The first season was great, the second season not so much, although there are some good aspects. Ironically, the biggest problem with season 2, in my opinion, is that they started injecting a ton of what I call “damage control.” Basically that means it’s full of moralizing and insulting attempts at convincing miserable people that there’s hope when there is none and help where there also is none.
One last statement on Roseanne. I find it annoying that this is also just another chance for lazy rich people to pretend they care about world issues. As someone pointed out, no one cares about the Puerto Rico hurricane, no one cares about any real issues, but they can all turn on Roseanne, who they loved two days ago even though she’s been saying this shit on Twitter for years, and pretend to be virtuous. It’s obvious to me and it really should be obvious to everyone else that Roseanne is completely insane to the point of probably not even being capable of coherent thought. It’s already been years since she was capable of coherent conversation and she suffered severe brain damage as a teenager, which I found out today from the only real nuanced coverage of this, which came from the Young Turks.
