    One of my favorite shows airing currently. You never know quite where it is going, always surprising. Deals with some deep themes of religion and compassion and deception. And manages to be entertaining and scary at the same time!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Loving that we are seeing more of the million year old holy war that decimated Kepler (possibly?), through the relics and church cave in this season, that were teased in Mother's vision from season 1, the pentagonal temple, and the tarot cards. Is Sol an actual spirit or an AI singularity? why does it want to create beings incarnate (the snakes birthed from androids)? Do they amplify its power? So many directions this show can still go, and I'm here for any of them. Greatest sci-fi of all time.… Expand

    Holy cow, I didn't know how it could be better than season 1, but season 2 manages to deliver some of the best content from the mind of Ridley Scott since Alien. This show is highly underwatched and underrated. If you are a fan of heady sci fi that also explores the ins-and-outs of human nature with a fine toothed comb, while also satirizing theology. then you've came to the right place.Holy cow, I didn't know how it could be better than season 1, but season 2 manages to deliver some of the best content from the mind of Ridley Scott since Alien.

No big stars in it either which to me makes it all the more believable. Excellent programming from Ridley and HBOmax!!!… Expand

    It's even better than the first season. Incredibly unique with an excellent visual style. Very hopeful that they confirm more seasons.

    One of the weirdest yet most satisfying sci-fi shows on tv at the moment. With it's off the wall plot twists it's almost impossible to see where this show is headed but you do know it will be one hell of a ride.

    A future-shock caper with real weight, it harks back satisfyingly to the sci-fi that existed before George Lucas fired up his lightsaber and ruined all the fun.

    With a confidence that seems to grow with each episode, Guzikowski’s series proves a formidable descendant of its great predecessors, imbued with their finest qualities as well as its own distinctive virtues.

    It’s exciting, with each twist and turn arriving as clues to better understand this crazy place, from its smallest elements to its greatest themes. And yet, the answers to the mysteries always take a backseat to the interpersonal dynamics among the survivors.
