I just want to follow the story from start to finish as it really happened. Maybe not every detail but just the main plot lines. Every answer on this board has to contain a caveat that that was so and so's POV so maybe it didn't happen. Interesting gimmick for awhile but it got tiresome for me.

I feel exactly the opposite way -- the fact that we're seeing every storyline filtered through two peoples' POVs or memories is what makes this show so compelling. You have to view both versions and try to come up with some version of the truth that probably lies somewhere in the middle.
This show is a real, honest portrayal of the fact that we all perceive things quite differently, and what is "reality" for us may not be remembered the same way by others.
Unfortunately based on the premise of the show, you're never going to get that.
The first two seasons did have scenes that were reality. They were the scenes in the "future" and you could tell they were "real" because they desaturated the color compared to the "past". Also, clothing changed (in season one Alison is the future was much better dressed with more expensive shoes and bag, Helen in season 2 had bangs, etc).But now it's caught up, and there was just a time jump.
But this season it was tiresome, and very unsatisfying.
Remember us, for we too have lived, loved and laughed
