The action scenes were great but the rest of it I could take or leave. It really seems like they meant to have a 10th episode. Odd place to end a season.

I would t be surprised if the first season was green lite to 18+ episodes, but they decided to spilt into two.

This may have been pointed out before, but it did come up in the finale.... they are saying, and apparently subtitles are also saying it, the Brute who took the artifact and who Cortana pointed out on the finale battlefield is Atriox . https://halo.fandom.com/wiki/Atriox

Dig the show, glad it turned out to be solid and entertaining, with an effort to make a compelling story instead of a brainless action show

A Kwan-centric episode? Total buzzkill! Why does anybody think that boring, petulant children make for good cinema? It's a constant problem with Hollywood writers.
She's getting as much screen time as the Master Chief or Halsey. I have my differences with the game purists, but I hope we can all agree that UNSC vs Covenant should be what this show is about.

As a somewhat side note I replayed through Halo 1-3 and it's a pretty solid story told over three games. I had forgot how they really flowed from one to the other. I wish they would tell more of a story like that but I understand that the games don't have the nuance that would be required for a TV show.

Games certainly can have a nuanced story. Halo does not. I like the story and it works great for a shooter. But would never work for a TV show. It's basically shoot shoot shoot. Go to another place. Shoot shoot shoot. Oh the flood that's new. Shoot shoot shoot. Destroy one Halo. Shoot shoot shoot. Now I'm an elite. Shoot shoot shoot. Back to Master Chief. Shoot shoot shoot oh wait we're shooting brutes now. Shoot shoot shoot with the elites now. Shoot shoot shoot. Now the flood is with us. Shoot shoot shoot. Now the flood is against us. Giant worm. Shoot shoot shoot. Done. All interspersed with janky but fun driving segments. Not exactly made for TV. I still have the last two episodes to watch but I hope that we see more from the covenant side. I thought that was pretty cool how alliances changed as larger and larger threats loomed in the games.

Totally new show runner for season 2 so maybe some of the stuff Halo Fans hated will be fixed?

I was thinking the same until the credential of "Fear the Walking Dead" popped up.

So when is season 2 happening? A big gap between seasons 1 and 2 didn't work for Westworld and I doubt it works for Halo.

Breaking News - Paramount+ Announces "Halo" Season Two Start of Production | TheFutonCritic.com
They wrapped filming in May according to Pablo Schreiber
So most likely they are still in post production. It's only been 2 months since they wrapped.

The first season is also available on Amazon Prime without commercials. I never played Halo but I thought the series was ok. I don't get all the hate for Kwan, although she did act stupidly at times. So there are only 4 Spartans in this whole universe. Seems like they should have more.

I think there are more Spartans. We are just focused on Master Chief and those connected to him.
