I loved the first season so much that I’ve watched it twice.
But I thought the entire second season was poorly edited. Back and forth and back and forth between storylines.
The last episode was pretty good though until the coda — which was unnecessary and cheesy. I hope they never flash back to the current day ever again. You want the viewer to fill in some blanks with their imagination instead of having it spelled out for them.
I get that, the 2nd half of the 1st book is the plot for season 2, to a degree. There is a lot is switching between characters points in there, which does make you wanna read faster to get back to the point. But in the show it can make the thing feel a bit slow.
The 2nd book in the series is supposed to show pre-silo times, like 350 years pre season 1 - which was the jarrging switch at the end. I also wasnt the biggest fan of that bit, until the Pez dispenser came out. But I think season 3 will have more of those flashes. Interesting to see how thatll hold viewers
Thank you! I thought the same. The back and forth was really tiresome. I just wanted to stay with the characters a bit longer each time.
