This season feels like such conventional mystery box TV (in a bad way), as opposed to the first season which started off as this unique surrealist office comedy that gradually morphed into a thriller. I'm sorry to be so cynical, but this second season feels like a classic case of a show that blew up way more than expected and is now being deliberately stalled to milk its viewers and their attention. An expansion of cinematography and setting is nice, but not at the expense of a what was previously a cohesive narrative.
