I’m amazed season two wasn’t already finished before the strike. The last episode aired in 2022. What were they doing all year?

Yeah, it's from two published books so far, called the "Jackpot" series. The Jackpot is a Black Swan Event that decimates the population in the future and creates a new kind of techno-oligarchical society. These future oligarchs are in constant conflict with each other and as such develop a way in which to infiltrate the past through VR sims to alter their destiny.
