This season has been excellent. Maybe the best season so far.
Mahershala Ali is amazing in the lead role, playing a character at 3 different points in his life with ease. But the unsung hero of the show is Stephen Dorff as his partner.
Great murder mystery with a lot of heart and emotion from the lead roles.
Check it out!

I don't have HBO, I'll have to see if it's on Netflix.
Currently watching Ozark, I love Jason Bateman!

I checked. Looks like it's on Amazon Prime though. Through HBO. Pretty sure you’d still have to pay for a subscription for hbo one way or another.

I preferred the first two seasons. The 3rd season had too many flashbacks for me. The woman playing Ali's character's wife was definitely "wifey material"...understated beauty.

I think the 3rd season suffers from the same problem as the 1st season. Both had a great story going with some top notch acting but then the conclusion was practically an afterthought. Like, "Oh, I guess we should wrap this up." I thought both endings MacGuffins which was a bad way to go about it.
I haven't seen the second season.

I feel ya on the third season. The finale should have a "payoff". Instead, it just faded away quietly.

I think the first season ended nicely. Not a disappointment at all.
The third season did kind of end with a whimper but I still liked the way it ended with Ali's character's dementia preventing him from identifying the missing girl when he met her. Very tragic.
The show is more about the relationships of the police involved than the plot, though.

In the first season the guy got caught by a green painted house. It just came out of nowhere. We had all this intricate plot and it was a house painting that broke it. For me that was one helluva MacGuffin to wrap things up with.
I get that both the 1st and 3rd seasons were heavily character driven but the plot ultimately suffered in the end for both.
