Things Get Even More WTF
This series gives viewers more questions as they are given answers. Things are simple in Season 1, complicated in Season 2, and what the hell is going on in Season 3. Alliances shift and new organizations are revealed. Hell, there is now at least one other timeline and there are arguments if the character is really from a different timeline or just farther along in the future. So, yeah, prepare to get your mind fucked for this season because...wow.

Kellog
Kellog just proves how manipulative he is this season. We have never known, in the previous seasons, what Kellog's end goal is. All we knew was that he is great at getting people to do what he wants. It seemed that he really had no end goal. But by the end of Season 3 you get to see where Kellog stands. Or maybe the next season will provide us with more questions.

The Freelancers
The Freelancers are a group that basically monitors time to make sure people don't mess it up. They don't like time travelers and when you first meet them you're not too sure about whether to trust them or not. Their organization is complicated, especially as the season progresses. They task Kiera with killing one of the two Alecs. One Alec is the one Kiera knew and the other Alec is from the new timeline that the original Alec created when he time traveled. I would really love to say more but I also don't want to spoil too much.

Final Thoughts
I am so glad to the person who introduced this series to me. This is one of those series that makes you think. The thing about the two Alecs was really hard to deal with. What future was the right one? And also how the new Alec was different was heartbreaking at times. Kiera's beliefs continue to be questioned and we end up learning more about her past. This season ends on a cliffhanger and I really can't wait until the next season (though I don't know if it's confirmed).
