3/4
In a darker, more dangerous, much improved second season, the sublime Emma Myers leads us deeper into the shadows of crime as her girl sleuth chases serial rapists and killers and finds her true self. Go to Full Review
Valerie Anne Autostraddle Jun 2
It’s stressful and interesting and there are plenty of crimes, clues, and suspects to go around. Go to Full Review

2/5
It’s often guilty of having one eye on the finishing line presented by the upcoming third series – frantically laying groundwork for Jackson’s biggest swing rather than telling its current story as well as possible. Go to Full Review

3.5 / 5
A Good Girl's Guide to Murder Season 2 feels darker, grittier and more mature thematically. But the mystery at the heart of this season feels a little less intricate and effective compared to the first season’s. Go to Full Review

Haarishanker P @HaariBat Jun 30 Season 2 successfully raises the stakes by taking Pip into an even darker and more emotionally complex mystery. Instead of repeating the same formula, the story explores the personal impact of her previous investigation while introducing a new case filled with suspense and moral dilemmas. The mystery is layered, unpredictable, and keeps the tension high until the finale. Emma Myers once again shines, portraying Pip's emotional growth and the psychological toll of constantly chasing the truth. The relationship between Pip and Ravi continues to develop naturally, adding emotional depth without overshadowing the central mystery. While the season occasionally feels heavier and slower than the first, its stronger character development and higher emotional stakes make it a compelling continuation. The finale delivers satisfying twists while leaving viewers eager for what comes next. See more Camily D @RT10790272 Jun 29 I loved this season! The cast isn't famous, but the quality is incredible. The plot revolves around Pipa investigating a closed case. It’s a good thriller—exciting and scary—while also touching on themes like love, friendship, and courage. The ending served as a great hook for the next season. See more Andy T @andyxvoid Jun 28 Headline: Hello, police? Fire everyone, a schoolgirl is doing your job better. This amazing show proves one thing: a determined straight-A student with a laptop and a looming deadline is more dangerous than any SWAT team. While the local police have been fast asleep for five years after closing a murder case, an ordinary high schooler decides to take it on as her school project. And that’s when a whirlwind of skeletons in closets begins—something even Sherlock Holmes himself would envy. It's a total binge-watch. The characters feel alive, the twists don't feel forced, and the atmosphere keeps you on the edge of your seat until the very end. After watching, you get this crazy urge to go out and solve some cold case yourself—or, at the very least, finally finish your work reports with the same passion Pip uses to hunt down a killer. See more E W. @RT35362034 Jun 23 Not as good as last season but still entertaining. See more Elisha I @asapidox Jun 21 A strong season that kept raising the stakes with each episode. The mystery stayed engaging, the tension built well, and the final stretch absolutely delivered, capped off by a perfect finale. Gripping, emotional, and hard to stop watching. See more Diego M @RT95169441 Jun 13 It's a classic series, it has everything a series needs to be enjoyed, and Emma is a great actress. See more Read all reviews
