Since Jans liked em I'm going to give it a go.
Season two was acceptable, I guess, and they introduced some enjoyable characters, but they made a lot of decisions in their plot that directly violated the pseudo-science they detailed in season 1, and as a result of those boundaries being broken, the writing suffered tremendous, unforgivable plotholes. They also made three of their characters SO powerful that there was literally no way to write any conflict for them without having them make painfully stupid decisions all the time. By the third episode of S03, things had become so ridiculous it was unbearable to continue watching.
