life, love and hijinks
Overall: similar to season 1 and 2, this had the mockumentary feel where Zik, the main protagonist, talked to the camera directly interspersed with other scenes. The first season was a crack comedy with a few poignant moments, I rated it a 9. The second season was a bit more serious and didn't hook me as much so I gave it an 8. This season had a ton of funny parts but also had serious plotlines as well. I think for having probably little to no budget, they did a nice job with the production. Watched on YouTube (Fourson Production).Content Warnings: non con video taking/posting, drug addiction, pet death
What I Liked:
- some favorite characters returned, his friend Radar from season 1 and also Barbra is back!!!
- many hilarious moments during this season
- sweet moments
- caring/supportive friend group
Room For Improvement:
- a brief montage from the last season (or 2) might be helpful to remind viewers what has happened previously
- I wasn't into the running gag about the one character's sexuality
- wished they'd subtitle the bloopers at the end
- hoping for a season 4 because that was kind of open/cliffhanger
- I didn't deduct points, but I think the very irregular airing schedule hurts their views and it can be difficult to remember what happened earlier in the season

Good-bye Old Friends!
Watching the final installments of this trilogy, though, was like going back to your high school reunion. Filled with fond memories worn with age, and maudlin, all at the same time. It was also like finding out that your best friend from back when, had passed away. As with all things that end, there is sadness in the journey to revisiting this story. While it floods you with vivid memories and allows you to fondly remember the highlights, it was also traveling towards a conclusion to an inevitable finality. Hence, it permits you to properly languish and prepare for what is going to happen. The appeal of this series is that it is a saga about individuals who are misfits, struggling to find not only their place in society but more importantly also trying to find themselves and who they are. All are astonishingly lonely for a variety of reasons, mostly centering around being gay. Or being different. Painfully hard especially in a society that craves conformity. No doubt, anyone who watches this series will find at least one character that they can identify with and follow their path as the one closest to their own. This series, actually the whole trilogy, has a way of making all these characters quirky but so, so human and thus vulnerable. We understand them all from the beginning. We get to see, perceive, discern, and sense each even if only a number of them are with us briefly. No one here is different from us. No one. They are us.Was this review helpful to you?
