I cannot wait. The kids are all getting old though, they need to figure out how they are going to handle that.

I'd imagine some of the kids will probably have fairly solid acting careers, too.

If the idea is to do 4 seasons then thats probably going to be about right.

Yeah my guess is one more season

5 seasons total at max

Correct. Directors have said it will either be 4 or 5. 5 at the very most if needed.

I went from not even wanting to watch the 1st episode when the Mrs described it and how it was based solely on a bunch of kids, to watching the entire season in a span of 2 days. Shit is addicting.

Just finished. Good gawd, that was fun. It took me a few episodes to get used to how old the kids got. They got some serious money in the budget this year.

Dont know if this is technically l a spoiler or not. But damn Episode 8 was a gut punch. But yet a beautiful gut punch somehow.

It dropped? I knew it was coming, didn’t realize today.

This definitely starts slow but I agree that it's visually interesting. I'm not a fan of basically anything that happened in the first two episodes that didn't involve the male lifeguard.

Kinda obvious he’s still alive. Then the credit scene really basically confirmed it.

Unless you’re talking the Billy gut punch. I think they really did that character dirty

1st season was great, the 2nd season sucked. I wasn't going to watch season 3, do you guys think it's worth another shot (with lower expectations)?

For most of the season it was a toss up between Alexi and Robin as to who my favorite new character was, but then Suzie came in from out of nowhere to take the crown late with that one scene.

Overall I really enjoyed this season but I would say my biggest complaint would be Lucas' sister. I actually liked her in a very minor role last season but it just got to be too much this season. She annoyed the fuck out of me!

Episodes 1-3 are just kinda there. Episodes 4, 5 and 6 are as good as its ever been. 7 was alright. 8 goes all out.

As a whole, I'd give it something around a B+. At its peak its the best season but as a whole its the worst. That still balances out to being a good show.

I pretty much agree spot on.

Show really got in a groove when the groups kinda came together for their missions.

I think the best decisions were keeping Steve and Dustin together(kinda a no brainer) and bringing back Murray for a bigger role.

Only real disappointment was Billy. I get there was a “pay off”. But I think there wasn’t so much more they could have done with him moving forward. Also, he’s pretty far and away the best actor of any of the kids/young adults.

O yeah, one another major disappointment.

Will. What in the actual fuck?

Kid was legitimately relegated to background duty this whole season.

He’s also one of the best actors they got. He probably was the best of anyone in S2. And this season his role was literally.....

Bitch for 3 episodes his friends won’t play DD anymore. A potential hint he may be gay?

Then 5 episodes of him just “there”, a few lines here and there with a couple touches of the back of his neck.

There were many moments I would forget he was even with the group of 7 in the middle episodes.
