Elliot F Please bless us with Season 4!!! Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/27/25 Full Review Mason M I am a huge with a capital h fan of the first run of Party Down, so I had high expectations for this third season and I'll tell you, it did not disappoint at all. Even though it'd be impossible to recapture the original magic of Party Down, this season was arguably just as great as the first two. It's absolutely hilarious (as usual), with John Enbom's writing being sharp, clever, and immensely smart. And though usually new characters in reboots, especially since this show had such a perfect set of characters, the new characters on this season were actually very enjoyable. Sackson was a likeable and enjoyable character that added a new edge to the show, and Jennifer Garner did a good job as Henry's new love interest. What really impressed me about this season though was this new serious and emotional place that Enbom was able to bring us to in the last episode. The season finale served as a brilliant emotional climax to the show, and included the culmination of a lot of underlying themes throughout the show in a purely genius way. All the episodes in this season were amazing, especially episodes 2 and 5, but the finale may be one of the best episodes of Party Down, and one of the best episodes of television ever produced. The ending was simply perfect for the show, and I didn't know Enbom had it in him to write such a great thing in that more emotional and atmospheric way. Enough about that episode, the show is still immensely good after all this time. The original cast all gives just as top notch performances as they did in the original run. And though I was sad about Lizzy Caplan's absence, Party Down after 13 years is still just as sharp, ingenious, and still the funniest thing on television. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 07/05/25 Full Review Yolo K Not as good as the first 2 seasons, but worth a watch. Could have been better without the boring pointless love interest played by an uninspired Jennifer Garner who just doesn't fit in here chemistry wise. Still, the old cast was top notch and the new kitchen staff did fit in quite well. Would definitely watch another season if they made it. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 04/22/25 Full Review J H An absolutely pointless revival. Example: just as I was getting used to Jennifer Garner's character, she and Adam Scott's character break up, Lizzy Kaplan's character comes back, the series ends... wait, what? Stick with the first two seasons. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 03/06/25 Full Review Ben H Sooo glad they made a Season 3, but now they have just left me wanting more...
