It took me a while to realize what the series would be about, but then I completely "got into" the plot. Both main characters are the exact opposite of awful "goody-goodies" and perfect "cool" types, whom I don't trust even the nose between their eyes, so I immediately liked them.

Season 3 left a little to be desired, and I consider it the weakest one so far. I was looking forward to the grim atmosphere of the previous seasons as well as a good dose of suspense, but I was put on a strict diet this time. The story had atmosphere, but not as powerful, and there was practically no tension. I didn’t like that the ending was hurried to provide enough time to set the stage for the next season. I'm not saying I was bored. Not at all. I was just looking forward to a magnificent feast and only got a vegetarian portion.

Even in the final episode, the creators were unable to surpass themselves and did not come close to the quality of the previous seasons. The third season was essentially concluded in the first half of the tenth episode, the second part only dealt with preparing the viewer for the fourth series, and now I feel strangely deceived.

The plot of the ninth episode was finally more interesting, the story finally moved forward, but it still wasn't enough for a five-star rating. In this series, I have already given a five-star rating twice because I was hoping for a proper twist, but this time I won't let myself be provoked and I will wait for the final episode.

The eighth episode brings a fairly slow pace and the story doesn't move forward much, rather it expands. The creators have so far successfully avoided building tension, they only slightly missed it at the end of the episode, which pleased me, but on the other hand, Jerry Edgar's foolish behavior disappointed me.

Well, it looks like the next episodes of the third Bosch won't get five stars from me. I'm sorry about it, but it happened again, what I complained about in the comments on previous episodes. The creators still fail to build the right atmosphere and I miss the element of suspense a lot.

The situation was similar to the previous episode, the investigation brought to light more pieces of the puzzle, people in front of and behind the camera delivered professional performances, I wasn't bored, but it lacked the juice. I still hope that something will happen that will give the story more intensity.

Okay, I like the series, but I also have to admit that compared to previous seasons, the atmosphere is not as perfect and I still miss some tension. I quietly hoped that the fifth episode would finally pick up more, but it didn't happen again. I'm not saying it was a bad episode, not at all, but it could use a little spicing up.

The theme of the fourth episode was excellent and Aunt Joan, who has always been a strong pillar for Martin to lean on in case of emergency, entertained like never before. It's strange, but even though she is not my relative, just like the doctor, I can't get the picture out of my head. Unfortunately. And as if that wasn't enough, Martin once again showed that he can announce a tragic event with an unprecedented empathy.

Interesting episode, full of more or less hidden threats, which gave the atmosphere of the third season a paranoid touch. Everyone is investigating each other, only Chief Irving is relaxed and arranging a date. Bosch's investigation forces his adversaries into their first direct action and it looks like the following episodes will be more lively.
