Did they change the entire production team? It’s not even the same show.

I barely cared about the protagonist in the first season. But everyone around him and the story he was traveling through were so very goddam interesting, and that carried the whole show forward.

This new season is a complete mess. The first episode, anyway. I may try another one, but jeezus that first one was a slog.
