Critic Reviews for Broadchurch Season 2
All Critics (31) | Top Critics (22) | Fresh (26) | Rotten (5)
The thrill is gone along with the subtlety.
What a relief... to find that the first four episodes of season two... are a promising continuation of season one.
What saves Broadchurch this season and is likely to keep people from jumping off the bandwagon is the cast, especially the new additions.
After the brilliant first season of Broadchurch came to a devastating conclusion, I didn't think a second season was necessary. I was wrong.
It's not a case of the more the merrier. Instead it's an even richer recipe for a seriously dramatic series that already had an A-game in place.
The new elements and mostly the performances make it worth staying around to see what other secrets lurk within.
Allow yourself to be swept along by the hallucinatory pictures and music, and it becomes absorbing.
Even though series two of Broadchurch can't be as compelling, tense and original as series one, it's still a must-see.
One of television's finest mysteries returns with a thrillingly acted second season, even if the central mystery isn't as compelling this time around.
I'm not convinced there needed to be a Season 2 of Broadchurch, but it's hard to get too grumpy when Tennant and Colman make such harmonious music together.
Fortunately, Broadchurch steps up to the challenge and in many ways surpasses itself.
Fortunately, Broadchurch, created and written by Chris Chibnall, still excels most frequently as a character study - to a notable degree, of all its major characters, who are sketched with vividness and, in almost every case, sympathy and poignance.
Audience Reviews for Broadchurch: Season 2

Feb 15, 2021Although season two may have lacked some of the thrills of season one, it still had plenty of drama and suspense to make up for it. The polished direction and strong performances from the entire cast keeps the series at a high bar and the introduction new characters and a new mystery to unravel keeps things fresh and unpredictable even if that mystery isn't quite as interesting as the previous.

Dec 14, 2020Season 2 was unbelievably bad, compared to season 1. Major plot holes, no real reason to actually continue, side stories that we are not interested in, with characters that don't make sense... My advise: Watch season 1 and then stop.

Oct 25, 2020Excellent all around
-
Oct 16, 2020Not a good mystery. Actually, the mystery itself and the people involved are insufferable. Additionally, this season makes the infuriating mistake of absolutely punishing the victims of the first season. And for what?
-
Sep 29, 2020The best season of the three. The best court scenes in all series history

Sep 02, 2020Here's a riddle: Q: Why are the makers of Broadchurch more energetic than other show makers? A: Because they used the least effort.
-
Sep 02, 2020There's a question I've been asking myself: why did I waste so much time watching this sh*tty excuse of a show?
-
Jun 17, 2020I quit watching during the trial. If you think the US legal system is bullsh*t then the British system is 1,000 times worse. Ignorant exclusion of the defendant's confession that was freely given before his wife rightfully kicked the sh*t out of him is proof that only injustice ruled by morons exist in the legal system. There was no evidence presented that the confession was coerced so only sh*theaded writers think they did a good script.

Feb 25, 2020Once again, superb television.

Feb 18, 2020Not as great as the first season.
