Yep. Season one was campy fun. Corny dialogue, rubber monsters, bad fighting scenes, sexy people with their boobs, abs, jawlines, and butts on display. The show knew it was exploitative garbage and it executed it well.
After that it just turned into yet another milquetoast fantasy series with boring tropes like the royal who is cast out and must win back their throne, dull “race” story lines about humans and non-humans. Make every character and storyline miserable and moody, take out all the campy fun. Just the most dull middle of the road writing.
I didn’t make it past the third episode I’m season 3. I’m done with the show. I guess the Barbie movie will be the next opportunity for campy fun.
