2x01 Safe

At the very least, it was a better start to the season than the premiere of the first season was. It may have been slower or whatever but I was more invested and drawn into it, which still isn't saying much. The first season was underwhelming and I don't have high hopes for this season.

Something that's not that big of a deal that I think is a convenient but considerate touch is having the trainees be assigned new identities. It makes sense when thinking about it from an in-show point of view, but it also gives the audience a name to refer a certain character by.

I mean, there are only two characters, so far, who I think will hold some significance in this season, which seems obvious, who have been focused on in this episode that we were told their fake names. And I don't think we were told (or shown) their real names in the first season, at least not Sandy's. I don't think Jules was shown in the first season. But if she was, I think she was just there to be there.

Anyway, I'm going into this season expecting it to not be that enjoyable, just like the first one. But as long as there isn't teen drama or at least not too much of it, and not an obnoxious, dysfunctional family like there was in the first season who had way too much focus and screentime, in a show like this, no less, that's supposed to be about a girl with enhanced capabilities in a more action-packed manner, I think this season will, at the very least, make for decent enough entertainment. Something that the first season hardly managed to accomplish, unfortunately.
