Concept: 1/4 (Bad)
Story: 1/4 (Bad)
Characters: 2/4 (Indifferent). Everyone's less of a jackass this season, which is a huge improvement. They're still a far cry from good characters, but at least they're watchable characters.
Dialog: 2/4 (Indifferent)
Pacing: 2/4 (Indifferent)
Cinematography: 2/4 (Indifferent)
Special effects/design: 1/4 (Bad).
Acting: 2/4 (Indifferent)
Music: 1/4 (Bad)
Subjective Rating: 5/10 (Indifferent, 2/4). It's considerably improved from the first season. Someone's paying enough attention to avoid the major plot holes and continuity errors. A few episodes are even good - but for every good episode, there are two bad ones.
Objective Rating (Average): 1.6/4 (Eh)
