I was expecting the worse for this season 3 opener but it was actually pretty decent. Maybe they learned something from the terrible second season, but they managed to keep it focused on the whole point of the story, the resident alien, the central premise for the story, the main bit, and less of the boring antics of small northern towns and their not that interesting people.
Some interesting developments came, although they weren't massive, I liked that our anti hero was doing day jobbing at an underground base, I liked the grey, not sure what the kids were up to but they didn't come out of the 2 year hiatus well,
The show isn't as dead and buried as it looked at the end of season 2, I hope they don't mess it up.
