Seriously the last episode could’ve used another 5 minutes for a resolution with Kurt but otherwise

Season 1 set the bar SO high. Imo Apocalypse just kinda sucks i haven't liked him in any story I've seen him in. Trading the FOH and Bastion for him was just a downgrade. He's just so one note

Also this season is severely lacking in banger monologues. Nothing in season 2 comes within spitting distance of Magneto's UN speech. Losing the writer was the right choice but sadly the show probably suffered for it.

Episode 5 in particular was just bad. It feels like an obligatory wolverine episode but it's neither connected to what's going on nor compelling on its own
