Definitely worth starting if you enjoyed season 1. No reason you shouldn't be in the same boat (or suit) as the rest of us.

Well now we know for sure Juliette and Solo aren't alone.
Something I was thinking about tonight while watching Juliette deal with symptoms of the bends, could that be related to the sickness the Sheriff has? His wife commented on how he wasn't displaying any symptoms of his illness in the down deep. I'm not sure if the silo could create that kind of pressure without water but I did find the parallels interesting.

For the complainers, it's getting good again
First truly good, start-to-finish thrilling episode of the season, IMO. Finally.
I tuned out for a few episodes but will happily pick it up again. The latest episode is the good one?
Episode seven was the best of the season, IMO. The latest one - episode eight - wasn't bad, but not as good as eight.
It is way too dark in the Juliette scenes. I know they're trying to simulate a dark silo, but it's virtually impossible to see anything if you have lights on in your living room
The effing dumbest thing about this series to be quite honest 
Caught up now. I almost have to skip over the Common scenes, he is a terrible actor

Common sucks as an actor but at least something plot-wise is happening in his scenes/plotline.
I'm already skipping over large portions of the Juliette scenes. How many times do we need to put her in "danger" when everyone knows she has plot armor. I don't need to see her wiggle in the water for 30 seconds of screen time - it legitimately provides zero value because she can't die and we, the viewers, know it. And they've done the same "will she or won't she die in the water?!?!" twice already this season! They've also done it with Solo going to "kill her," her cutting herself with the knife, her walking across the bridge she created (my favorite waste of 5+ minutes of screen time), the infection, the bow shot, the last scene of the previous episode and probably others I'm forgetting. Zero plot advancement since she got into the new silo, just her running in circles and getting meaningless injuries.
Tensionless peril.
I get that and it's been a little boring and frustrating for me too, but this show has shown that they don't care about plot armor. At least in season 1. It was like 2-3 episodes before they revealed Juliette and for those first episodes they let us to believe that the sheriff was the main character before killing him off which was a good twist. So it wouldn't surprise me if they unexpectedly kill off Juliette in this season just to keep it lively
No way would they spend the entire season showing her trying to get back to the silo just to be killed before even attempting it. I agree with the poster above you, it feels like we're just spinning our wheels in her storyline while the original silo's story has been moving at a good pace. I mean, episode before last we got the cliffhanger tease that there was someone else in the silo. Then this episode, we still end the episode not knowing anything more about them. Other than what they look like.
I really do like this show, I just think the Juliette storyline this season has been way, way too slow and way too hard to actually see

Stress and nervous tension are now serious social problems in all parts of the Galaxy, and it is in order that this situation should not be in any way exacerbated that the following facts will now be revealed in advance.
The planet in question is in fact the legendary Magrathea. The deadly missile attack shortly to be launched by an ancient automatic defense system will result merely in the breakage of three coffee cups and a mouse cage, the bruising of somebody's upper arm, and the untimely creation and sudden demise of a bowl of petunias and an innocent sperm whale. In order that some sense of mystery should still be preserved no revelation will yet be made concerning whose upper arm has been bruised.
I would say, maybe the intention isn't to cause tension/suspense for the viewer, but to just show she isn't on vacation in the new silo, that getting back is a struggle. Not sure if that does much for the plot either though :/
Live look at the writers for her storyline though. Oh she gets a bad infection and almost dies, oh she gets the benz, that is going to be hard right?
