    Even with accomplished performers like David Morrissey and Keeley Hawes as the parents, Season 2 is the lesser in just about every way. It perks to life at the end, though, when the action settles into a cross-border manhunt that recaptures some of the eerie, hinterlands quality that made the first season distinctive.

    The series doesn’t lack for suspenseful moments, the settings are intriguing, and there’s much to be said for the strong performance by Mr. Morrissey and that of Roger Allam. ... None of this can offset the burdens of a production lost in its own wilderness of plot schemes.

I thoroughly enjoyed season 1 and after just the first episode of season 2 I am immediately pulled back in. If you are unfamiliar with The Missing take note that each season stands on its own so you can jump right into the current season without having watched season 1. Another example of why we are in a second Golden Age of television.… Full Review »

For me,The plot is convoluted, and often not particularly enjoyable. The mood is excessively gloomy, and the characters are mostly unlikable. For me, the show is too one-note, and by the midpoint of the season, I gave up in search of a different type of show with a more coherent storyline. After all, TV should be entertaining, and this felt more like punishment.… Full Review »
