After the first season, I was hoping they would fix the glaring holes that litter this series and hold it back in almost every way. The plot continues to march on with little change and disappoints even more. Now we have shell shocked 5 foot tall women with no muscles that are apparently Spartans who talk back to their COs. Master Chief is now warring with the Humans in Onni or whatever it is called. Seeing him harm his own people just seems wrong and out of character.
The showrunners have no idea what the show is actually about. It's as if the covenant are just a minor inconvenience to the human soap opera that the showrunners are hellbent on showcasing. The covenant are not treated as the existential threat that they are. The show is written by people that seemingly have no understanding of anything remotely related to the UNSC, military operations, space, combat or logic. Nothing is believable in this show and everything just seems out of place or completely off.
On top of that, none of these actors are believable in their roles as they don't seem to fully understand them. The acting is simply too subpar to enjoy. They are not helped by the dialogue which is profound on rare occasions but is too often pedantic and meaningless. The writing is most often what I would describe as drivel present only to move the plot forward. I am unable to really enjoy any aspect of it at this point. I am hate watching this show now.
