Season 3 Never Have I Ever has had a fair to middling run so far. But I found the Des and Devi break up quite an interesting topic. Devi is the main character of the show and we can't help but root for her and understand everything from her point of view as told by John McEnroe. But in some respect Des's mother also had a point. Her son is impressionable, young and has his whole future ahead of him. It was harsh and abrupt for her to want him to end things with Devi because she seemed 'broken'. It was not as if she didn't think Devi was good enough for Des but more that there was too much emotional baggage that came with Devi. Often we've seen Devi put a lot of the men around her down in hilarious fashion, Ben being one of them and even second guessing Paxton. It seemed some form of cruel poetic justice that she got dropped in this episode. Even though we feel for Devi's setbacks and understand them I found the two sides interesting and it added depth to an average season which was good.
Please drop the sappy teenage romance. Not everyone has to be in a relationship. The thought provoking stuff works better instead.
