    The return of Invincible season 2 was met with a lot of claims that the series had a downfall thanks to the midseason break. But now that the weekend's past, it's time we ask the question...is it true? Did this break kill the hype around Invincible?

    That break was rieiculous, but it's STILL one of the best shows on Prime. I hope that it doesn't pull its punches and that people catch up because Invincible absolutely still deserves it. I hope Amazon doesn't cancel this gem because of their own braindead stupidity because people are gonna love where this story goes, and it only gets more wild and unexpected from here. Frankly, as good as season 1 was, that was basically the prologue, and people who haven't read the comic have no idea where it's gonna go. This show deserves to finish its story more than most of the shows on Amazon, and I hope audiences give it that chance.

    The thing is, this break could've worked a little bit if they gave us a release date.
    When stranger things s4 was coming out, people were aware that it was going to be split into 2 parts and we even had a release date for the 2nd part being next month, which is what made the cliffhanger at the end of part 1 work. Heck, even in Spiderman atsv the cliffhanger at the end worked since we all had a release date we could count on so we were all like "alr next year lets go." And even if that film doesnt have a release date right now, we at least know why they need the time.
    These episodes were finished, we had no release date when the break happened they just made us wait a whole season until they could finally release one of the 4 already finished episodes.

    I think people are way overreacting about the hype being gone because they are literally posting about it and watching it. There is a broader issue of companies putting in the work to market their entertainment anymore. Across the board I’ve noticed more and more companies relying almost exclusively on fan labor to push their content than actually going to the trouble to market it. That works for some shows that already have massive fan bases but you can’t rely solely on fan labor without viewership taking a drop. I really hope the backlash over the season gap prevents Amazon from pulling this bullshit with season 3 and that we get to have the 7-8 seasons that Robert Kirkman envisioned.

    If I had to give a fair assessment I will agree with a portion of what’s been mentioned, yes Amazon really did effectively kill the hype that Invincible had as it was awkwardly left off on a cliffhanger that really wasn’t a cliffhanger, only to return with a brutal episode that the fifth episode had like it’s honestly unfair and unfortunate to the show.
    I think if it did go on a 16 episode season it would be more effective, of course it would take longer to get in season wise but in the long run if this happened again 8 episodes would still keep it fresh and the hype would be there, but Amazon wouldn’t pay for more episodes so sadly we get what we get and have to ultimately hype ourselves up again just to get it going again.

    While I do think they made some bad decisions, people are definitely overreacting and hating, if we’re being honest here, just to hate. Although the release schedule did kill the hype a little, I think what also killed its hype is people’s overreactions and being way too upset about the break. Instead of posting a tick-tock complaining again about the release schedule, they should make shorts about the episode that did come out. But as usual, people value drama more than actually fucking enjoying a good show many people worked hard on.

    my friend group and I hate waiting weeks between episodes so every new show we get into, we show our interest, wait for the show/season to finish airing, then binge it in a super fun night with the boys. Though we waited a good while for season 2 to finish, when we eventually binged all of season 2 the very day the last episode was aired, we enjoyed the hell out of it. I get that the majority of audiences don't do the same but because we did- we had a great time, and it was a great season! So to hear that hype has died for a majority of the audience (if that's even true) I feel lucky enough to be able to look away from negativity like this because i'm still super hooked and excited for the future of the show, as someone who has not read the comics.

    The break between the season feels like they were making sure to fix scheduling issues after what happened with season 1 into 2. They needed time to make sure that the next season would air at a fixed time window, as to not kill viewership even more. They also probably wanted to make sure the creative department weren't overworked to meet demanding deadlines, so ultimately they took a mid season break to finalise everything and get seasons out quicker. That and probably dealing with Amazon jargon.
