At the end of season 2, the state of the story is:
Marty and Wendy find themselves deep in the cartel business. Their kids know everything and are pretty smart. Wendy is being pushed by the writers as being the main protagonist. She has orchestrated ways to keep the money laundering going and is now leading the way. She murdered a dude and now Marty is terrified of who she has become as she smiles and enjoys the family photo in the last scene of season 2.
Pretty damn awesome till this point. Now season 3:
Out of nowhere, Wendy's brother comes into the picture. His sole purpose is to make Wendy look like Walter White/Don Corleone as she has to murder her own brother for the FAMILY. THAT is his sole purpose and THAT is the entire season. Pathetic!
In terms of the actual story, it went nowhere. Writing and direction are weak. Cartel war could have been shown in a much better way. Marty's torture scenes were a joke. The drug lord is a joke as well. Season 1 had so much better villains like the redneck and the Mexican who dies. Season 1 was a classic and this season is nowhere near in any department.
This season was a drag and could have been avoided entirely. I am sitting at home during this lockdown with a lot of free time and still I feel like this was a waste of 9 hours.
