I'm glad to see someone defending the third season. I thought the characters were better developed than in either of the first two seasons even though the show didn't quite stick the landing with the ending as well as they did with Jennifer Coolidge (sorry) in season 2.
The awfulness of the Duke University family was well realized if difficult to watch, with the Parker Posey character and Saxon (the worst kind of WASP?) being especially good at being awful. I also enjoyed Piper weighing enlightenment and organic rice in the balance and opting for the rice.
I was pulling for Rick and Chelsea even though I think you're on target about the broken-bird issue. Aimee Lou Wood's expressiveness kept making me think of Giulietta Masina. She was excellent.

Thank you!! This season really showed who loves character-driven stories and who doesn’t 😂
Loved this breakdown / take! Hadn't considered the monkey metaphor. 🙈🙉🙊
It was another moment where I did the “Leo point” lol!
