    Season 2 of BLL could aptly be summed up as an exercise among top-level performers to deliver truly piss-poor dialogue convincingly. They don't; no-one could. But maybe there's something like beauty in this visual proof that some things are just plain impossible; like a video of Joey Chestnut failing to eat a stack of hotdogs that's just. too. tall.

    No second series slump here. Actually, sometimes it was too fast, going for short, staccato scenes, which can be frustrating because often the conversations begged to evolve much more. But this is a small niggle. This stellar cast of women is a buffet of flavours.

    To everything there is a season, and this is Streep’s. Monterey belongs to Mary Louise now. God help the five.

    Though there are a few moments where Kelley gives in to his tendencies for burlesque – as in the characterization of the principal of the elementary school attended by the main characters’ children – in the first three episodes, “Big Little Lies” retains the invigorating mix of dark comedy and drama that made the first season so special. ... Rather than running out of gas in its second season, “Big Little Lies” is more deliciously watchable than ever.
