There are times when pretty much every teenager thinks his or her parents are evil -- but what if it was actually true? That's the situation six Los Angeles teenagers find themselves in when they stumble upon a terrible secret and realize that their parents have been lying to them for their entire lives. The offspring begin an investigation to try to figure out what their guardians are after, while the adults wonder if their kids are hiding secrets of their own. The unlikely crew of teens bands together -- led by de facto leader and primary strategist Alex Wilder -- to stop their parents before it is too late. The Marvel series is from executive producer Josh Schwartz, whose resume of young-adult fare includes "The O.C." and "Gossip Girl."

What to Know

Critics Consensus

Runaways hits the ground running in its sophomore season, but though it deepens the connections between its expansive cast, formulaic stories and an over-dependence on plot devices holds it back from fully maturing into a compelling character study.

Well, folks, in its second season, Marvel's Runaways has gotten even better, taking most of the main components of the first season and supersizing them. Go to Full Review Liz Shannon Miller IndieWire 12/26/2018
B-
It's these sorts of details, not the too-deep alien mythology, which makes the show compelling - and if the show returns for a third season, hopefully it'll remember that. Go to Full Review Kathryn VanArendonk New York Magazine/Vulture 12/21/2018
It's not boring, but it's not as gripping as it could be, either. Compared with the stilted, motionless season one, season two of Runaways is a definite improvement. Go to Full Review Joseph Garcia Dynamic Duel Podcast 01/11/2023
2.5/5
While the constant lack of resolution makes for a compelling comic series, the show feels pointless. The side stories don't matter and the main story lacks closure. Go to Full Review Michael Cuby them. 10/12/2022
One of the only official Marvel-branded projects to adequately explore queerness through two of its central characters. Go to Full Review David Hogan hoganreviews.co.uk 05/02/2019
3/5
Very much a tale of two halves, with the 1st half doing a good job of tying up all the loose ends from S1, and then the 2nd half just stalled the series until the S3 set up... Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Khaztiel Delbod D @khaztielddenver_ Jul 25 La primera temporada fue la mejor de momento. Esta temporada sentí que había episodios de relleno y otros que no llegaban a ningún lado, el último episodio hizo que sintiera emocionó y me recordó porque me había gustando en un principio... Espero que con este final la última temporada esté mejor que esta.

The only reason I pushed through it was because it was a part of the MCU. There isn't a single likable character, and the acting is terrible. See more Eric M @RT86318106 03/24/2022 Runaways had its best season here. Giving us a few extra episodes just gives us more content well-worth watching. The characters develop so well, and we get to see so many more stories woven through this season. Marvel has done a really good job of introducing new characters through the story without making it feel abrupt or hurried. See more Read all reviews
