Apr 3, 2018Halfway through, I think it's the equal of the first season. Hopefully the real Pete gets more airtime; he's a complete halfwit and probably the most amusing member of the cast.

Jan 6, 2021While not as strong as the first season it's still a very entertaining series. Sticks to what it knows best and does it well.
-
Season 2 is a fun, smart, and thrilling string of episodes that closely mimics the feel and formula of freshman year--maybe a little too closely. It’s not that there’s anything particularly wrong with the new Sneaky Pete. Fans should be pleased, but whenever it’s about to do something unexpected, the narrative retreats into familiarity.
-
Sneaky Pete, then, is of a certain style. And one that it does quite well. But without Cranston as the magnetic heavy at the center of the action (or, necessarily, the same kind of long con that defined the first season), the effort it takes to keep up your investment might be more challenging than last season.
-
Lack of emotional depth aside, the second season is largely a success because it doesn’t shift the formula too much, instead building on it to include even more intense scenes that use the audience’s knowledge against them. Sneaky Pete is so cleverly plotted that even the most obvious outcomes are imbued with tension.
