    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Listen, the season 2 kept some of the aspects that made season 1 memorable, but with the introduction of new characters that were way too thin to continue the series Wayward Pines missed suspense and atmosphere.
    The season 2 isn't bad, but it isn't good in many senses. The only thing that gives the season 2 some credit is the appearance of nurse Pam and its ending (considering that it was way more inteligent that the ending of season 1); I hope that with the possibility of a 3rd season the makers of this series will nail it.
    But by now, 6 out of 10    … Expand

    Horror isn't a bad fallback, and it's effectively done, considering the limitations of broadcast TV. Yet it's not enough to fully transition the show away from its foundation or even mask that the excitement is gone. "Wayward Pines" isn't a horror show, and skirting the line between genres doesn't do its story any favors.

    The leading man swap produces an uncomfortable sense of either deja vu or just pure repetitiveness and serves to highlight how even though the second season of Wayward Pines is still sometimes spooky, it hasn't been pushed forward nearly aggressively enough.

    Somehow, Wayward Pines turned into a bad CW show. And that really leaves Patric, Hope Davis, and new co-star Djimon Hounsou entirely stranded.
