I heard from nearly everyone who watched it saying that the show was amazing in the beginning and had a dramatic drop in quality. Does anyone else know of series besides 13 Reasons Why, Homeland, and True Blood they had such a steep drop in quality?
shareFor me, Cobra Kai.
It started SO good, with the right amount of nostalgia and fan service, interesting characters, especially Johnny, bashing of certain SJW topics and with the end of season 1, the wish for more.
Then came season 2... and it all turned into an ultra-woke infantile teenage drama where nothing makes sense anymore (the big mass fight at school demanded just too much suspension of disbelief) and whoever wanted more from what he got in season 1, was left disappointed. Series got significantly worse after that as well.
Another one is Sex Education, for basically the exact same reasons.
Despite certain modern SJW topics and tropes, it started quite based, interesting and was refreshingly new, while not being "over-sexed" despite the main topic. One fascinating aspect was that you could never really tell time and country it plays, because the creators used things from multiple eras and regions all mixed up. Some 80s British fashion mixed with modern cell phones and old European cars while being, obviously, in North America etc. etc.
Then came season 2 and it got ultra woke, rather boring due to trying to be too over the top/absurd and characters that initially showed promise, became shit. It also waves the rainbow flag way, WAY too hard and I am fed up already.
Bummer, started so brilliant...
I dunno, I thought Westworld was much better in rewatch when I watched the Chronologically version for Seasons 1 & 2, then the entire thing just flows, much better pacing instead of constantly switching from present time to past time.
