Can't wait and have been looking forward to S2!

If you haven't watched the first (and most haven't) season, do so immediately.

I completely forgot about this series.

I suppose that's bound to happen when they take three years between seasons. I can barely remember anything about this series other than Al Pacino slumming in a streaming tv series and a bunch of people got killed at a backyard barbecue.

Excited to hear this. Really enjoyed the first season and didn't know if was going to get renewed.

FUCKING HITLER?!?!?!?! As soon as "Argentina" came on the screen I said, "oh no, surely they aren't going to...." oh geez.




The twist at the end was a classic "gotcha" that makes absolutely zero sense when you think about it. Even Pacino at his peak couldn't sell that bullshit, man.

I've rarely seen a show derail itself quite so completely over the course of a single episode. Very, very bad writing.
Completely agree with this. I thought it was a fantastic first season up until that final episode. No amount of suspension of disbelief was going to be able to overcome that, unfortunately.

One more run and everything that they have done will have been worth it. From Executive Producer Jordan Peele comes the epic final season of Hunters, January 13.

Udo Kier is a good casting for Hitler

Also, it's really weird seeing Logan Lerman as an adult. He's grown up so much since season 1

Season 2 has dropped.

Just watched the first episode and … I don’t remember much about this. I was confused as shit during the recap.

First episode does ease us back in, but I forgot who half these people were.

I do like where the FBI agent’s arc seems to be headed!

Finished this up today. Entertaining enough second season. All the Pacino scenes of course were flashbacks, so thankfully they didn't magically bring him back to life
