Tea, this was my only major complaint. The acting was kind of bad in that scene and it didn't even get to pay off much because Rick immediately dies

The scene with Piper and Victoria had me on the FLOOR. Her talking about the food not being organic had me on the floor.

The finale had some great moments and I liked the season overall but there were definitely parts where it felt like it was just going on autopilot a bit. I hope they can keep it fresh for season 4, I'm sure it'll still be enjoyable no matter what because the premise and vibe of the show are just so good, but there's definitely valid criticisms for this season that hopefully they can improve on. Most of all I just hope next season doesn't have as many inconsequential and pointless characters . Still a top tier show regardless though.

OMG DARK MODE BEING BACK YASSSSITY YAS 

 

what a great finale!! holy sh*t the fact that Lochlan survives that makes me so happy

 

I'm so glad Belinda and her very attractive son got their happy ending! and I'm so glad that all three blonde ladies survived in the end  I think the reveal of Rick's dad being his dad (which I had suspected since like half of the season ago) was a bit too quick in all that crossfire to really have it sink in well, but otherwise the episode was so satisfying as a conclusion! I'm so sad Chelsea died but the cinematography was seriously killer and they ate that. wowowowowow I'm very impressed!

[Ciel]

Overall this season was a chop for me but the finale did have it's moments. 

 

Laurie's speech was excellent...I'm sure lots relate. Definitely got me emotional.

 

Belinda switching immediately once that deposit hit

Rick dragged Chelsea down the whole season. Way too sweet for him but I suppose the foreshadowing was there especially the dinner scene. 

 

I'm torn on if Loch passing away would have been more interesting or not...it's already a wrap for that family but I also feel like why would he nor the Dad not have cleaned the blender out before using it

It was honestly my favorite part of the finale.  The vindication on Victoria's face had me cracking up so hard. 
 

 

 

[Donquizote]

That was a bad finale and quite predictable (except that messy father revelation)

 

I believe Mike White is running out of idea

[Donquizote]

Hope the clown comes back to bite Belinda

Can't wait for that ***** to get her karma next season

[Universo]

Carrie Coon made me cry with The Leftovers and now with this show 

 

honestly i was so tense this whole episode so i can say the finale worked for me… it wasn't the best season (S2 is still peak) but i thought it was good overall

 

[ctlp27]

Great season. Coon has the memorable monologue of the season. So perfectly written (and great storyline the blond bob). 
 

As to the father reveal, that's kind of the point. It's too late. He didn't open and kept it closed to all, despite numerous attempts by Chelsea and the therapist. 
 

Wonder which themes will be explored next season. 

[slik]

Give Carrie Coon the Emmy now

[CandyCoatedClouds]

And to think, Chelsea would be alive and well if she had stayed by Saxon's side. Also at least She and Rick got to spend forever together after all.

 

Also to me this season symbolized that everything comes in threes, there's always snakes in the grass (even ones that don't look like snakes) and money changes people. Belinda switched up quick once she got two coins to rub together and continued the cycle that Tanya started with her. Poor Pornchai.

 

Also I feel like this is closing the chapter on GregGary's story. I feel as though we won't see him in the next season. 

 

Lastly I felt like a mother pleading for Lochlan to come back to life.

The way everyone else saw that reveal coming like six episodes ago 

[Orsay]

The 3 white ladies having a happy ending after narrowly escaping death… yeah they carried the season kinda 

[Thuggin]

Belinda essentially giving the same speech Tanya gave her  a little bit of money hits and suddenly they need time to "process"!

 

Laurie's speech made me so emotional  I'm glad the three ladies got a happy ending when I was expecting their friendships to fall apart.

 

Chelsea going out like that pissed me off so bad 

 

Also, it wasn't lost on me that all the people who died fell in the water - Lochlan was close, he passed out by the water and envisioned himself swimming in the water on the brink of death only to wake up. Really drove home the Buddhist metaphor of the droplets returning to the water upon death. Very beautiful that the dad realized life was about more than material possessions even if it did take him almost killing his entire family to see it.

[NoOneDiesFromLove]

Not gonna lie 

 

Spoiler

The bit where Lochlan dies from drinking the poison actually took me by surprise and kept yelling at the screen to throw up. I'm so glad he was brought back

And the final deaths were kinda predictable but overall it was a very satisfying conclusion. The storyline with the three ladies was the best one. I was actually afraid one of them was gonna bite it.
 

Season 2 still clears though. 

[Donquizote]

And Lisa is the most useless character.

She was just there looking pretty all the time

[supaspaz]

Lochlan choosing to become straight and almost dying for it. Toxic masculinity kills!

[supaspaz]

But anyway, that finale was not good. Went off the rails with that corny ass shootout.

[beyonceparkwood]

This was a great season. Just like earlier season, some bits of the storyline I just couldn't care less about. Overall, still great tho. Loved the Ratcliffe and 3 blondes storyline. Lochy surviving 🥹

[kimberly]

Carrie Coon 

Belinda getting paid 

Rick dying  

Valentin's hot ass being saved 

 

but the episode overall fell a bit flat for me. finalizing my verdict as Season 3 being undoubtedly worse than Season 2, but slightly better than Season 1.

[GipJo]

In the 2025 of TV blooming season, this is so mediocre, might not even in the top 10 of the year so far.

[flower moon]

im sorry but i am NOT happy with belinda... she did exactly what tanya did to her

"i am just happy to be at the table" oooh laurie ate the whole episode with that they coulda called scene/cut and rolled the credits and i'd have been satisfied.

im was sad the happy british girl got got

i kinda wanted to to see more of the familys reaction to finding out their new situation



overall the finale was fine but probably my least fav season of the three.

[bjorn]

Some things i found unrealistic 

 

The way they showed Lochy "dying" from less than a cup of diluted fruit shake. Like why even have those trees growing at a resort if you'd die from it that easily. 

 

Also why would Gaitok just shoot Rick without knowing for sure who the gun man was? Especially after seeing a man carrying a dead body like that. Didnt make any sense. Sirtala didn't really point him out she just said "shoot him he's getting away" or whatever. So i would be looking for someone trying to run away not a "couple" who looked like victims.

 

Walter Goggins acting when Chelsea got shot was SO BAD i was shocked. The "No no no" was honestly so bad. It kinda threw me off because his acting thorugout the season was pretty good imo.

 

Overall i thought it was a decent finale. Season 2 is superior though.
