I agree with you. I'm not sure what the point of this season is. With Adnan's case, there was investigative reporting taking place. There was an element of mystery to be solved. There's none of that in Season 2. It's cut and dry. Bowe walked away from his unit. Whether or not he had good reason for doing so (I don't think he did), what's the mystery?? <br /><br />I've been listening to Undisclosed's updates of the hearing, too. So if Sarah needs to abandon us for this lousy second season, I'll live. ;)Becky Doughertyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11137408537369933534noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1457422002171939579.post-13681394359570169102016-02-08T20:21:22.270-06:002016-02-08T20:21:22.270-06:00I haven't listened to the second season yet.

Plus he said it wasn't that great anyway so I wasn't missing out on much. I think they've suffered from the classic curse of the follow up to a surprise hit. It never goes well. Maybe her third try might go better??Rachel ¦¦ A Nesting Nomadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08457683109401016555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1457422002171939579.post-35073792799332747922016-02-08T15:20:36.989-06:002016-02-08T15:20:36.989-06:00I didn't know enough about the Bergdahl case t...I didn't know enough about the Bergdahl case to have much of an opinion beforehand, and this season is still boring. I think part of what made season one interesting was her personal interest in Adnan as a person and trying to reconcile a seemingly nice guy with a horrible crime. The fact that she can't even interview her subject was a hindrance from the start. I haven't listened to any of the new Adnan stuff but thanks for reminding me - I probably will on my way home later.Laurenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01625993635674294934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1457422002171939579.post-31195267954796108492016-02-08T14:33:33.007-06:002016-02-08T14:33:33.007-06:00i had no idea there was even a second season, but ...i had no idea there was even a second season, but it doesn't sound like i want to listen to it anyway. i did enjoy the first one though so that's cool about the updates.Kristen @ See You In A Porridgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09592108031437491276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1457422002171939579.post-18637492215063617802016-02-08T09:36:48.637-06:002016-02-08T09:36:48.637-06:00This season is not at all what I expected.

She's playing him like a sympathetic character rather than someone who did something he shouldn't have. I got a lot more conflict in her reporting of Adnan and I think that's what made it so compelling to listen. She really didn't know if he's guilty or not. This one it just seems like he's a poor victim. <br /><br />I also COMPLETELY agree that she needs to stay in Baltimore rather than record a new season 2 episode (even if her live, unscripted reporting isn't exactly her strength).Jana @ Jana Sayshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15501814243709445827noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1457422002171939579.post-813978321217026702016-02-08T09:26:00.464-06:002016-02-08T09:26:00.464-06:00Ugh yes.

I was happy when you said on IG that she had Adnan updates. And yeah, I was grumpy she couldn't continue with his hearing because of her need to go back... must be a contract thing. Either way.
