Really good opener to season 2!
A main complaint I heard about season 1 was how little Ben had to acclimate to his situation. Here, he had to get through the entire episode without help. Plus the group he was with had a good dynamic.
Not only was the end reveal a shocker, but the teaser for the season had a doozy of a Debra as well!![Eek 2](/images/smilies/eek2.gif)

We got the recap (+) and the predictable love triangle (-). This show could do better.

I thought episodes 2 and 3 were strong follow ups to the premier.
I especially appreciated Ben’s reaction on episode 3 to the entire situation. It was past due.
Also, I think something is goin got happen from the conversation with the waitress. Something about her line of work and until next time.

Not sure if anybody is still watching but I felt like the winter finale was good. Interesting challenge, although the focus was clearly on the extra layers.
Im still standing by my theory up thread that there will be a connection reveal in “present” time back at HQ.
Also, the production quality on this episode was top notch. Part of me wants know how they accomplished it (green screen), but part of me doesn’t want to know. It really seemed like they were in Egypt!

It looked like they were in Egypt because they were in Egypt. They shot on location.

I'm behind on this show, but catching up on Peacock. I'm on episode 12 of the 1st season about the trans daughter basketball player. Pretty powerful and heart wrenching episode. I know there are some people out there who don't enjoy these kinds of episodes and think they are preachy or that really stupid word, but I'm happy the show is tackling a topic that so many parents have been dealing with.

That's 5 more episodes to fulfill the 13 episode order.
The hit NBC drama, which previously aired on Wednesday nights, will return to NBC with the remaining episodes of Season 2 starting on Tuesday, Jan. 30 at 10/9c.
The sci-fi series will then close out the season with a two-hour finale on Tuesday, Feb. 20 at 9/8c.

The show returned last night for the backend of the season. The universe hates Ben.

Season (Series?) finale wrapped up things in a happy bow. Still would have liked Ben to end up with Hanna. She was a great addition to the season.

Looks like the writers intend for them to leap together, though I think their implication that “love keeps them together” is absurd.

I enjoyed the finale, but I spit out my drink when the "Butterfly effect accomplished!" message popped up on the computer. That was some amazing foresight by the programmer.
Next season will be interesting if there is one, but the Hannah episodes will be AWKWARD!

Finished up and have to say the season was strong. Really didn’t see the present plot unfold the way it did, although I did say there’d be a Hannah connection in the present.
A little odd they decided to put Ben and Madison back together so quickly. I felt the Hannah plot and connection between the two actors was much stronger. That said, talk about bittersweet.
The ending was pretty surprising. Reminded me a little of the penultimate Timeless ending with a big WTH.

That’s really unfortunate. The show took a while to find its footing and voice, but really hit a groove with season 2. The Hannah storyline was one of the best I’ve watched in a long time and will certainly make this series stand out for me.

Yeah, that's a shame but not surprising.
