Really disappointing....expected the same level BUT not even close to Season One...
You will be amazed how lame is it...

Huge disappointment

Two years to get 8 disappointing episodes. The world is there, but It's hidden behind sub part acting, hammy monotone emotionless dialog, and a story that doesn't deliver until the last episode. The only shining stars in this mess are Chris Conner and Dina Shihabi with Mr. Conner doing the heavy lifting.
Very disappointing

I really wanted to like the season two since I loved the first one. Unfortunately it's much worse. Decline for season two as bad as with Westworld. To be fair I only watched three episodes, but it has been disappointingly bad.
So disappointed. Nothing close to first season.

The FIRST season was truly groundbreaking and incredible. Created a world. Immersed you into it and gripped you. Sexy, violent and intelligent storytelling.
Great actors, stunning effects and fight choreography and stunts. Each episode was a mini movie and it was the best scifi show I had the pleasure of watching numerous times for many years.
I simply couldn't wait to see more............sadly we all had to wait quite some time.
Sk when saw first trailer for season 2 I was very excited.
Launch night I was ready to bing watch as many episodes as possible.
Right from the start I noticed a tone shift........it all felt safer, like a PG13 version. The world just felt cheaper, in fact the whole production felt cheaper. It obviously had budget cuts as the production started to give off a SyFy channel vibe. (Not good) .......many scenes set in forests and caves that looked like a Dr Who cheap set to save money were obvious. The potential for Kovach new military enhanced sleeve were totally wasted ......... the cool gun to hand was hardly used at all.
The sex was gone........nudity gone. The feel of this future world felt small. It just lost everything cool about the first season.
I understand the need to change actors, different sleeve etc.......and the story was kinda interesting in places but overall feel it wasn't gripping at all.
Was it budget cuts? Bad director choice? Badly cast? All of above?
It seems unlikely that another season will be made............and thenproducers only have themselves to blame.
What a shame. Season one will always be in my top ten. Absolutely brilliant season.
