User blog comment:Theory of everything/First Impressions: Season Two/@comment-206.211.150.253-20120822011602

I agree about the new intro... it seems long, cheesy, superhero- ish. I recall liking the original intro because it was so subtle, it seemed mysterious/ edgy/ dark. Really, a happy medium between the old and new versions would've been perfect if they felt they needed to make it more substantial.

Aside from the intro, I think the first 2 episodes of Season 2 have been great. I particularly liked getting more info on Renard in episode 2 and loved the half human/ half hexenbeist twist. Perhaps we'll learn more about Renard's hexenbeist mother now that it's been revealed he's only half human. I personally like the hexenbeists with their potions, mirrors and vanity like the evil queen in Snow White and I liked the dark nod to the Snow White fairytale in episode 2 of this season.

So far, I really like the direction this season seems to be heading with more info on the mythology already having been given and more emphasis on that appearing to be on the horizon with the addition of Renard's royal brother. I'm also not a Juliette fan so having her in a coma was good for me. I'd rather see more of the relationship between Monroe and Rosalie since I like those two characters.

What I hope they don't spend a lot of time on this season is the FBI going after Nick, suspecting him as a vigilante cop. I hope that concluded with what we saw in episode 2, but I have a feeling that may become a bigger part of the season. I also hope a lot of time isn't spent on the Juliette amnesia storyline. Although we know it's due to Adelind's toxin, it's too soap opera- ish.
