Less philosophy, more action thriller
Well, slightly less philosophy. More like sociology. Anyway.
My main gripe is the Major trading depth of character for depth of cleavage. She's less borderline-psychopath bad-ass, more passive eye-candy. Not necessarily a good move, considering the franchise is built around her. On the other, the ensemble cast gets a lot of character building, so there's that.
Both seasons are mostly one overarching plot each, across 26 episodes, so casual viewer beware. Also, can run quite talkative, especially the 2nd gig (Individual 11).
Still, creative, well written, clever. Loved it.
