Aug 9, 2021
Season 2 sticks to its usual formula. That’s not a terrible thing: This show’s cultural significance cannot be understated, and it offers comfort food to an entire underrepresented community. But it’s not a net positive, either, as these characters continue to spin their wheels, offering plenty in the way of histrionics with consistently scant development.
