Season 1 was deep? In what way?
I watched it straight through when I was working from home and had nothing else to do for a few days. I watched it again just last month thinking maybe I missed something like first time.
I don't think I did.
It was just as plodding and poorly written the second time around. Not only did I not care about any of the characters or their struggles, I actively disliked almost all of them by the end. They were an assortment of shitty television cliches acting out the most boring and uneventful alien invasion imaginable.
I don't doubt that there's probably a purpose to some of the more perplexing bits from last season, but I wasn't pulled into last season enough to care.
All that said, I'm probably going to watch it anyway.
