Otherwise this corny show is just the same nonsense over and over.
My prediction:
We travel back to Merry Old England for mom’s wedding. Kendall, by now in a truly no f’s given mode, goes to the police and confesses he was driving the car in the crash that killed the cared waiter and in an ultimate F you throws his dad under the bus and Logan is arrested, the family and company re in disarray.
Fin.
I think there may have been some foreshadowing of this. During the Logan/Kendall discussion on the boat at the end of season 2, when Logan tells him he’s the one to take the fall for the cruise, he says he deserves it for killing the waiter. Logan says no, because he was nobody and uses the term “NRPI” — “no real person involved,” which was the term they used in the cruise line coverup. I think that was the moment Kendall realized that Logan had lied about not being involved and decided to take Logan down. If Kendall doesn’t have enough evidence re: Logan’s involvement in the cruise line mess, the coverup of the waiter’s death was just more of the same. Kendall would obviously have to implicate himself, but he could take Logan down with him.
Only glitch is that I think the wedding is in Italy?
The wedding is definitely in Italy, I read an article about the cast and them being there for a few weeks.
Fun fact, most of the cast travelled around Italy unbothered by fans who don’t know the show and don’t know the actors. The one exception being Alan Ruck who was recognized b/c he’s Cameron from Ferris Bueller.

New Yorker? So the obviously bought and paid for hype for this corny show continues. The writing and production this season is truly so bad and amateur. It is not called out by the media because the hype is all purchased and orchestrated. I would love to watch a serious and sharply-written drama loosely based on Murdoch. His life's story was squandered on this cringefest.

It was interesting to see the contrast of how he treated his staff (80s lunchboxes then last minute change) vs his tenderness toward his kids’ gifts to him.
Despite K’s horrible behavior before and at the party, I felt sad for him after the Roman fight. The series is a great illustration of how one can have it all, from a material perspective, but no genuinely loyal, loving relationships.

Their father puts them against each other. He is a toxic presence in his kids lives and nothing they can do will ever measure up to him, both in his eyes and their own. Kendall does do a great job of making the viewers connect with him. He’s probably the only sympathetic character- he’s the only one who ever seems to feel any remorse or want to be better.

Ugh I hope not. The first two seasons were so good. I still have faith they'll round out season 3 in a way that feels satisfying, and I hope season 4 will knock it out of the park. One can dream!

Agree with this, but to an extent.
J. Smith-Cameron - the actress who plays Gerri - was on Andy Cohen's show earlier this week. She hinted at some spoilers and it sounds like the season is going to have a twist ending, per her statements.
Her answers to Andy's leading question are simultaneously evasive but also revealing.

Tom really crushed that last episode. Also I love everything Roman does.
I can totally see the party planners doing absolutely everything they had to do and then everything falling apart like that and where they have to just appease whatever he feels like in the moment.
If I ever become rich and famous, I will make sure I have an entourage that at least can say no to me. Jeez.
Kendall nailed it when he said that Roman is not a real person. He is nothing but snark, meanness, and attitude, but the actor portrays this so well. And you do fond yourself actually liking him sometimes.
But that’s also the ultimate Roy family insult. Remember the crimes against the cruise line victims were dismissed as “NRPI — No Real Person Involved.” At the end of season 2, when Logan was explaining to Kendall that he was going to have to take the fall, he dismisses Kendall’s guilt over killing the waiter as “NRPI.” I think that’s part of what triggered Kendall’s whistleblowing. When Logan used that term, he realized that Logan had been deeply involved in the cruise line cover up.

This just about sums it up
Sums up what? Pp is the one that’s confused. Everyone gets that it’s a “soap opera and cheap Sunday night entertainment.”
