Now that they have an indefinite amount of time to tell the story, they're going to drag it out. This could be ok, if the filler is satisfying. I'm just not enjoying this season even half as much as last season, and that's disappointing.
I'm not going anywhere though. The first season was more than good enough for me to buy in for the long haul and see where this goes. I'm not confident they'll ever reach the heights of season 1 again though.

I really didn't find that Season 1 moved especially fast. It was a much simpler plot too. Basically robots at park. Robots go bad at some point. We learnt a little about the backstories of William, Bernard, and Ford, but that was pretty much it.
The bigger issue with the show is that it's hard to keep the excitement going once you'e already laid down the bigger shockers associated with William, Bernard, and the map. There's only so many ways you can rehash the concept of humanity and technology being blurred.
