What BollyAI Thinks
Season 2 resolved the Season 1 question of whether the concept could sustain itself: it could, and then some. The critic score jumped to 97% as the show sharpened its political metaphors and gave its ensemble cleaner character arcs. Aya Cash's Stormfront, a character with no clear analog in the source material, delivered one of that television year's most discussed villain turns. The weekly release format heightened anticipation episode by episode and the audience ratings held strong.
