    If you’ve only mostly liked the show before, odds are you will love the all-new eight episodes that dropped on Netflix. ... In Season 3, Shipka has finally infused her character with a full-time sense of fun and sass.

    The character growth of Part 3 is simply put, delicious. The emotional payoffs of each journey keep the show from slipping into WTF!?! territory and firmly ground CAOS as a show with something to say outside of quippy one-liners.

    A cheeky meditation on the lust for power and the internal struggle between good and evil in us all, the series does exceptionally well when it chooses to eschew the doldrums of mortality for dark and delicious occultism.

    TL;DR - The only reason I started watching this show was because I heard that S03 was going to be dealing with Eldridcth Terrors and Old Gods,TL;DR - The only reason I started watching this show was because I heard that S03 was going to be dealing with Eldridcth Terrors and Old Gods, I watched Seasons 1 and 2 just so I could get to my fix for Lovecraftian Lore. If you have completed the show you definitely know why my score is so low. If you haven't well lets just say on a score of 1 to 10 keep your lovecraftian lore expectations at 1 or 2.

    Even so aside from the whole old gods deal this is probably the most boring season from all three seasons sadly following the same downgrade in writing quality as Stranger Things, albeit at a much more rapid rate.
    Season 1 was surprising to me as it flowed well. Even though some of the story beats were on the lines of tried and trusted common supernatural storylines; it was nevertheless well executed and competently acted by the whole cast.
    Season two fell steep with the forced in your face, hammering on the head gender politics but the flow of the story was brisk and as before executed well enough that all the gender/politics/gender-politics plot elements did not hinder the overall experience.

    Season three however was really badly written, clearly rushed and slapped together on a crunch.
    I cant understand, if the writers felt they were short on time why did they not completely eliminate the old gods story line or at least reduce it akin to the brief and short witch hunters plotline in S02.
    It feels so bloated and unnecessary as there are many leftover elements from S02 that were expanded on which would have sufficed and worked well with more attention to it. The competition for the crown, Lucifer/Nick's storyline, trying to regain lost powers was all the season should have focused on and used as Primary Story; this was all interesting stuff that should have been fleshed out more.
    The pagans and the old gods should have been just a mini story beat to set up a glorious fully focused S04 on Eldritch and Lovecraftian Lore.
    Somehow they managed to put so much into this season yet made the pacing feel like molasses by focusing on too much and nothing at all simultaneously. This was a really badly written season even though they pulled all the political agendas to a minimum it still feels far inferior than S02.    … Full Review »

    What's with the singing? It's ridiculous.

    And the lack of technology shows they're trying to make it feel like it's set in the 60s, but the    What's with the singing? It's ridiculous.
