Almost home Sweet Home

Season 2 made the huge blunder that The Walking Dead did by splitting off a whole group of characters that miraculously have great chemistry together and added tons of new characters with much less interesting storylines instead of further developing the characters that had on going potential from season 1. When the season 2 characters and storylines were eliminated throughout season 3, it was a relief really. It's just that doing so took up all the screen time when they should have used at least left half the episodes to properly conclude the stories of the Sweet Home OGs.

It was absolutely fantastic to finally see Hyun Su, Eun Yu, Eun Hyeok back together. It's a such a bummer that the rest of the Sweet Home OGs like Yi Kyung and Jin Ok get killed off, especially the latter in the most unceremonious way. All of the OG crew were the heart of the show and deserved to get the screen time back together. I really enjoyed the storyline of Hyun Su's alternate personality. He's so funny getting a whole haircut and new outfit. Even though he wants to be intimidating and ruthless, he's weak for Eun Yu, because Cha Hyun Su at heart is.

It would have been amazing to also see the journey of neohuman Eun Hyeok finding his love for his precious sister again, his friendship with Hyun Su. Eun Yu's monsterization process and subsequent relearning of her feelings as well as neohuman, the community they build into the new Sweet Home, and Hyun Su and Eun Yu finally acknowledging their feelings for each other. Even Yi Kyung's kid's next form. There is so much left that it could have been a season 4. They didn't even have enough time for a proper montage and just had image stills instead and the three on the roof top. The show deserved at least two more episodes like the first season to explore a bit more before closing out.
