For me it was unfocused and retreading. Here we go again with the main plot with Will again, and worried Will's Mom again, and the upside down again, and instead of lights on the wall and oooh ahhh we put drawings on the wall and oooh ahhh and instead of Mathew Modine now we have Paul Reiser and it just didn't feel fresh. I'm not saying it was awful, just suffering of sequelitis and not anywhere near as good as the first season for me. And I can do without the X-Kids too.
