I think that the problem is the un-evenness of the characters.
For the most part the kids are flat and predictable, Sam being the worst. But in the middle of it they plopped Tory who is this really complex character with lots of layers.
Johnny's character was fun at first, but as he became more mature, I don't know, he lost something, though he was good for some great one liners.
I honestly felt that Daniel was the weak link on the show, and for the most part, he's really not that likeable as a hero, and he has no real hero's journey.
But they nailed the villains. They made Kreese somewhat sympathetic, he was an ####### because he was forced to be an #######. Silver was just a bad guy overall. He went to therapy, he knew what he did was wrong, but in the end, that little flicker of humanity that he had when he admitted that he traumatized a teenager was extinguished.
I would guess that Silver is going to use his power and influence to get out of prison, and the war is now a vengeful Kreese against Silver, in a battle for Johnny's soul.
On a side note, the best fight in that whole series so far was Robbie brutalizing Kenny.
