Other reviewers are obviously not aware of the other books in the Bill Hodges trilogy. The second season of Mr Mercedes is based on the third book End Of Watch. It is completely different hence the change of tone in the show. End Of Watch was actually what got me in to this trilogy so I'm really happy to see the show go in this direction. They've done an amazing job! The way they have Brady in his control room is the great way to show what's going on in his head.

In this episode I loved the end, the staircase walk, it was such a good way to show Brady and his love for pushing people in to suicide. I'm very excited to see the way this season goes even though I know how the book goes.

Season 1 had an interesting dynamic despite some bizarre, unnecessary, dragged out side stories\characters (seriously who didn't see the electronics store manager getting offed from episode1) but 2 good leads made it work.

But in this episode, we have a suicide. Why? Because this nurse has a ........psychic connection with the comatose mass murderer? What a stupid story. Of course this followed a detective playing with the killer's penis in hospital bed because he could (killer could see this happening in his mind apparently) and then killer pleasuring himself after getting nurse to feel herself up after establishing this psychic connection. Sorry he was pleasuring himself in his mind because he's still a coma this whole time. Who thinks this crap up?

Gleeson is the reason I started this and by far the only reason I sticking with this season. So weird right now. And not the good kind.
