OK, to tell you the truth I was hooked for two seasons and found the show uplifting and refreshing. Beautiful art, interesting artists and generally very little drama, which in my humble opinion sucks... SO I anticipated third season but it turned out to be a whammy. And I'm talking not only content but, surprisingly the editing too. In the era of digital, enhanced images and perfectionism in media one would expects no less than that in a popular show, well it's not the case with LA ink. First of all the cutting and gluing the shots together is a disaster. You can really hear where the frames were glued, because it sounds faster (i'm no editor so pardon my layman vocabulary). Then there are some bits (previews) in the beginning of the show, which are out of context just stuck together for drama effect. How annoying. Let me just say that in season 3 there is a gross negligence on the part of producers. Also hiring the incompetent Blondi and keeping her for so long...what was that about? Adrian she is a horrible, grumpy female and I'm not surprised no one could manage to stick around for too long. It also might be due to the fact that the crew is so tight but in such case the shouldn't even try to extend the family. The art in season 3 lost the original quality too. I only gave it 5/10 because of the previous seasons. Sorry to see this show going down like that.
