Glad I'm not the only one who thinks Season 2 was crap. I managed to go through 3 or 4 episodes, fell asleep in the process and then never watched it again. First season was good, despite all its flaws.
As for Max, he is surely a polarising character; there are plenty of people who can't stand him (hi, @DeadLinesman) and that's alright... Netflix made him into a villain for no reason as it fitted their narrative though, and that's a bit too reality-show-fake-drama for my liking.
