Season 1 was fantastic and I had great expectations for season 2. Season 2 starts with the same kind of mysteries as the first but then turns into a really convoluted political plot. The characters motivations go all over the place, the plot swings backwards and forwards and the end is unsatisfying. The acting is still good but the whole thing just feels like a mixed bag that doesn't really come together as a whole. Many parts feel like the script writers just needed X to happen so made the characters do Y and it all just feels a bit unnatural rather than organic.
Then you have just plain dumb things like a terrorist disguised as a sick person with a mask to cover her face, who continually keeps taking it off in public. Plus a cop that suddenly decides the Fae are ok with barely a character arc.
Taking both together the series comes off as average because the final season is such a let down. If you're tempted, just watch season 1 and ignore season 2, you're not missing much.
