Why did everything go so wrong in season 3

Why did everything go so wrong in season 3.

It's fine but not as good as the other two.

I don't mind it.

Varga's fun. I like his actor. Ewan's fine.

Getting pretty sick of the "le epic innocent virtuous female cop" meme they keep pushing though.

would get a 10/10 if varga caps her dumb ass in a ditch somewhere just because it's not the same as the other two seasons wherein le epic virtuous all-knowing cop that somehow gets away with endlessly disobeying their superiors (which would get an actual cop fired) saves the day in the end.

So far this season seems a bit rougher/darker than the other ones so who knows. Would be nice.

I don't like Varga at all. he seems like the writers were trying too hard to top the villains from previous seasons, and in the process managed to completely miss what made those villains interesting.

Ray died

DROPPED.

Professor Lupin is my favorite villain so far.

Swango didn't die

DROPPED.

I hope Varga kills her. Eats her. And then vomits the remains.

...

Ray's retarded death pretty much sealed the deal as this season not only being inferior to the first two, but actively bad.

Well, at least it got the plot moving.

and only six episodes in
