I enjoyed season 1, but season 2 is weaker IMO.
I haven't played the games so I'm not comparing it to the source material, but I just can’t take Ellie and Dina's characters seriously. Their scenes feel like some kind of high school sitcom.
People are raving about Isabela Merced's performances. IDK maybe I'm too old for this shit, but she feels like a character from a teen Netflix show or something. I couldn't give a damn if she is a "baddie". Bad dialogue, corny, and not very believable. It's supposed to be 20+ years into the fucking apocalypse and in every scene she is wearing make-up and has perfect hair.
I've been re-watching Kieslowski's Dekalog - now that is some incredible television.
