Ugh..Wayward Pines finale. I know it was designed for one season, but there's no way I can think of possibly watching a S2 if they do one now.

Some of these one and done series are really pulling chicken-shit endings out of their asses (see Dig).

I'm four or five episodes into The Whispers. It's... formulaic cliff-hanger schlock that's predictable but watchable. Like Pines, but not as... its dumber.

Not Safe for Work (ongoing). The govt. sends its useless shits to to the Immigration Pathway in... somewhere that's not London. One of them is a woman who is not a useless shit, although by the second episode, you can understand why she may not have been at full capacity in the past year or two. And/or they sent her in to sort the other actual shits out.

It's funny, but depressing, but at times realistic, but there really isn't much of a strong narrative, just "fuckin' hell".

Thank You! I have been waiting for someone to report on this. I ended up liking the first season, which made me very concerned about whether a second season could even be good.

Did they keep the awesome intro, or change it, like most shows that make it to season two?

Same-ish intro: a few of the new characters inserted in the background. The second season is better than the first, especially if you binge watch it.  The characters continue to grow and develop, which is unusual for the genre.

I might be the only person I know that liked it.  Maybe I'm just extra-empathetic, but I could really put myself into their situation and feel the stress of what it would be like to be on that humanity life boat.  The abies coming in was intense.
