A promising first season left many people eagerly awaiting a second. And whilst the wait might have been expectant of a high quality continuation in the saga no fan can be left disappointed. A supremely talented cast holds aloft an intelligently conceptualised show that bears both fruit and scars.
The morality of killing monsters has never been examined critically. Yet it poses interesting notions.
