Really loved S1 and rewatched multiple times. S2 feels off, maybe got caught up in success and lost the realness. S1 was based off MB’s earlier essays & had a real life grittiness that connected the viewer to the intimacy of certain moments. It was grounded in a reality we could connect with and overall the characters’ experiences were more relatable. S2 just was all over the place, but I guess you can only fit so much in an 8 episode “season”. maybe if there’s a S3 they can somehow pick up the thread. Idk
