Stranger 2 (2020) Episodes 5-6: Rambles and Grumbles

As much as I am reluctant to say this, I am really struggling with season 2 right now. There are several reasons for that. The pacing is the obvious factor. The window dressing is another and then there’s the relentless information overload. It almost feels like I’m watching an entirely different drama from the first season. It’s not as if I’m new to political or corruption dramas either. I watch them fairly routinely but there’s something about this script that makes the juggling act dizzying to watch. I’ve been following all manner of politics since I was old enough to read and understand newspapers but this season seems to have sucked much of the intrigue out of the franchise. I’m just not entirely sure what I did sign up for now. The differences are all the more glaring as I rewatch the first season.
