@theunsatisfiedconsumer Very well put. It's not a complete 180 into unenjoyable trash, but it's such a noticeable descent from the quality and vision of the first season. It seems like one of those cases of the first season being a surprisingly bigger hit than it anticipated, and then feeling pressured to tick all the boxes to maintain/increase its appeal; ultimately becoming so self conscious with its identity that it starts to lose what made it relatively good in the first place. And in the end it sacrificed that quality of writing and animation, just to shit out a season that amounted to nothing.

A sad parody of its former self, putting all their chips into shock value, hype, and meta culture. Sad to see it's already devolving without any self awareness faster than The Boys did.
Core aspects of this show (writing, animation, direction, pacing, scope) really plummeted this season. The only consistency was the voice acting and visual design.
Not only does it feel like it morphed into hollow content between seasons, whats worse is that it feels like a complete waste of time now.
