I can’t believe I didn’t even mention Mandy Patinkin in my review of this show. If I recall he’s great in it (he’s great in everything.) While my review is mostly positive I stopped watching the series after this season. Has anybody seen the third season?

The story arc in the first three series dips towards the end IMO, but all the subsequent series are very good.
Thanks for commenting. My memory tells me that by the end of the second season, things were getting a little ridiculous and I was afraid things were going to get worse in season three. I think the reviews of S3 were not very kind as well. But I do think people said the following seasons were better. Your comment is making me put the show back on my list of things to watch.
