Spoiler-Free Review of “Who Killed Sara?” Season 3 on Netflix: Goes off the deep end, but still a fun binge-watch!

*This is a spoiler-free review so feel free to read on!*

“Very few of us are what we seem to be…”

Who Killed Sara? season three premiered on Netflix on May 18th 2022 with seven episodes available to stream now. The series stars Manola Cardona, Alejandro Nones, Carolina Miranda, Ximena Lamadrid and Eugenio Siller. Each episode runs for approximately 40-45 minutes.

Season three of the Mexican crime series, ¿Quién mató a Sara? still centers around Alex’s journey of revenge, as he gets closer and closer to the truth about what really happened to Sara in this action-packed conclusion.

Here is the trailer:

Who Killed Sara? is one of the most addicting series I have ever watched, but does it give fans the satisfying ending they have been craving? Let’s find out…

The Pros:

We learn the truth about what really happened to Sara…

There will be no spoilers in this review, but the final season does a solid job of answering all of our questions. It fills in the blanks and reveals every sliver of detail relating to Sara and what actually happened to her. This series is infamous for its crazy cliffhangers and you will get plenty of those throughout the episodes, but once you get to the end, you’ll finally know the truth.

Plenty of action and crazy reveals.

I watched all seven episodes in one day! I could not stop watching and I had to know what happened. Season three keeps up the fast pace and gives us plenty of shocking moments along with lots of action too. It did a good job of toning down some of the unnecessary sub-plots as well so that we could really focus on the main mystery at the core of the series.

The Cons:

Goes off the deep end with a conspiracy filled plot I’m not sure I needed…

The magic of this series lies within the whodunnit mystery approach. Just when you think you have everything figured out, another curve ball is thrown your way. Season three ditches the whodunnit mystery approach (although the mystery will still be solved) and focuses more on this outrageous conspiracy plot that didn’t land as well. I think this series tried too hard to stretch past season two and perhaps things could have been wrapped up before then…

So am I in or out?

I’m in!

Season three may get a little bit crazy, but it was still really fun to binge-watch and there were plenty of reveals that were shocking and exciting. It was certainly a fun ride watching this series and this show will forever be known as the binge-watcher’s dream for me.

Spoiler-Free Review of “Ozark” season 3 on Netflix: Edge of Your Seat Perfection

**This is a spoiler-free review so feel free to read on!**

Netflix certainly has us covered with plenty of new shows, seasons, and movies to help us during social distancing, but they really hit it out of the park with the latest season of Ozark.

Ozark season 3 premiered on Netflix on March 27th 2020 with 10 new episodes (Approximately 60 minutes in length). It stars Jason Bateman, Laura Linney, Julia Garner, Janet McTeer, and Tom Pelphrey.

If you have never seen the show before, it channels a real Breaking Bad feel. Marty Byrde is forced to move his family from Chicago to the Missouri Ozarks in order to launder money for the drug cartel.

Each season focuses on different business ventures that Marty must obtain in order to successfully launder the money to appease his boss and protect his family, leading to scandal, murder, and secrets along the way.

I am a fan of the series and was eager to see where the Byrde family would invest their time and money next. A casino seemed like the perfect place, but we quickly learn that this may not be so easy when competitors and the FBI begin to stir up some trouble for the Byrde family.

The show is fantastic, but the episodes are super long and sometimes can drag here and there. However, season 3 absolutely picks up the pace while introducing us to some new characters. But does it do enough to stand out from its prior seasons? Let’s find out…

The Pros:

New character dynamics light up the screen.

I am a huge fan of Ruth Langmore and will continue to root for her against all odds. Seriously, she’s the best. However, I was beyond thrilled when we got some new characters on the show to really spice things up and to develop some of our other characters even more.

I am going to highlight Wendy’s brother, Ben, who comes to visit the Byrde family. Tom Pelphrey is beyond brilliant playing this role and he also helps us see even more layers from both Ruth and Wendy. Season 3, episode 9 was probably the best episode I have witnessed on the show and I think that both Pelphrey and Linney deserve an Emmy for their performances.

 I still have chills from it…

It was also nice to see other characters develop more. Charlotte and Jonah actual earn their own story-lines, which I appreciated, as they interact with Helen’s rebellious daughter, Erin.

The casino background is a nice change of scenery.

We’ve seen Marty invest in a restaurant and a strip club, but I thought the casino was really a bold choice.

I have to say that Ruth did an amazing job running the floor and was not afraid to ruffle any feathers if anyone tried to mess with her.

Of course the casino captures the attention of the FBI, which makes things more complicated for the Byrde family, but I was thoroughly invested in all of the schemes and secrets behind the scenes here, which was a welcomed change of business for the Byrde family.

Fast paced edge of your seat moments and cliffhangers.

Every episode had something new and exciting. I was never bored throughout season 3 and the final moments of the last episode will leave you in complete shock. It’s that good. I really appreciated how much this show adapted to keep the pace going steady, as it had the tendency to slow down quite a bit in seasons 1 and 2.

Bravo!

The Cons:

The Darlene and Wyatt scenes…

So, while I thought a lot of the new character relationships and dynamics were necessary and intriguing, we don’t need to pair everyone up and we don’t need unnecessary sex scenes with certain characters that really leave a bad taste in your mouth.

Sometimes I think certain characters should really just be abandoned if they don’t further the plot and we don’t need to have them in every scene for them to make a difference.

So am I in or out?

I’m in! Since a lot of my favorite shows are delaying production and release, I was beyond pleased to be able to binge-watch Ozark season 3 all in one weekend. This series blends family drama and crime thrills seamlessly. Each episode leaves you wanting more and the finale gave us one of the most shocking cliffhangers I have seen in a while.

Season 3 was my favorite season yet! More please!
