It was good the second half, a nice ending that wrapped everything up.

Wrong

Nothing was concluded in any of the first half of the season's storylines. The action/drama/etc. totally fell flat in the second half too. First half of the season at least has a fun horror/mystery type of vibe

Damn you have horrific taste.

The first half was straight up boring.

I watched this series out of obligation tbh, I liked the first season but every one after that was a chore.

The first half of the season was a ball ache to get through, it was repetitive (honestly, I felt like they could have copy and pasted most of Clay's scenes since they just hit the same notes over and over) and none of the central conflicts really worked out. Winston fell flat as an antagonist, Diego was a villain that basically retrod old ground but had a redemption arc in the end and Monty's sister felt like a missed opportunity. Honestly, the season was a bust until the Lockdown episode and then every episode after that was compelling.

Spoiler:

The last episode had quite an effect on me for reasons I'd rather not say. I never expected this show which I've derided a lot to get under my skin as it did. I have mixed feelings about it really, Justin's death was emotional but I also think it was just one act of cynical cruelty too far for the show and for a show with a message, not giving Justin of all characters a happy ending didn't feel right. Justin, Jessica and Tyler should have all gotten happy endings considering the subject matter of their plotlines and it just feels wrong that Justin didn't. They killed him off for an emotional gut punch and, while it was a good one (I was pretty much weeping for the first half of the last episode), it felt needless. The writers wanted their tears and they got them but it didn't feel earned.

Still, it was a strong finish, the season as a whole is mostly weak due to the utter tedium of it's first half but I did really appreciate the second half despite my mixed feelings on Justin's death.

i know, she had a role in season 2 though as hallucination/ghost


apparently she had said she still needs to watch season 3 herself too, since filming commitments for that new one ''Cursed'' she has been very busy with

she still has good contacts with all of other cast and crew members though
