The series started very strongly.

As a Catholic my enthusiasm started to diminish when I got a full sense of where they were going with the character of the Blessed Virgin Mary.

I really regret the non-Catholic depiction of Jesus’ birth in the recent Christmas episode. Devout Catholics who have seen the episode will know the basis of my comment in this regard.

None of this should come as much of a surprise since the creative team, though reasonably receptive to Catholic perspectives during the development of the first two seasons, was never likely to deviate to any great extent from current Protestant orthodoxy in terms of denigrating Mary and those who venerate her.

RE: denigrating Mary and those who venerate her

I missed this particular episode. Exactly how did the film denigrate Mary?
