I was really happy how this season went. After getting nervous by how the season started and feeling like we weren't going to get anywhere, it really went all out and we got so much lore and backstory. Very excited for S4.

    Yeah, the first half using the amnesia trope kinda made me lose interest, but damn did the last 2 episodes more than make up for it.

    I never quite hated the amnesia thing, and I felt that it ended up being important to the main plot, as opposed to just dragging out the episodes. That really saved the first half of the season for me. I didn't know how they were going to end the show withing just 1 more season, but with the pace of the second half and all the pre-silo backstory out of the way, I'm hoping S4 goes pretty non-stop resolving things.

    I was surprised to find myself feeling sympathy for Dr. Victor. He was not evil, just misguided. The "artifact" of his dead daughter's photo that he couldn't let go of....Damn. It was all for naught because he still remembers.... Hundreds of years later.

    Pure tragedy. Pure cinema.

    Yeah, I don't want to keep getting into spoiler territory for those not caught up. I'm still curious to see what happened exactly to some of the personalities in the interim period to make them do the things they ended up doing.

    The S4 trailer have a nice teaser about his that season will start now based on the events of the S3 finale, so I like that the session didn't end in cliffhanger.

    Is Collin Hanks's character still alive? Because I'd love to see him eat shit in a post apocalyptic wasteland.

    spoiler

    He appears for a second in the S4 trailer staring at news reports on a big monitor, so I can't say he's for sure alive at present, but I would say he likely is. The fact everyone was at the silos at exactly the right time seems to imply he knew what was going to happen, so I feel he's due some retribution.

    Thanks! I didn't notice that was out already. They must have filmed everything all at once .

    I feel like his scene in the trailer is a flashback, watching something that finally convinces him to start his project. But yeah, I think he’s alive for sure. Probably just sleeping longer than others so he doesn’t get too old.
