I felt like this season was all over the place, Niska wanting to be treated like a human, Leo looking for the few awaken synths, Mattie fixing the blond cute just for him to be insignificant to the long story, Tobis girlfriend and lets not even start and the little girls synth behaviour supposed "problem" that came and went just like that. They were trying to do a lot of things in just 8 episodes i couldnt feel a connection between each storyline. And the fact that they went global just at the snap of a finger didn't help and that what happens to a lot of shows, you can't go global just like that, it's a process...
In the end they made it come to an end, yes it all came together but I don't think this ending can justify the fail that was this season.
I loved the first season, i watched it twice, and was really excited for this second season, but it ended up being a sad and bland disappointment :(
I liked it, just liked it. I don't feel the need to complain about anything but this: i wish this was a slow paced story, they literally crammed 3 seasons in 8 episodes. In my dream world i would have loved this story if it was divided as following:
Season 1 - until Lyra finds out who her mother is
Season 2 - Ioren named king of bears
Season 3 - Lyra travels to another world.
Best season of a show i have seen so far!
