Season 2 - depth is gone
Despite being over the top, season 1 has redeeming qualities: unique location, strong main character Vergara & deep philosophical questions, to name a few. Season 2 is too much, too grotesque & outward silly jumping from place to place, character to character. Nothing has gravity or a chance to sink in.
The psych ward plot line is something worthy of a C movie, not the idea itself but the execution. The way the patients are examined looks incredibly cartoonish. Not only that but also the police officer easily infiltrating the facility is ridiculous. The influencer & her fanbase plot line is similarly silly and tiring. Again, this plot line could work but is executed so comically that as a viewer, you just cringe. It makes you think: the creators had so much time and they came up with this?
Although season 1 is over the top too, it makes you ponder on the nature of good and evil without ever telling you what to think. Season 2 presents us no deeper meaning in this story, only shock value. In season 1 grotesqueness complements the plot, in season 2 it is overbearing. Season 2 makes you think the creators wanted to go ham with everything they could and overdid it.
