    Cool. Really enjoyed Season 1, except for (IMO) the misplacement/overuse of soundtrack-y type music.

    Surprised it got another season. Literaly I dont know a single person who even knows what the show is let alone watches it. I got through half the season just havent gotten around to finishing it. Do like how it avoided stereotypes by making her the kid on streets, and Tyrone is at the fancy school with Middle class upbringing.

    Sitting through origin stories when you're already some way kinda versed in the source material can be kind of a slog. I didn't finish the first season either but I can't say I disliked it, just didn't rise up to the level of making much time for it. They could use a recognizable foil from the books, whomever that would be but it looks like it's building on itself OK from just that trailer. It's a wild thing to say but that don't make it not true- This show is the closest thing to the Marvel Netflix stuff we're going to get for the foreseeable future.
    Beefing up the old home security, huh?
    You bet yer ass.

    Runaways has been great. Season 2 I'd put against the best Netflix shows. FYI.

    Pretty good start.

    Though I’m wondering how exactly spoilers:
    Bridgette/Mayhem got split.

    I wonder how they are separate beings. I thought Mayham would be another personality

    I thought it was cool that Tyrone is keeping up with his studies even on the run.

    I think it might be what TV Tropes describes as "Literal Split Personality." Mayhem is the physical manifestation of Brigid's anger and pain and other negative emotions over the things that happened in the first season, operating in a separate body while knowing and remembering everything Brigid does, but without Brigid's inhibitions, moral or otherwise. That's the best explanation I can think of right now.

    So Roxxon chemicals can develop evil doppelgangers. I find it ridiculous that a chemical compound can do this. The gas Bridget got hit with in the last season finale caused a literal split personality.

    I liked the shout out to Daredevil.

    Considering Roxxon's experiments were (partially) responsible for Tandy's and Ty's powers, it's not quite that farfetched.

    The ending of the latest episode was depressing but also predictable.

    spoilers:
    When the counselor was telling Tandy her story and what she was willing to do for her ex I knew she was the viper of the story. Since one of the members of the support was already a victim of the human trafficking it made sense she would be the inside man

    Yeah, shame on me for not seeing it coming sooner. Not even being sarcastic.

    Anyone got any idea if the big bad is a comic character?

    As mediocre as I found Season 1 to be, Season 2 has really swayed me so far.

    Seems like it supposed to be D'Spayre.

    Great episode again today.
    Mayhem is helping, but also playing her own game to escape, it seems.

    Yeah, that was a twist I wasn't expecting, having D'Spayre as a human becoming a literal god (or demon) of despair . . .
