Season 2 Review:
One of my favorite parts of The Sandman season 2 is how much more lore is chronicled and how much time Dream spends with his family, in whatever form this takes. While it would have been fun to see more of Death (Kirby), one of the most level-headed of Dreams' family, learning more about his other siblings was interesting and kept The Sandman season 2 fresh.

Season 2 Review:
Season 2 is more heavily serialized, unfurling a longer arc about the search for a missing sibling. Whether that carries the same appeal might depend on a viewer’s affection for Dream’s eccentric clan, combined with a curiosity about the politics and jurisdictions of the show’s various independent realms.

Watch lots of tv and this is great. Great effects, great story. For at least once Metacritic critics are wrong. Story is not hard to follow at all. It’s a fun ride. a great escape from dog days of August. Enjoy!

Perfect adaptation. Perfect. More than thirty years waiting for this and it has surpassed all my expectations. We need the second season soon, please.

This show is... not great. You can tell it is pulled from solid source material because the world-building is awesome, but that is all there is to it.

There's a few Whiteness in this woke crap / cultural appropriation.
Only actor that fits the role is Tom Sturridge.

Netflix stupidly tried to please all minorities. They stupidly do not care about the canon, in short, a shame, as with the Witcher.
