4/5

I’m sure some people might be frustrated that we aren’t hopping directly back into the main action of the series, but if I’m being honest, it took me maybe five minutes to be completely invested in Annie’s story.

Graceland suggests Paradise won’t have any kind of second season struggles with a compelling opening act that quickly sets up intriguing new scenarios and potential threats.

4.5/5

While there’s no shortage of shocking moments in these few episodes, the only thing that surprises me is just how little we see of Xavier in the first and third hours.

Only Paradise could turn Graceland into a survivor’s haven in the middle of the apocalypse and pull it off with pure emotion.

Paradise season 2, episode 1 is not at all what fans of the Hulu show will expect, but it’s a solid introduction for new special guest star Shailene Woodley.
