"Happy Valley" Season 3: A Gripping and Satisfying Swan Song
The third and final season of the British crime drama Happy Valley is an instant classic, packing an emotional and suspenseful punch. The series follows Sgt. Catherine Cawood, a tough but caring Yorkshire cop burdened with unbearable sorrows and a reservoir of rage. The season builds to a suspensefully inevitable, unforgettable encounter between Catherine and the villain responsible for her grief. Happy Valley's sharply drawn subplots involve local organized crime and the ravages of illicit drugs, but the series is really all about Catherine's cathartic and blistering last stand.
