    The best thing season two does is dig into both how alluring and how dangerous the sensates’ connection is.

    The show’s second season continues to appropriately evolve this year, doing a good job of not only expanding upon--and answering--central questions raised by the end of season 1, but also not being coy with finally explaining the Big Mysteries and introducing new knots for viewers to unravel.

    It’s a dizzying, bewildering, wonderful joy to watch their communal moments.

    Visually, it remains one of the most beautiful and dynamic series on Netflix’s roster. ... The show is always strongest when focused on the sensates working together.

    Television is the medium that grants auteurs the most creativity. It can lead to indulgent storytelling, but in the case of a series like Sense8, real artistry, too.

    Sense8 is more visual feast and emotional touchstone than it is heavyweight story or smart puzzle. For some, it will be a guilty pleasure, but that might be selling short the important "love is love" message it espouses. Sense8 is probably better described as a series you experience more than understand.

    When Sense8 returns the sensates to their distinct and isolated story arcs, the series still falters.

    For all its evident ambition, and its veneer of inclusion, Sense8 is no more interested in the messy details of progress than The Avengers.
