 seasons are clearly the best. The series fades as it goes on and I find the ending to be appallingly stupid.

Just finished The Big Door Prize on Apple. Highly recommend, very funny and an interesting take on a mystical mystery.

My wife gives me flack for watching WWE every once in a while on Monday nights. Wonder if I should return the favor to her on the Vanderpump rules reunion show??

I'm a couple of episodes behind on Ted Lasso, but I am having trouble even watching it. It's become a damn afterschool special. I want to see it through since the finale is approaching, but am really struggling to care.

Felt the same about ted lasso, it was a struggle to finish but the second to last episode was amazing even if it was rushed.

Has anyone watched all of Black Bird on Apple+? I watched the first two episodes on a flight to Montreal last week and the start is very intriguing, but was surprised that I hadn't heard anyone talk about it.

I also saw the start of Bad Sisters that looked ok too.

Are either worthwhile?
I thought both were fantastic. I probably liked Bad Sisters more but both were really well done. For me they both felt like series that were really self contained in the one season and shouldn't continue, but I heard they might be making another season of Bad Sisters.
