The writing differences between season 1 and 2
My 7-year old and I were delighted to watch season 1 together. We giggled every time Elizabeth misunderstood something Jack said, we rejoiced every time a child overcame a hurdle, and our hearts were warmed watching Jack and Elizabeth learn to trust each other. And Elizabeth cooking? Funny!
Season 2 has none of the warmth and humor we loved in season 1.
In addition, the conflicts are cringe-worthy instead of something we hope to see resolved in an honorable way.
We saw Elizabeth grow and mature in season 1, but in season 2 she is as immature and fickle as her sisters. She has regressed to the point we no longer like her.
And as slow as the romance was between Jack and Elizabeth was as fast as it was between Julie and Tom and also Clara and Luke.
We are very sad to see the show go downhill.
