    After a long awaited 3rd season, I'm sad to say I was rather disappointed. This season, as a whole, was far more of a mixed bag than the first two seasons, which I consider some of the best TV produced in the last decade.

This season, as a whole, was far more of a mixed bag than the first two seasons, which I consider some of the best TV produced in the last decade. It has some highs (Three Slaps and The Old Man and the Tree stood out to me as great episodes in particular), but the rest of the season, at many points, just doesn't feel the same to me. A lot of the humor that made the first two seasons stand out got sidelined for more of the horror elements, which is not a bad thing, but does make some points of the season feel dry. The main cast gets sidelined for over half the season as well, which is a bold decision but one that ultimately doesn't work. Many people (myself included) loved the first two seasons for the leads, and for them to not even be in 5 of the episodes feels wrong and like fans of the show got ripped off. Finally, while some episodes feel unique in their thematic elements, others feel very much like they retread on themes of previous seasons. Overall, I hope for better things in the final season (and hopefully a return to Atlanta the city, rather than hopping all over Europe), but I must say the triumphant return of the series feels more like a roller coaster than consistent quality.… Expand

    Is this a sketch? A meta-critique of cancel culture? Or is Neeson just standing up and staying sorry? It is possibly all three at once. Above all, it is darkly, hysterically funny. And that is the genius of Atlanta – a comedy that is full of horror and bleak chuckles.

    Opening a new season with such a narrative non-sequitur would be a bold move for any other show, but here it makes perfect sense. This is television as likely to take inspiration from internet memes and 90s kids cartoons as from a Palme d’Or-winner’s canon.

    It goes without saying that it is a show with a strong flavour and it won’t be for everyone, but Atlanta is a true great of the form, making other comedy-dramas feel like the toy you get inside a Kinder Egg. Atlanta is the Great American Novel trapped inside a flatscreen TV.
