Goodbye, Mrs. Selvig

This episode had a great cinematography and recording, perhaps it is the episode with the best artistic direction of the series, that also creates expectations about the second season, which in my case, had been somewhat "broken" with the first episode and made me imagine that the series would take a totally different path from the first season, but they caught my attention with this second episode that complements the first, makes it better and resumes the entire path of its predecessor, making it more interesting and putting, once again, the taste of curiosity in our mouths hungry to know what will happen next.

Honestly really enjoyed it. Im still yet to see an episode worth $20M, however thats not necessarily a bad thing. This episode is more of a different perspective on the information we were given in the prior episode. Which leads to the one critique i have for this... why wouldnt they release those 2 at the same time, then let us wait a week and come back with the new story as it unfolds. It kind of feels like a write off so they can extend people's attention and using that as kind of a way of abusing the power they have over us. Thats definitely not something i think is the shows fault my any means, more of a flaw on the side of Apple. However, the episode is still great. Its still what we do want to see, i would have just liked these first 2 to be released in tandem with one another... then give us the rollout for the next week with the new story. Nonetheless, love this show.

The shots taken this episode is just mindblowing. Gave me some better call saul vibes. The story, where do I begin. It's simply extraordinary. I'm just here to give the cinematography of this episode a 1000/10 because wow, it's literally a Monalisa for TV shows. The way the shots taken, the angles, the face reactions, Mr Milchick on his motorcycle, his helmet, oh my god his helmet is a piece of art ( I'm not even a motorcycle dude but hey ). This show is a brilliant TV art that shows you don't need to rush every year for a season. Take your time with it and deliver for your viewers. Ben Stiller KUDOS.

I feel like the series is delving into the gnostical existential journeys of its characters. The stunning visual presentation of Mr. Milchick's motorcycle scenes doesn't need further praise - I believe his character is on the path to gaining more depth as the story progresses.

While I loved the visuals in the first episode of Season 2, I found S2E1 slightly below my expectations. However, it now seems clear that it was all about laying the groundwork for the episodes to come. Following the setup in S2E1, this episode is a true masterpiece. This is the episode that has taken a wild momentum for the new season.

I wonder if there is actually a point to reviewing episode after episode, when there is not anything new to say. The show goes on the same way - mystery, atmosphere, more mystery, more atmosphere. On and on it adds layers of mystery on top of layers of mystery. But the problem is, you have to throw some resolution. But this show simply doesn't do that. Instead, the mystery just widens, but there are no answers, and it is becoming tiresome. What is Lumon's agenda? What do the severed workers do? Why is Mark so important to Lumon? After one whole season and two episodes of the second season, we should have at least some answers, but there are none. Still not a bad show, but more and more it is form over substance.
