I Netflixed Season 1 a year or two ago. It was OK, a fantasy story that borrowed from both Game of Thrones and Tolkien. Season 2 just turned up on Netflix and I watched the whole season. Things have changed a bit. Handsome boyish hero, Wil, has got a new and more becoming hair cut. We also see some broad shoulders, narrow hips and six pack abs, making him more of a hunk than he was in season 1. Good chick Amberle mostly appears in dream sequences. Makes me think I missed catching her death somewhere. In season 1 she had a magic talisman that she was trying to take somewhere. She doesn't talk about that in season 2. Bad Chick, Eretria has come over to the good side and she is helping Wil as much as possible. Her highway bandit father does not appear this season. Both Good Chick and Bad Chick still dress alike, in riding leathers which show their figures to advantage, and they still look alike. A couple of new good looking girls show up, one is Alenon's daughter, not quite sure what the other one is. Nobody ever addresses anyone by name on stage, making it difficult to follow the story. At least the cameraman knows enough to turn the lights on before filming, and the soundman does a fairly good job.
Season 2 lacks plot, I was unable to understand what the heroes were trying to do. It is entertaining to watch, the characters are all good looking and interesting, but I had no idea what was going on.
