Apple TV's mind-bending sci-fi thriller Dark Matter is back for its second season, once again starring Joel Edgerton and Jennifer Connelly in a continuation of Blake Crouch's bestselling novel.
We are reunited with tormented Jason Dessen (Edgerton) as the fallout from his journey across parallel realities plays out, with secrets to be gradually unravelled as part of a staggered release schedule by the streamer.
Our Dark Matter season 2 review notes that the show can't quite recapture the spark of the gripping first outing, with Radio Times' sci-fi and fantasy editor Louise Griffin expressing doubt over its supposed three-season plan.
She writes: "The ingenuity of the original run can't be replicated and, having gone beyond its source material, the plot meanders and struggles to push the (brilliant) initial premise much further." Ouch!
