1. Already better than season 1, with just two episodes in.
2. Disturbing, suspenseful, violent, not difficult to follow ( which is one reason it’s better).
3. No Richard Armitage fan should complain that there’s not enough of Richard Armitage.
4. Um yeah, I can still complain about the American accent a little, but I won’t.
5. At least 1 really fine new character.

Huh. I guess we had really different impressions. 🙂 I didn’t find it disturbing or suspenseful at all.
Gut yontiff!

Gut yontiff to you, too. No spoilers in this post, but I think it’s OK to say I find the whole topic, including the racism, disturbing to have to watch ( even though we’re living a lot of it), and yes, I did find suspense. Also at least one plot hole and one stupid move by Daniel Miller as undercover spy.

Fair enough — as a regular reader of the German news, I may be slightly inured to the disturbing nature of the topic. Or rather — the topic is disturbing but I might be less disturbed by it.

Just saw your points on Eps 1 and 2. Yeah, he should be able properly ask to use a telephone in Spanish after being stationed in Panama, where we were given the impression that Daniel Miller spoke Spanish.

Epix are offering first two episodes free, its a ploy to get you hooked so you subscribe, only available in America, I think.

Yes, but does Trevor speak Spanish?

At the time, it was Daniel, not Trevor.

Glad to hear there’s more screen time for RA! Won’t get to see it here in Canada until Oct 23, once Superchannel has finished airing Season 1.

…and here in the UK we haven’t had Season 1, never mind Season 2. I have no means of watching it any other way & I have now given up any hope of seeing it. A web site here (Geek Town) that lists starting dates for both UK & US shows says ‘Given the popularity of spy thrillers in the UK, and having a major UK star in the lead, it’s extremely surprising this has yet to land anywhere over here’.

According to Richard Armitage, it’s soon coming to UK TV.
