    Sure, I said REwatched though. And I never had an issue with the pacing in the first watch week to week either. Do you feel like the pacing was any different from season 1? I’m not so sure it is any slower. Both seasons really slow down and let you soak in the artistry. Season 1 left you with questions and not many answers. And this season was spent answering all sorts of questions from season 1… Honestly I thought they crammed a ton into this season.

      Season 1 left you with questions and not many answers. And this season was spent answering all sorts of questions from season 1

      I certainly didn’t get that feeling. For every Season 1 question they answered, they raised 3 more in Season two. I found it very unsatisfying for most episodes this season to get to the end of an episode with little to know forward movement in the reveal.

      Both seasons really slow down and let you soak in the artistry.

      I have no problem with a slow paced show, but its got to move forward. I started getting annoyed with the lack of forward progress and the artistry lost its value and simply was an annoyance. For the second half of the season I found myself on the 10-second-skip-foward button for a good chunk of the episodes.

        Well everyone’s certainly entitled to their opinions, and you’re clearly not alone. I see where you’re coming from better now, even if it just doesn’t make me feel the same way.

        Re: goal post shifting - my point wasn’t that my experience rewatching was what informed my decision, I wasn’t trying to imply that at all. It was simply that it was all fresh in my mind is all I meant. Sorry I wasn’t more clear.
