Personally, I found the second season to be a decent show in its own right, but comparison is 100% the thief of joy in this case. Season one was one of the most gorgeous pieces of sci-fi media I've ever seen and season two just looked OK by comparison and had a much slower pace and felt more emotionally vulnerable compared to season one's hardboiled tone.
If they were separate shows I would be tempted not to compare them at all.

I didn't find it bad, but it was different, I think the show was trying to find a new direction to make the series last, which obviously didn't work.

The main actor was Space Philip Marlowe in two different shows and I just wanted more of that.
