Solid agree, not nearly as captivating as the first season so far. First season really had me connected with characters, whereas this season is kind of everywhere and leaves my head spinning. The focus on romance is a trope many shows are guilty of and draws away from the main story. Not quite sure what the central conflict of the story is yet. Of course, we still have five episodes left, but all of your points are in my eyes valid criticism that I’ve been thinking as well.
