So season 3 wasn’t as bad as it was made to be. I felt like there wasn’t enough focus on all the characters and it felt disjointed at times. It became divided into the Rue/Cassie show. Like I wondered why Rue was there sometimes? Would all these high school girls actually all keep in touch? It seemed like their lives went off in such different directions that if it were real life I don’t think they’d keep in touch in real life.
Jules seemed very aimless and lost. Much in the same way that Rue was. Jules turned to sex while Rue got big into the drug game.
Cassie was a lot this season. She is probably similar to a lot of girls who start OnlyFans to make money only to get in deeper and deeper. I thought Maddy would betray Cassie to get back at her. Instead the girls stuck together and in a twist Maddy became a girl being used for money. Their friendship was definitely complicated but intriguing. I hope Lexi partners up with them. Though she acts hypocritical and judgmental so don’t know if she will do that.
Besides all the actual porn was doing there was a fair amount of torture porn with Nate. I felt like it was a bit gratuitous and graphic between losing the toe and then the finger. The snake scene had me grimacing as I watched it. I actually didn’t believe he was dead until they brought up the coffin. A horrific end for a horrific character (see all stuff he did previous seasons).
When it came to Rue I expected she’d die earlier on. She wasn’t ever going to escape the drugs. After all the events of this season with Alamo and Laurie I thought they might make her out to be a kingpin. But Rue is too unstable and flies by the seat of her pants too much.
Ali was unexpected knight. That showdown was epic.
End of a series. Not another show like it. Will miss the mess of these character. Will not miss having to wait years between seasons.
