I just don't see how coming back to the setup of the first season would be a good idea. It was a masterpiece, I love it, but where could it actually go? I feel like it's just going to be yet another of the masses of mostly badly done remakes and reboots at the moment cos the TV and Film industries are struggling with original ideas and have for a long while now

Also obviously I don't know if they'll do the same kinda vibe as the first season but I'm not sure if it would go over well these days? Like the darkness of it, sure, and the philosophical pessimism could to an extent but if they do it as it was in the first season I think it'd just come across edgelordy and a bit cringe nowadays. Especially seeing as it really didn't do female characters well at all, they were mostly just there to "get in the men's way" or want their dick. I could see it getting labeled as "the incel show"
