Thank god I avoided this thread while the show was on. Absolutely shocked to read so much complaining. I thought I’d be scrolling thru page after page of unanimous praise. I’ve found it enthralling, cerebral, entertaining, sad and of course a total mind ####. If we’ve gotten to a point where a show with this big a budget that also has this much density and quality storytelling is considered a letdown, then TV as a medium has jumped the shark.
I binged all but the finale yesterday and today. I think this is at least as good as season 1 if not better. Any talk of it being slow or filler is romanticizing season 1 and not remembering it was a slow burn.
I’m shocked they were able to live up to season 1’s twists. To read the some posts here comparing it to True Detective S2 or a soap opera are laughable.
