Critic Reviews for Wayward Pines: Season 2
All Critics (14) | Top Critics (7) | Fresh (6) | Rotten (8)
The second season is more a matter of life or death as the stakes grow higher and the original intrigue becomes less important.
Season 1 was, at best, a guilty pleasure with a weak ending. Now, you almost feel bad for the series in its second season, limping along, trying to rebuild from what little was left.
I was willing to give Wayward Pines a chance to justify a second season. It simply doesn't do so.
Wayward Pines may not be the most unique show on television, but it can be a fun way to spend an hour when the series isn't taking itself too seriously.
While the new main character Theo isn't that interesting, the trajectory of the characters we know and where the story is headed certainly are.
The world left behind is still uniquely appealing and ambitiously high concept: a small town held captive by sinister, self-righteous, fascist teens called the First Generation and encircled by a goblin-infested hellscape? Yes, sign me up please.
Audience Reviews for Wayward Pines: Season 2
It lost the mystery but it was still quite a fun tale of survival, even if all the first generations were killed off...
