While the first two seasons were decent TV (maybe even above average), season 3 is unwatchable due to it being transformed to a political agenda.

As many people pointed out, there is absolutely no need to change the ark of a character even in an original series in order to acommodate the personal circumstances of the character. The actor can either retain his original role, be replaced, or the character written out If there is too much incompatibility (for whats worth, I think Elliot couldve easily retained his role as Vanya).

On the other hand, doing this with a show which draws from an established lore seems absolutely mental. What the hell were they thinking?

Wont finish season 3 for sure (not even sure if I should finish this episoade tbh) and there seems to be a general consensus: season 3 is bad all around. Hopefully this gets cancelled and maybe companies will refrain from ruining decent TV shows for the sake of some idiotic political agenda.
