...or is the story starting to feel convoluted...?

Just thinking out loud.. 1st season was phenomenal. Couldn't stop watching. First time I binge-watched any series...

I'm a little iffy on the 2nd season.. At least the 1st 2 episodes. Story starting to feel a little pushed, like they said: "oh s*** - we have a hit on our hands... O.k. - what can we write for the 2nd season...?"

Maybe I'm wrong.

My title is in response to smartypantsz review title. I loved Season 1. First time in ages I binge watched something ( probably since 'Messiah'). But so far S 2 is dragging on; nothing has really happened, except for misery, and tears. This is like something done by Germans, LOl; who are always heavy handed to the point of being morbid. Yes, Touie is torn up. But for the sake of drama series, the point has been well made, and explored. Of course these matters aren't over and dealt with quickly in real life. But this is a Netflix series. You got to keep people interested. This series has been exceptionally well cast. Ronald and Izzy are engaging characters. I like the close-ups of Izzy where we see acne; makes her 10 times more gorgeous. The little smarmy hateful FBI agent is also well cast. At first I just could not take him serious when he's talking about 'Cafesito', and "Salud' and banging women up against the shower stall. I'm like "Bilbo, I never knew ya". But he has transcended. I'm going to keep on watching. Waiting for big Ron P to show, I guess.
