why was season 3 so terrible.


It's just so tonally different from any of the other seasons. Like, a parody of the previous two, almost a sitcom. Much of the dialogue is just joke after joke, and it integrated so many of the worst soap opera tropes. I appreciated the increased emphasis on the guards and Caputo, but aside from that and a few other light points, it feels like Jenji and company were asleep at the wheel, only interested in their own amusement. Thank Christ season four was such a major course correction.

It was more average but I don't think it was that much worse.
True, I got bored halfway, but I think that would have happened anyway.
There were some new character choices that were mixed...
