Season 3, set two years after S2.is here. Its all on iplayer and started last Friday on bbc1.

I'm enjoying it as much as I did the first two!

I'm watching it too and I do enjoy it, but I don't think I like Jesse and Tom together. I wonder if it's because we haven't seen much happiness other than the montage at the start of S3?
I've only watched half of S3, but I like Liam!

I agree - they don't seem to make each other happy. Liam is lovely - he will be a lovely husband for someone someday@

Kate is is annoying!

Definitely some forced situations where people act in ways they wouldn't if they were normal, and perhaps I've seen enough of those?

No, I agree they don't seem to be happy together so why revisit??
It seemed in the montage the implication was that Jesse didn't want children and that started the downward trajectory for them, but would that have changed?
Any deep conversations between them quickly get shifted to 'I'm the victim' or 'oh so you're saying this...' when it's obvious that isn't what they were saying.

I dunno, it's an easy watch, but I think I'll be a bit pissed if Jesse and Tom end up together when I've seen nothing of them being a good thing.

Finishing this off now.

Fundamentally Jessie is a bit fucked up, I've binged this and some of their rows were ludicrous

I agree I don't necessarily think they suit.

Though the ending was in certain ways to be expected, I don't think the show works as a whole

Liked to have seen more resolution with her friends -it was all too quick romance arc was right but needed the other bits to make it make sense

Just finished it.
All a bit smoltzy.
I don't care about Tom anymore.
Not sure I want another series.

I started watching an episode whilst on holiday - as couldn't get netflix to work .
I took a while to get into it and I am not sure I really liked the main characters . I did get drawn into it and I was pleased that season 3 came out when I had just finished season 2 .

I still found the main characters annoying . I did wonder why Tom didn't seem to have any friends and seemed to adopt Jessie's friends even when they weren't together .

The last two episodes reminded of one of the Sex and the City Episodes although to be fair given the ages of the characters it was one of life's events for that age group .

I think I would like to see another season but equally not sure where the plot could go .
