The acting, character development, writing, and cinematography in Season 3 surpassed the excellence of Seasons 1 and 2. The way some scenes were shot this season were absolutely, and I don't think I have ever used this word in a Metacritic review, breathtaking. If it goes another year without an Emmy nod of any sort i will be shocked. TEN, all the way.… Expand

It resolves the question of guilt or innocence in a way that is true to its own subtle perturbations. It deepens characters that are already complex, eliciting grudging sympathy for unappealing characters and disappointment in good ones. At the end, it perfectly balances hope and resignation, underscoring how fragile--and how essential--hope is. As in previous seasons, the writing, directing, and acting are uniformly superb, but I wish I could give this exceptional final season an "11."… Expand

Every season feels just as powerful, poetic, and transformative as the previous almost as if they filmed it all at once. This is one the most well-crafted shows on television. The writers respect the characters in such profound ways. There is simply no other show like this on television. When will Emmy start noticing? Abigail Spencer deserves a nod for one scene she nails at a dollar store managers training. next week is the finale. Tonight's fifth episode was incredible! This is an essential show.… Expand

In one sense it's a study in relationships and in another it's a mystery story and in yet another a man's philosophical journey for meaning in a lonely world. It's up to the viewer which to focus on. The writers don't want viewers picking favorites it seems, previously unlikable characters now evoke sympathy and vice versa. Just when I felt I had a grasp, it seemed to slip and I am none the wiser.
   
   A fine cast in southern gothic style, where the south looks very pretty and dressed preppily. The cinematography is as good as ever.
   It was good idea on behalf the producers to just air 6 episodes for the 3rd season, brevity is clarity after all. Even still the one aspect of the show that will not appeal to some people is the pace. It is slow, probably deliberately over slow to emphasize the mundane nature for life even when you get off death row?
   
   I have a feeling that season 4 will quicken quite a lot. My guess is that they will finish with a strong impact to reward its rather small audience for their support.… Expand
