Honestly, the first season was a solid 6/10 and I had no urge to continue it after that. Kinda weird though because it seems like they put a lot of money into it, even had a cartoon iirc.

Ugh I'm tired.

I heard the second season was garbage and didn't bother watching it.

Loved most of the 1st season but the quality at the end suffered with how they forced the sister in there.

I did not see it but it seems very dumb to me that they took what was a very adult show in season 1 and made it PG-13 for season 2

Season 2 was a step down in just about every way. Not surprising.

COVID is gonna be brutal on a lot of borderline renewal shows. Production might be coming back on now but losing six months of studio time is a lot to overcome for production companies. To keep the big shows on schedule smaller shows are gonna get kicked to the curb.

S2 lost all of the cool quirky cyber punk elements and lore that made S1 cool.

S2 is a just a poorly done straight up Sci-Fi adventure.

And STOP putting Anthony Mackies Papa Doc ass in leading roles, hes average at best.

Was the 2nd season that bad?

I loved the first one, but never got round to watching the 2nd.

Anthony Mackie is a way better actor than Joel Kinnaman and it isn't even close. I didn't see season 2 but I wont stand for that kinda slander smh.

I thought season 1 was excellent, honestly one of the best sci-fi series I've seen and it didn't necessarily need another season. Still, I enjoyed season 2 well enough, even if it wasn't nearly as good as season 1 and had some cheap phoned in fan service moments (like the arena fight where Kovacs fought opponents who altered their appearance to look like people close to him).
Still, I don't think season 2 is as terrible as people ITT say. Tbh I think this is one of those hyperbole cases where people think something can either be awesome or terrible, with no middle ground whatsoever.

At least in regards to this role, Kinnaman > Mackie.

Eh they're both good and I like both, but Joel fit this role much better. I've only gotten 2 episodes through S2 and that's partly because I can't get used to Anthony Mackie.

I liked Season 2, thought it was slightly better. Kinnaman was great for S1 Kovacs, but Mackie was also good for S2 Kovacs. Same character but grown and more developed. Still the best Kovacs was played by Will Yun Lee and S2 set it up for him to lead in S3 which unfortunately isn't going to happen now.

I liked S2, but now that I think about it this is pretty spot on.
