Didn't like the ending. Season had some really good moments but might be the worst of the 3.

This season was just too "Narcos" for me. Glad this is it. They really botched ready-made storylines. Meaning they did the Hollywood thing and had to have a "savior" and "do-gooders" to balance out the story. Again, they should've just told the stories of the Narcos and let them be the central points of the season. Yes, there were many other things that occurred during that period, but the series is named Narcos.
Next up for Netflix, hopefully they don't blow the Griselda Blanco story. Even though, they casted Sofia Vergara in the lead role as her....

Sofia Vergara To Portray Griselda Blanco In Netflix Limited Series

Sofia Vergara is set to portray notorious drug queenpin Griselda Blanco in a new Netflix limited series.
The six-episode series Griselda chronicles the real-life of Griselda Blanco, who created one of the most profitable cartels in history. A devoted mother, Blanco’s lethal blend of charm and unsuspecting savagery helped her expertly navigate between family and business leading her to become widely known as the “Black Widow”.
The series comes from Empire and Justified writer Ingrid Escajeda, who is showrunner, writer, and executive producer as well as Eric Newman, Doug Miro, Andrés Baiz, and Carlo Bernard— the creative team behind Narcos – but it is unrelated to Netflix’s drug thriller franchise.
Vergara will also serve as executive producer of the project with Luis Balaguer for Latin World Entertainment. Colombian native Baiz will direct all episodes.
“Griselda Blanco was a larger-than-life character whose ruthless but ingenious tactics allowed her to rule a billion dollar empire years before many of the most notorious male kingpins we know so much about,” Vergara said. “We are thrilled to have found the perfect partners in Eric, Andrés and Netflix to help us bring this story of her life to the screen.”
Newman added, “Griselda Blanco has long been a passion project for Sofia and we are grateful that she and her partners at LatinWe have chosen us to help her tell that story. Sofia is a brilliant talent and her passion combined with a fantastic story from Doug and Ingrid, and the amazing Andrés Baiz at the directing helm, means we have a very exciting series to share with audiences.”
Peter Friedlander, VP, UCAN scripted series at Netflix, said, “Eric Newman has deftly brought to life among the most dynamic characters and stories on screen today. We’re excited to continue on this creative path with him and for this collaboration with Sofia Vergara — a force in entertainment and a world-beloved talent. With an incredible team at the helm — we can’t wait for the world to see how Ingrid Escajeda, Doug Miro, and Andrés Baiz take on the twists and turns of Griselda Blanco’s epic story.”
Blanco burst onto the pop culture scene after her exploits were highlighted in the 2006 documentary Cocaine Cowboys and its sequel two years later from Billy Corben. She was portrayed by Catherine Zeta-Jones in the Lifetime biopic Cocaine Godmother in 2018.
Mothafukka just thank god it isn’t Jennifer Lopez
Mayo definitely the mastermind. So is Chapo overrated?

Yeah they definitely made it seem as such
It seems like the government doesn't even try to get Mayo as much as they did Chapo. And they actually extradited him. They didn't even do that with Gallardo and dem.
Givethanks

What's next on the list for crime dramas?

Have you seen zero zero zero? If not, check it out. It sucks that they only have one season
I'm surprised there isn't anything on any Chicago gangs. A TV series about the formation of the folks and People nation would be sick, or just the BGD.
Thought this season was pretty cool.
Had some BIG action scenes… Benjamin’s bday party, the airport… those were intense and realistic
Also which I rarely see mentioned is Amado had The General Rebello via Hank on his payroll the whole time; don’t act like that wasn’t a surprise
I feel people on the meandering subplot about the girls. I mean they tied it in via Vincente (Amado’s bro), and the conclusion was… there is no conclusion because the problem was bigger than the cop thought so…
I’m not a cartel historian tho, so I don’t know how much this is falling short but it was entertaining to me
Those scenes were probably
to most because we had already seen them in the Chapo series.
I never saw the Chapo series. shyt was live to me.Those scenes were probably

I was watching gomorrah, it's so much better when the cops are a hidden menace. Like the raid on the warehouse in season 4. That scene was intense.
Even zero zero zero balanced having a cop as a main character better than narcos.
It was still enjoyable but it got boring every season getting slowed down by the cop storylines.

Yes, I seen Zero Zero Zero. Fantastic show. Might be the best cartel series I've seen since the wave took off. Excellent show but a 2nd part or season would probably not live up to the promise.
Last season was really terrible, this past season was entertaining

I didn't mind season 2. All 3 seasons are entertaining but this last one ended kind of with a thud. Also the missing girl sub plot kind of bogged down the show.
