Same here. Bit too much taking in parts but otherwise excellent. Great acting.

Loved S1.

S2 is like wading through treacle.

Not surprised, we gave up with S2 which is a damn shame as S1 was tremendous.

S2 just wobbled about all over the place.

likewise, thought S1 was awesome, S2 i think we got to the 3rd episode and then gave up.

I did struggle to the end of S2, and wondered if it may pick up in S3 given the S2 ending..

His daughter saying they needed the "Bad Version" of him back..

ah well..

I didn't read the thread before starting S2, I wish I did...

Ah, might give it shot

It picks up towards the end and we will watch season 3, but it just wasn't as grabbing as the first season.

Shame as season 1 started off really good but season 2 just dragged on way too much.

Malevolence · Sunday at 15:30

Guess I won't bother with finishing season 2 then.

OspreyO · Sunday at 16:04

Season 2 has closure of sorts. But if you aren't enjoying it why bother. I enjoyed it tbh.

Shame, enjoyed this.

Too many series getting cancelled before properly ending, as per usual.

Not surprised after seeing S2...

I really liked season 1 but season 2 had serious pacing issues. It was tough to get to the end.
So can't say it'll be missed.
