Was so good in season 1, it was very well done, it felt REAL, and it was super compelling. I'm 2/3 thru season 2 and unfortunately the series has gone completely off the rails. Instead of interesting discussions on how we could live on Mars (along with scientific and social hurdles that would have to be overcome), we get crazy plot devices as an excuse to preach on climate change and the evils of industry. I'm invested in some of the characters so I'm staying in, but I sure miss the quality and fresh feel of the season 1.
