Molly being confronted by other billionaires is like something out of The Simpsons, I think they were called the Stonecutters, a takeoff on the freemasons.

I thought they were going to do some kind of parody homage to Eyes Wide Shut, but they really did nothing with the scene.  The whole episode felt like a collection of mildly amusing moments that led nowhere.

Kind of a boring season overall, I have to agree.

I will be SHOCKED if this gets picked up for a 3rd season. I love Maya but sadly, I just think it has run its course.

Jumped the shark a bit in the finale. 

Was Norman supposed to Warren Buffett?

Way late to this party but I couldn't have been the only one laughing during the reaction to the plane landing.

Late to the party here because I'm just catching up on season 2, but this is exactly how I felt about the entire season. Lots of amusing lines or scenes, but I felt that overall there wasn't any substance to any of the plots. 

I don't like Molly and Arthur for several reasons, but foremost because she's his boss and that power imbalance is just not cool. 

Echoing others about not liking Sofia, but I know that I don't like the character because I don't think MJ Rodriguez is a very good actor. I've only seen her in this and Pose, and while her acting has definitely improved since those first couple seasons of Pose, she still doesn't have the chops to give Sofia much nuance. But on another note, I'm pretty sure Sofia is supposed to be a cisgender woman, so I'm happy for MJ that she has this opportunity.
