TThe finale was released on Netflix so I decided to start in on Season 2 after all, knowing that there will be closure.
It's not as good. There isn't as many big global scenes, which detracts heavily. And now that the sensates are all in tune, and that there are other clusters, it's hard to tell who is really there and who is some sort of sensate mind trick. It's still has its moments. It still gets preachy in that Wachowski way. It still celebrates diversity and struggles to deliver its message of unity as in 'we are all one'. But most of all, in the era of 45, it all feels dated, like a fantasy from yesteryear, something no longer relevant because these battles have fallen to the backburner with all of the other fires 45 has ignited.
I'm about halfway through S2. I'll probably see it through.
