The downside to watching an inordinate amount of TV/Movies over the years, is that one can quite often 'see it coming' and unfortunately, the misdirection was ineffectual in this series, so the twist was, least for myself, transparent.
What a talented team of writers, producer & director need to do to offset an obvious ending, is to make the journey there an enjoyable one. To have multiple points of interest/subplots, build suspense & conclude these arcs in the tapestry whilst seamlessly flowing forward.
I don't believe they achieved anywhere near to the level I am espousing. Many of the red-herrings came and went without depth nor clarity. There was little in the way of tension nor foreboding.
Perhaps I am judging too harshly but season one set a high standard from which to critique.
There was so much to admire about S1; it was up there with True Detective in many regards & not least in a superb performance by Jessica Biel.
The saving grace in S2, for me, was Carrie Coon's performances. I found her to be magnificent, thoroughly captivating. She stole the scene in every scene & it was such a pleasure to behold.
