So Hunters season 2 has dropped on Amazon Prime a mere 3 years after season 1. Despite doing a ‘previously on’, I struggled to remember anything about season 1, meaning I had to resort to Wikipedia.

I’m two episodes in and it doesn’t feel as impactful as it used to. Pretty boring and pretentious. The 1970s aesthetic is good though.

Anyone watching it?

Watched the series this week.

Last couple of episodes went downhill IMO. Watchable, but not that great...last episode seemed a bit...preachy maybe.

First series was better, and think it could have been taken forwards in a better way.

We've just finished watching the new series, it was good but I thought the first series was better. I wondered if the ending sequence paved the way for another series.

It could go either way... But based on the last few of this series, I hope they resist.

(I hope I don't feel the same about The Boys when that's out - I think this year. Though I suspect I will).

Was going to post about this in the prime thread, but no need!

Murph has it licked tbh, and it really does feel like a long time since S1.


Got to be honest, the whole "where does Pacino fit?" question was weird, keeping a big star, but sadly probably a fk load of your budget, for the sake of a big name, feels like a mistake.

Thanks flipping between years was far less crisp than others have done it. That they hinted at some character back stories suggests to me that y will pitch for a 3rd, but with the sanctimonious ending, I can't see me bothering.

I thought it was like many second albums. Utter dross.

Finished season 2. Some enjoyable parts, but ultimately a pointless return after 3 years only to rush to a finish (this is the last season). Huge wasted potential.

Indeed. Only the stand alone penultimate episode showed any imagination.

The penultimate episode reminded me of Quentin Tarantino’s movie Inglorious B… Excellent episode. As for the rest, see above.
