Yes. It has good pacing, which is the primary criticism of all comic book shows on any streaming service

Just got around to watching this how over the last few days and the thread title is dead wrong. It was good. Better than Doom Patrol, which had some pretty good episodes and some pretty bad episodes. Not perfect, not the best show I've ever seen, not even particularly unique or memorable, but good and worth watching. I'll certainly watch the second season.

Can’t believe it took me this long to realise you’re a troll account

OP was tired of us talking about it in Couch Chat iirc

I should change the title later tbh. If anyone has suggestions post 'em

I think it was one of those moments where people were coming in and complaining that there wasn’t a thread instead of actually making one

I still don’t love this show or anything but season 2 is definitely a dramatic improvement. Stuff like the needledrops are still annoying (the vast majority of the time they’re just propping up an uninteresting scene instead of enhancing an already good one, and the choices are too obvious - changing it to a cover or a foreign-language version doesn’t fix that), but the pace is better, the bickering is less irritating, a lot of the premise is more inherently comedic so it’s able to be an actual comedy more often instead of the poorly-written family drama with the occasional zinger 1 fell into so often, and there’s nothing anywhere near as annoying or frustrating as the Vanya love interest subplot which drove me absolutely loving insane last year.

That was later in the 60s. Season 2 mentions that his love interest in the war died in 1968.

Wait, there were people who liked season 1 but disliked season 2? Did they all hit their heads as children?

Yeah this is definitely shaping up to be the best season so far but we’ll see how the mid-season bloat is

My only real issue with the show so far is Sloane. Good actress but the character is really thin and basically just “super in love and emotional” in a way that kind of approaches misogyny. Hopefully there’s more to her character that improves things.
