**MY THOUGHTS ON SEASON 2:** _**-WARNING: Spoilers Below-**_ This was good, it was just shy of great though... Altogether it was funny, witty, emotional and at times even gripping but ultimately it fell short of what made season 1 so incredible. Season 1 had this magic about it; it felt fresh, the story was believable, the emotion felt raw and the jokes were **hilarious** but with this season everything just fell a little bit short. I'm not saying this season was bad, it was far from bad, it was really good. Its just that the season wasn't needed in my opinion. Season one had a beautiful story that was written amazingly from start to finish. The ending felt perfect for it and I didn't see the need in continuing the story any further, the idea of this broken man finally finding a reason just to **try** and be happier was a good enough ending for me. I understand why they created this season, to carry on with his story but I just really don't think it was necessary and I think because of how unnecessary it was this season took a brief fall for it and it showed in every aspect. The jokes weren't as funny, the emotion wasn't as raw and the story wasn't as gripping. They're more than likely going to create a season 3 and unfortunately I believe each season will slowly get worse and worse until finally the show is cancelled. This series really should have ended with season 1 and it would have been remembered as the amazing show it is. As I said though, it was good... Just nowhere near as good as season 1.
Still a very nice show to watch, but it's starting to feel repetitive. While I am alright with the interviewees being over the top, I wish the "quirky" characters in the main cast were kept within the limits of realism.
Loved the first season, but this one felt very unnecessary. Wasn't anywhere near as funny as the first season either. Still worth a watch though.
Yet another great season from Ricky seeing a simple intelligent man going through his ups and downs and understanding that the way one person see's people isn't the only outlook on life.
Like season 1, this takes a couple of episodes to really become good and I have to say after the beautiful ending of season 1 that was a bit hard to swallow. But then it gets back on track and delivers some great moments. I cannot stand the therapist, though. I don't think he's that funny and it's the only character with no real development or usefulness in the overarching story.
