    They f*** it up. It was absolutely perfect for 2 seasons, but the 3rd season in, we have the following happening:
    prolonged scenes with forced suspense; annoying actors; characters which are hard to care for (the supposed protagonists also feel forced); story telling is more random; overall scenery cheapness and bad acting all over the place.
    Even the quality of narrative speech is down    They f*** it up. It was absolutely perfect for 2 seasons, but the 3rd season in, we have the following happening:

    Even the quality of narrative speech is down - too much reverberation in the voice.
    It's safe to say that the high standard to which the first two seasons were made, is no longer here. One more example of how natural corporation-policy degradation happens for any well established product, at some point in time. For these, once cult series, this point starts to get really obvious about after 3 episodes of season 3.
    Definitely watchable but average at best.    … Expand

    Not a great season, show should have ended with Pablo dead. They also ruined this season by hiring so many known tv actors, including newman from seinfeld. Just an awful season, the script sucks and forced too.

    Thankfully, those voice-overs seem fewer this season, the better to concentrate on the show’s action, which is frequently startling and absorbing.

    I think by the last of the six episodes I watched, I was more engaged than at any point in the first two seasons, despite the lack of Moura. If you're a Narcos fan, stick with the show through the place-setting opening and know that it finds its footing.

    If that seemed like bravado at the time, the third season of Narcos has demonstrated that it's capable of reloading, recasting and, dramatically speaking, delivering the same high.
