Anyone watch it yet? I wasn't a huge fan of the first season and wondering if it's worth it.

It’s not as good as the first, but it’s not bad either. It starts strong and kinda dwindles in the second half as characters start doing dumb things to keep the plot moving. It’s only 7 episodes so you can probably get through it in a couple of days.

That's interesting, with it only being 7 episodes and hearing you're thoughts that it losses it's way towards the end, I sometimes wonder if these things should just be a movie.

Like a lot of the marvel TV shows. They largely felt like drawn out movies rather than a TV show, and in my opinion suffered for it.

I liked the first season, the second not quite as good but still worth watching.
