It has fully crossed over now, and it’s all the better for it.” PLUS: Season 2 may be too ambitious for its own good, it bites off way more than it could chew in Season 2, it has a “Wire”-sized envy for epic sprawl, and it has much stronger command of its subject matter this season.

I thought the second season got off to a slow start. There wasn't a lot of action or menace or suspense in that first episode but I'll keep watching.
