The audience especially appreciated the cast who gave their best performance yet. While the majority of the audience liked the show, it was different for others. The show is also criticized for presenting choices that are too far-fetched to be considered in reality and deliberately killing the good characters. The show for some feels less powerful as compared to the 1st season that set the standards too high and the deteriorating quality of character arcs in this season.
