The makers of the show seem to have completely forgotten what make the first two seasons of this show special. While on the surface it appears like more of the same, really it has lost everything that made it great. Just watch the first two seasons and stop after that.

The spark and humour and intelligence in writing of the first two seasons is just completely gone, what's left just feels an empty dreary slog. You're just waiting for it to finally go somewhere, whereas the first two seasons were so much more entertaining and interesting along the way, and really the plot and final twist was never what it was about.

The series really has fallen, it started slipping a little in season 2, but season 3 I just gave up watching it completely.

Hard to describe just how far it's fallen from its wonderful beginnings. Season 1 was just super-uplifting, season 2 still good though definitely starting to lose it's way... season 3 has completely lost it's magic and original message, now just full of cheap dishonest political jabs and vacuous characters, with most of the heart that made it so special in the beginning gone .... the corporate and political ideological creep seems to have completed it's takeover of the show.
