I mostly enjoyed S3. Close to mid S1 quality.
I watched all of S2, and while it was not good, I had enough investment in the characters to see it through.
As for S3 and the thriller aspect.
I agree that the TV-MA aspects were very gratuitous. Definitely a bit too much.
It was odd not to see the son in the last episode. I understand that the actor has another gig, but he could have come in for one scene. The scene wasn’t realistic without him (ok, the show is a fantasy, but still...)
Overall, I enjoyed it

Once you get to Ep8 or so, it is a nice reversal of S1. In S1, the investigation spun off of the White House into its own story. In S3, it began as its own story (and seemed tacked on), but then it fitted in very nicely with the main story.
