What I liked about S1 was that it was a bit tighter than The Walking Dead. Pedro Pascal, of course, is always great to watch. I liked the little vignettes as the road trip across America played out.

S2 lost all of that momentum. Interpersonal moments became overly contrived. The show settles into a predictable pacing of running, action, stop and talk, running… Actors get even less to work with and good character moments are sparse and mostly used for cliffhanger bait.

I just want grumpy Pascal escorting a vulnerable but sassy child/alien across a map and making/killing friends along the way. I do not want a late 00s zombie c-movie with theater actors doing metaphors about Israel/Palestine. Especially when the punchline is “Wow, Israelis sure are brutal but have you seen what they’re fighting?”

What did YOU think about S2 and its ending?
