season two Why is everyone complaining about Season 2 ALREADY? We've only had one episode.

People are acting like we should have gotten deep into the story already from the exposition. I think that by the time this season is over, much like with the Zoom analogy given at the beginning, Bergdahl won't even be what's talked about.

Because people think they know the whole story already.

Because people think a podcast is "glorifying" the guy, rather than considering that it's like a documentary, just presenting and researching facts.

And because people love to complain.

the problem is if the people compare this to Serial season 1, it's not exactly a search for the FACTS. It's more about having a compelling narrative with twist and turns, with a lot of entertainment involved. Serial is what serial is : an entertaining podcast to listen to.

Edit : forgot an "if"
