Season 3 is still watchable and interesting for the most part, but the show is definitely getting overly preachy. Sad to see this kind of deterioration in a nice show.
Preachiness doesn't normally bother me too much, but sometimes the dialog is so blatantly pointed, they might as well just turn to the camera like a 1950's advertising pitch. It's like verbal product placement.
Even some of the emotional outbursts, while well-acted, just didn't make sense in the story line. "Oh, I think we need a tearful outburst here. Never mind it's a non sequitur."
I'm constantly reminded of the old show, "7th Heaven," which I eventually stopped watching, because the dialog was so blatantly just a sermon.
