Running Point settles into a nice comedic groove in its second season, with an ensemble that works well together and new additions to the cast that fit in pretty well.
-
All that time spent on high-profile pop-ins and meandering storylines sometimes comes at the expense of further developing the core characters. .... Still, thanks to Hudson’s performance as the likable but deeply flawed and self-centered Isla, and the crisp writing that serves up steady laughs in each episode, “Running Point” seems poised to stay in contention for multiple seasons to come.
-
Despite a few shortcomings, Running Point Season 2 continues a successful streak for Netflix thanks to the cast's chemistry and the sharp writing.
-
The stories still feel authentic and layered, and the dynamics between characters are what ultimately save the season from falling apart because of its sometimes-flimsy plot.
