I started rewatching this as background noise while I'm working from home. I don't think I ever finished the second season. 

The first season really wasn't too bad. It had flaws, but nothing too major. 

The second season though...by the 2nd episode, it was like "oh right, this is why I stopped watching, because people are suddenly so awful". Lorna and Andy suck (Andy always did, but Lorna was cool till she left). I think the show introducing Reeva was a really terrible decision, and the Cuckoos screen time increasing didn't quite work either. The Inner Circle makes little sense, takes up too much screentime, and destroyed a lot of characters. Caitlin became insufferable because all she does is whine about Andy. 

I'm really going to try to finish it this time, but it is going to be a struggle.
