Community reviews for Occupied, shown here with its season details.
The first two seasons were excellent, where a very complicated scenario was presented from the perspectives of people involved. Every party was portrayed as humans with their respective motivations. Season Three was an utter mess. The powers that be have decided to turn it into a regular, multi-season TV show; therefore this was a _transition_ season. Consequently, there were too many mini plots of no significance to the existing fundamental premise of the show.
