If Fogelman’s intent was to make the first two episodes of Season 2 feel like a different show, then he succeeded. It just happens to be a show that a lot of us have seen too many times before.

"Season 2 is masterful storytelling that borrows from the best of Lost and The Leftovers to create a compelling and thrilling narrative."

Who’d have thought to inject not just hope but … profound kindness into the apocalypse. Dan Fogelman. That’s who.

The first half is a bit disconcerting, in spite of very well endearing characters and poignant sub-stories, as it turns somehow into a survival drama far from the bunker. But the second half definitely worths five stars: some nerve racking suspense, unexpected development, and a cliff hanger which demands a 3rd season ASAP make it a must see, one of the best shows at the moment.

I think it's better than the first season. And I loved the first season.

Season 2 of *Paradise* decides to break out of its shell and think big—sometimes even too big. The series fully embraces sci-fi, expands its world, and introduces a host of new characters, but amidst it all, it still finds room to maintain that emotional drama that holds everything together. Does it have a slow start? Yes. Are there decisions that make you go, "Huh?"? Yes. But once it gets going, it works really well, especially with the plot twists and the ending, which makes the journey worthwhile. And in the end, that’s it: it may stumble along the way, but it knows exactly where it wants to go. And that makes all the difference.

I mentioned it as a side not in my review of season 1, but in season 2 the tacky, over-dramatic horrible cover songs really ruin every scene. The emotional birth scene where the actors deliver awesome performances is just killed by the silly Elvis cover. It kind of becomes unbearable and I hope the correct this for season 3.

Better than Season 1, the pace, the visuals, the story, the acting, even the music was better. Well done.

Season starts strong but devolves into madness. They should have ended it after this season and had a civil war with inconclusive ending. This one is about to get kooky and off the rails
