Let's hear it! List the things Season 3 did wrong *spoilers*


Just want to say for the most part season 3 was alright, at the very least you can say it's unpredictable but perhaps not in a good planned/clever/or thought out way. But I think the misses far outweigh the hits and I know I'm not alone. So let's create that grand list!

1. Abandoning Season 1's atmosphere and plot points-- mainly I wanted more answers to the eye drops Olivia was practically addicted to. I also wanted a better integrated Ourobourous storyline and the return of that foreboding cinematic directing we used to get.

2. Chango-- do I really have to explain why this was bad? Very annoying character. What's worse is there were so many other dead characters who could've taken his place.

3. Gypsy caviar-- At the end of the day they want to tell us all this went down because of caviar? Good intention, bad idea and terrible execution. (Speaking of executions don't you have to decapitate a wearwolf's head?).


A drunk man's words are a sober man's thoughts.

1. Agree with the eye drops. That really fascinated me.
2. Shelley storyline with those random hip hop homeless crew. This show and YouTube do not mix.
3. Annie/Magdelena? I liked the character, but I feel they retconned that from last season.
4. Did the vamps lose their mind control power????
5. I was shocked at how little they spent on Spivak and Nadia.

I thought the eyedrops kept Olivia from craving blood.

I just hate how the atmosphere completely changed on the show. Must have been different writers.

Pryce not being more cautious around his mental doppelganger bothered me. His lack of super-strength to protect himself and the timing of his new love showing up just in time for Shelley to share the bad news just made his death seem more pointless rather than tragic.

Roman snapping Destiny's neck. We saw how he handled an armed Peter during a sneak attack; was he really worried that Peter was such a threat that telling him he put Destiny in a hospital was worth killing her and trying to hide the truth.

If Olivia was walking around in a diseased state (like we saw in her final scene), why did Annie get close enough to let her bite her (she had first hand knowledge about the virus)? And rather than hide out in a module, couldn't the wannabe Pryce just NOT do the transfer. Olivia was crazy, would she really know if he did the procedure right?

Shelley, being a Godfrey, couldn't she have just told the cops to stay off her property when they came to remove the homeless people?

Peter couldn't wait a month (30 FREAKIN' DAYS!), heal up (like Annie suggested), get his revenge and NOT spend the rest of his life as an animal.

Roman having to die because Peter being too much of a coward to deal with his own cousin over something he did.

So much of the season being spent on the whole gypsie issue and the cousin looking for her dead fiance, it became a detective show.

Shelley living under a bridge and hooking up with an much older guy. I got it, but it's still creepy.

Still confused about lizard's guy legend and his need for the baby.
