Re: Barry
Gotta agree. Last season Barry had two strong goals: achieve acceptance in his acting class and avoid getting caught by the police for his murders.
This season his main acting goal is to prepare an effective scene for the personal showcase. His main non-acting goal is to not have to be a hitman anymore. The stakes for neither feel as high as last season's. It's left the show feeling like it's been meandering a bit, spinning its wheels.
Overall I'm still liking it, mostly due to the great characters (Noho Hank continues to be a scene stealer). But I agree with what was said above -- I'm not sure how many seasons they'll be able to get out of this premise.
