Runaways Season 2

(1/5) > >>

Mandu:
Still much better plot and characters than The Gifted.  Of course that's not a very high bar.

A lot more action this year and the parents aren't being portrayed heroically like they were at the end of last season.

I'm most of the way through the season and it looks like it will still be all about the parents and aliens with no hint of the Runaways actually running away.  One good part is that Molly is actually acting more like 14 than 10 most of the time.

Tenzhi:
How am I supposed to know about these things in a timely fashion when you don't start the thread until the season is done (or mostly, anyway).  Now I gotta hope it's a Hulu lingerer rather than a only-5-episodes kinda thing.  ;P

Vee:
All 13 dropped Friday. Mandu's just a go-getter.

Oh, good.  I was beginning to wonder what I don't pay him for!

Don't know what you mean. The Runaways have actually run away. This was firmly established before the end of last season. They're even wanted for murder. Doesn't get much more running away than that.

That said, the kids are still way too trusting/forgiving of their parents, imo, and the series still seems way too coy with the villainy of many of the parents, but they're coming around.

Really wish they'd done something other than the cult stuff, but it's okay.

Spoiler for Hidden: They actually seem to have brought the show more in-line with the books, although not exactly. The Gibborim seem more like the books. I wish Xavin would have been played by two actors instead of a woman. Xavin will always be kind of a creep to me because he started male. But then, this Xavin is way too forceful with the "betrothed" thing.
