I loved the show, but I don't know if I can go through those intense emotions again 😜

I don't know if there will be the shock value that there was the first time around, but I am certainly interested in where they decide to take the story.  There were a lot of good story threads that were dropped in the first season, although I think that was mostly because of the speed of the story-telling rather than an attempt at a cliff-hanger.
