The much-anticipated Season 3 of The Family Man, starring Manoj Bajpayee as Srikant Tiwari, has premiered on Amazon Prime Video — and while fans are raving about the performances and plot intensity, a large section of viewers is unhappy with how the season ends.
Mixed Reactions from the Audience
Despite praise for the season’s fast pace, emotional depth, and sharp writing, many netizens have taken to social media to criticize what they call an “abrupt” and “unfinished” finale. Some viewers feel like the tension built throughout the episodes suddenly gives way to an unsatisfying cliffhanger, leaving crucial plotlines unresolved.
One user commented, “Family Man Season 3 ends so abruptly it feels like the makers simply packed up and went home… At least pretend you care about closure.” Another added, “Why make us watch the entire season if the makers plan to keep the best part hanging for the next one?”

Performance Highlights and Appreciation
On the other hand, many fans have praised the series for its strong performances — especially Manoj Bajpayee’s return as Srikant Tiwari — as well as the seamless integration of new characters. The family angle in particular was celebrated, with several viewers highlighting how the emotional core of Srikant’s personal life remained compelling against the backdrop of high-risk spy missions.
One viewer summed it up by saying:
“Overall a great season, but the ending could’ve been much better.”
Cameo That Stole Hearts
Part of the positive buzz comes from the cameo by Vijay Sethupathi, which has been widely appreciated. Fans say his appearance brings a delightful twist and adds a fresh dynamic to the narrative, even if the season’s closure left them wanting more.
Viewer Expectations vs Reality
For many, expectations were sky-high — Season 3 marked Srikant’s return after a long break, and fans hoped for a satisfying arc that tied together both his professional threats and his family struggles. While the show largely delivered on performance and storytelling, the finale’s perceived lack of wrap-up has left some feeling short-changed.
A common sentiment: “It feels rushed… they really left it hanging.”
Will There Be a Season 4?
Given the cliffhanger-style ending, many viewers are already speculating about a possible Season 4. Some are hopeful that the next installment will resolve open threads and deliver the emotional and narrative payoff they were expecting.
