YES, the pacing is significantly slowed down compared to season one,
I RECOMEND watching it how u would watch filler,
(if you watch 'filler' because thats kinda what this season compiles,
What i mean is doing other things on the side like doing something that doesnt take up your complete attention,
WHY I DO/DID THIS; the storyline is stretched out, and the character buildup they try to do to mask it up doesn't work enough to grab your attention like it should,
EITHER WAY, i dont think its appauling, just super mid, i would've rated it lower if I forced myself to pay FULL ATTENTION to it instead of multi-tasking,
thats why i had it at a 7 or 9 untill now,
