    Like so many Showtime comedies, Jackie leaves us feeling a bit conflicted. But the acting, caustic characters and looming consequences make Season 3 destination viewing for anyone who's already hooked--and a worthwhile pursuit for anyone still on the fence.

    I don't have much new to say about the third season of Jackie, because the show's strengths and weaknesses are the same as they've always been.

    I don't know why more people have reviewed this but I suppose it is because it isn't new, but the same sarcastically funny, but sad at the same time show. The acting is superb as is the writing and direction. I love all the characters with their witty repartee every week. I am sad it is on it's last episode this week. We need more shows like this geared for all ages and not just for the twenty somethings and immature 30 somethings, and hopefully not immature 40 yr old's.… Expand

    The first season was fantastic. The second season was good. This season was un-even all over the place and generally not very good at all. Sorry, Showtime. The horrible show you call The Big C, the cancellation of United States of Tara and the degrading of Nurse Jackie have eliminated you from my book.… Expand
