The show went into a coma during Season 3. The plots were slow and boring.
The subplot about their grandfather was a waste. That could've been grounds for a lot of conflict and drama but just as they wasted Henry Winkler last season, they waste Ed Asner this season.
The whole thing about Campbell Scott's illness was lukewarm at best. And then once they realize he's been poisoned, he wasn't to be seen from again.
The subplot about Divya going into debt was uninvolving. Sure, her taking on extra shifts in the hospital causing fatigue plays into the ending in which she's given Wilmer Valderrama the wrong medicine but do we really care about Wilmer's character. I don't see how his character is even part of the series.
The part about Evan's girlfriend keeping this big secret from him falls flat when we realize she's hiding the fact that her mother suffers from depression. Big deal. Why would she hide that fact?
With such mundane subplots, the series limped along. They need much better storylines in Season 4 or else the series in danger of going into cardiac arrest.
