Thus far, the best season of the show. Four more episodes of the improbably adventures of Jason Street dragged the proceedings down, but otherwise this is a season where the show both moved away from the missteps of Season 2 and evolved and expanded on many of the ideas it toyed with in Season 1. The cold war with the McCoys got a little melodramatic in parts, and Tyra's new beau felt like a character whose plot you could figure out within ten seconds of his introduction, but that cold war did create some nicely layered conflicts, Smash's storyline was superb, and many other stories, big and small in the season found the right balance. What's more, the fact that many of the main characters would be heading off to college allowed the show to explore some interesting dynamics and create some urgency and stakes off the football field as well. Overall, a superb season of television with a couple of notable lulls.
