![]() ![]() A few useless side characters died, but the main characters are back at square 1. ![]() Nothing changed by the end of the season. On top of the silliness with the weapons, we have this character development void where no one developed in this season. On the reverse side, we now have nukes floating around because they needed something bigger than just plain ole vampires. because apparently no one thought to spend 5 seconds to click "play" to test it before going back out in the field. For instance, after creating a awesome anti-vampire weapon, the 1st that happens is that it does not work. It was largely devoid of any sort of reasoning and situations became laughable. Its a bit like Dragonball Z at this point where the good guys develop a means to fight back, only for the bad guys to get even bigger weapons, only to result in the good guys making more powerful weapons, and so on and so forth.

We're not exactly getting Aaron Sorkin level character work here, but this season explored even more backstories on its already existing characters, making us care not just for the villain(s), but even the Hispanic guy who I finally actually started to feel deserved a part in this show in the first place (but I do mostly agree with other users- we could totally lose him and it wouldn't matter). ![]() We're not The downside of critics only getting to see the first three eps of each season is that, as with the two previous seasons, they don't get to see how nutso badass things get by the end, especially with a season like this that keeps growing more epic in scale and dystopian in tone.
