Remember the scene from season 1…

Where Mark goes on a date, then see’s Petey’s daughter play in her band in that alleyway show?

That scene really stands out to me in the midst of Season 2. Simply because that’s the last time this show felt like it took place in a real world with real people.

Lumon and the events of the show felt way more real, when the show was rooted in reality.

Now, to me it feels like this show takes place in an empty world, filled only with the main characters of the show.

Hell, even the train ride at the end of the last episode, felt like it was riding off into a sunset on Mars.

Really weird change up in vibes on this show, and I’m not sure if it’s for the better.

I personally liked when it felt like Lumon and these people excited in a version of reality that felt real.
