My reaction
Concept:
Story: Painfully predictable.
Characters:
Dialog: The show's pretty much become a parody of itself. Lots of hilarious stuff that's not meant to be funny.
Pacing: Slow to get started, and when it does get exciting, it's over too quickly.
Cinematography:
Special effects/design:

Music:
Subjective Rating: 6/10 (Okay, ). Much better than season two, but that's not too hard.
