The third and final season of "Sweet Tooth" concludes the story set in a post-apocalyptic world after a deadly virus called the Sick decimated humanity.
It 3 follows Gus, Big Man, Becky, and Wendy on a road trip to Alaska, facing hardships, new villains like Helen Zhang and her daughter Rosie, and Dr. Aditya Singh as they seek answers about hybrids' origins and abilities.
Hatred towards hybrids complicates Gus's journey while setting up a battle between humans and hybrids, with Gus at the center.
The final season wraps up the story of Gus and Tommy Jepperd's search for Gus's mother and the Sick's origins, with a more focused tone as characters move towards a common goal in Alaska, though some plot elements may feel convoluted or unnecessary.
While Season 3 has some drawbacks, including an overabundance of new characters and rushed moments, it still offers interesting elements, with Mrs. Zhang becoming the primary villain, adding a new level of danger.
It remains a well-crafted series. The show excels when the characters' personalities bounce off each other. The acting continues to be a highlight, with strong performances from the cast, particularly Christian Convery's heartwarming portrayal of Gus, Nonso Anozie, and Singh's standout storyline.
The finale poses the question of whether humans deserve to live, with some character endings veering into the supernatural.
Catching up with previous seasons may be necessary.
Despite its brutal and unforgiving world, making it unsuitable for children, Sweet Tooth has earned a place in Netflix's pantheon of great shows.
