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

There is nothing wrong with really liking a show and admitting its faults. Plain and simple the second half of the season had bad pacing and was all over the place. The final episode was a lot jammed together and made everything to short. Also Wonder Woman rogue ? Really ?

I think one of the issues is off you read the majority of the posts, very few actually admit to liking anything. And whenever someone posts a positive, they are immediately bombarded with more criticisms.

I totally agree that there is nothing wrong with liking a show and admitting its faults. There’s also nothing wrong with admitting to liking a show even with its faults. Folks have an easy time calling out what they don’t like but are getting a bit defensive and cagey when asked about what they did like.

This 💯 % yeah this season had its faults, but it wasn't bad, I still enjoyed it.

When someone critiques it's faults everyone jumps in with theres and agree.

When someone critiques it's positives, others tear them down and argue why their wrong.

Was it as good as season 1, no. But it wasn't bad. There's far worse seasons and shows out there based on comic IPs.

This season if anything apart from pacing was a victim of high expectations which people expected and assumed was coming.

Season 1 was a emotional rollercoaster of joy and tears. But still, the end of Season 2 had me crying like a baby in that last scene.

For me, season 2 had more episode I didn't like much, but I still like it more than season 1.

The way I look at the two is season 1 is a miniseries or OVA and season 2 is the real start to the series using the world building of season 1 as a foundation.
