I enjoyed seasons 1 and 2, and even when I heard they were recasting the lead, I still had high hopes for season 3. I've liked Marsha Thomason in other series and thought she would be a good fit. But I was wrong. Not her as an actress, but the character they decided to create for her. Season 3 is just a total mess. She's not good at her job, not good with her kids, and not good with her partner and partner's daughter. As an example ( there are dozens). In one scene, she gets her nose bloodied, and instead of cleaning up her face, and changing her shirt to protect her kids and new family from seeing her like that, she just rolls into dinner late bleeding and with blood on her clothes. It's all so "look at me". In another scene, after complaining she can't connect with her partners' kid, the kid tries to engage her in a conversation, for the first time, and she just runs her off and then sighs as if she is bothered. It just goes on and on at home and work. She's not good at anything, including simple things like talking to people.
Watch seasons 1 and 2, and pretend the series ends there.
