Review: A deeper exploration of the hyper connected world of The Beam
Rating: 5 out of 5
Date: 06 3, 2014
After an action packed first season, in season 2, The Beam slows down (but just a little bit) to explain why the world is as it is and to explore the characters and their motivations in more detail. If anything, this makes the story even more interesting and builds the stage for an exciting season three.To talk about the specifics of the characters and development would be spoiling the experience, so I will just say Truant and Platt manage to fill the story with surprises while keeping the characters and their motivations believable. There are no black and white cookie cutter characters in this story.If you enjoyed season one, I'm sure you will read this one even without my recommendation, but here it is anyway. And if you are new to The Beam and unsure of starting on the series, after finishing season, 2 I can tell you to go for it: season 2 is just as good as season 1 -- and I have a feeling that things will be getting even more interesting in season 3.
