    Like the cast & characters but lost the charm from Season 1. Very disappointing the lack of story direction. Emily seems self-absorbed with fame. A lot of assumptions to Emily’s true focus and interest. Her writings seems less important in Season 2. I find myself bored by the first 8-10 minutes of every episode. Gotta feeling there will be no season 3.

    The running device of the Nobody apparition makes Season 2, while still raucously funny, a more serious and spooky outing. So does the advance of real-life history, as the Civil War looms closer. ... There is little hard documentation from this period in the poet’s life. All of which frees this show to take poetic license — to tell its version of the truth, but to tell it weirdly, delightfully slant.

    Dickinson season two is just as searching as its subject, and nearly as eloquent.

    Much about this new season of "Dickinson" feels more alive and humorous than its excellent first while maintaining the tension that makes its heroine real to us.
