This show had my curiosity. Now, with this thread, it has my attention.
After I finish up my Fist of the North Star run on VRV, I guess I will jump this to the top of my list.
It's great..finished it the other night. It's based off the first book in a trilogy. I'm going to have to get dem books.

Finished. Good show after a brutally slow start. Wouldn't call it A++ though. Very good ending. Wrapped almost everything up. Hate hate hate when they leave all sorts of things hanging and you know they're just going to keep punting those because they think people will stick around for those answers. Sci-fi especially susceptible to that.

Finished. This show lightens up just a tad and it would be a must watch.
Little miffed that the few times this show scales back to 'soft R naked' is with the hottest women on the show. Aside from that, this shit is chock full of badass sexy women. The ending was also satisfying.

Moving along at a decent pace. Finished episode 4.
Love what I'm seeing. But, Netflix gotta be dumping a ton of money into this with all the CGI and whatnot. I hope this pays off and catches a lot of viewers. I liked Marco Polo, but that lasted 2 seasons and production values between both seasons was $200 million.
A lot of money.

The one time she teased as good as she looks was under VERY conflicting circumstances.
I'm not holding my breath that the goddesss Ortega will be back. It'll most likely take place on a different planet.

Destor just mad that there wasn't a single musical number in the whole season.

Anthony Mackie is a bit one note. He can play cool or brooding but if he needs to turn the energy up he's pretty poor.
Destor
02-28-2020, 10:02 PM
Season is good in spite of him
He's hit or miss, it seems.
I guess you can chalk it up to the character still getting used to the advanced sleeve.

Season 2 cast is fine because Poe is still there. Poe is the only person in the entire mythos that matters at all. This is his story.

glad mackie is out. OG should be the s3 lead which is good. He doesnt have the calcrest attachment so itll allow the show to make a fresh start.

Hopefully s3 will be less action film and more detective noir

Finished season 2 this morning.
Only question I got for now is why bring in Neal McDonaugh as Konrad Harlan if you're only going to use him for 30 seconds? Unless he's still lurking and may be a focus in season 3.
More to follow when I get home.

Other stuff.
Wasn't a fan of the season in general. Not so much a casting problem, but more plot. Poe vs. The Reboot was a better plotline than Tak's stuff overall. The payoff for that sorta stunk. Will Yun Lee running around now gives me hope that he gets a season to himself. Always liked his work. Hope he ain't completely written off.
Didn't have a problem with Anthony Mackie. Though Lela Loren was mis-cast. Probably could have found a meaner bitch. Coin toss on Simone Missick. See Neal McDonough in the post above. Salli Richardson-Whitfield directing the last episode and sneaking in for a cameo was cool. She's been doing some good work lately.
I think a new showrunner and being careful with the cast will make season 3 great. Don't know if it got renewed.
Finishing up Episode 5 of S2 right now... I think I came in to the season just happy the show was back. The honeymoon is over...I much preferred Joel Kinnaman. I don't blame Anthony Mackie. They've just wrote his role without any personality.
Poe and Dig are the only characters I give a shit about and they're not even human.

100 Percent this.
This season just didn't have anything that wanted me to continue to watch. The whole genre is cool, which is what hooked me. The AI were definitely the stars this season, hands down.
