Disappointing second season
1 January 2024
I liked the first season a lot, so I waited until I could binge the second without distractions. Alas, it was a letdown in several respects.

The first is that our protagonists are under too much fire from too many sources for way too long. By now you know the specifics. They're all playing defense and circling the wagons for most of the first eight episodes. I'd have preferred the good guys kicking more butts along the way to their upswing in the last two.

The second is that Harry gets a lot of screen time, but none of the best scenes. His savvy remains, but he's relatively inept at things formerly in his wheelhouse - spotting a tail, finding bugs and trackers, anticipating and turning the tables on the bad guys, etc. This year he's more dependent on others.

Crate and Barrel could have lightened the dour mood a bit if given more to do. Maddie, Chandler and Mo get the best moments in the later episodes without Harry. The dude needs to be more central to the solutions if there's a third season.
