I´m on vacation. It will be another 3 weeks before I have the time to watch it. Let me know if it is any better than season one. It was just one of those shows where I didn´t really root for any of the characters.
i am about 7/10 episodes through it but i would say it is on par with season 1 and not significantly different. I still have mixed feelings about it abit too slow paced for my taste but also alot of really cool scenes, and i love Famke!
why l hated season 1 - Lack of structure , l didnt even know what the show was really about , just a bunch of boring supernatural creatures in a fictional town. -Famkes accent l love her but damn it was bad , glad its gone now. -Romans bad acting ,he made plenty of weird faces , glad someone told the actor to stop those. -The show done in the style of a cw drama or teen wolf would have been better. - Slow and boring watched first 4 episodes skipped to the last 3 episodes , did not feel like l missed much at all. Season 2 - The show is at least watchable now l've seen the first two episodes was not bored as much as l was during any of the season 1 episodes. Problem -even at two seasons long the show seems like it has not found its niche at all..
I liked it, but didn't feel it really went anywhere. And the ending was so over the top and crazy. I spent the entire season wondering why they killed off Letha and brought in a similar looking girl, too. The mask killers seemed like a confusing story and so was bringing in the doctor as a creature, as well. I did feel bad for Shelley. Her story was the saddest of all. I might watch another season, and would hope the stories would even out more.
I am loving this season I think it is better than season 1 but I didn't think there was anything really wrong with season 1. I really hope they have a season 3!
I was so excited for this season.... Episodes 1-6: NOTHING! Boring as hell!! U can actually ignore all that happened. Episode 7-9: Ok/Good, but should have been there from the beginning. Episode 10: Ok, let's do some crazy shi-i-i-t so people still watch next year. I mean, ok that the first season was kinda boring, but it was so dark and cool to watch. So disappointed at this season.
The season became better and better, and wtf at that ending ^^ Glad we got a lot of answers and that most story lines are tied up (which, together with coherency, was lacking in the first season)
Fucking loved it. Had the same mysterious elements and surprises as Season 1 and better.
With Hemlock Grove we know the season arc gets finished by the penultimate episode, and the most of the mythology arc gets explained or addressed by the final episode but on top of that adding more to it.
The end was just great can't wait for what comes next.
Oh and Peter and Romans Friendship is the best, was laughing when they made good with each other after a fight they didn't know why they were fighting. Them to bros for life.
Over too quickly. I knew they'd do a piss poor job of development as the premise ran up the wall like molasses toward the middle of the season. Casting a different actress in Shelley's role was a little distracting. Seemed a lot like much ado about nothing. The end was a little preposterous and when there are too many subplots, something always gets lost. Famke's persona was diluted. But all in all, I binged on the program like comfort food. I'm rooting for a better next season.
I'm not sure how to vote - I liked season 1 even though I had no clue what was going on. Season 2 was a little better as far as a story to follow up until the last episode ... WTF was that $hit?
