**Review of Season 2** Click here for a video version of this review: https://youtu.be/u9pZGjxHK7c Season 2 of _Homecoming_ recently arrived on Amazon Video. I had no idea there was a second season coming, but having thoroughly enjoyed the first, this was really good news.  Season 2 picks up soon after the end of the previous season and takes off at a sprint. We meet a character called Alex who wakes up in a rowboat in the middle of a lake and we go from there. The connection to Geist, the company at the heart of season 1, is established early, and we are right there with her as she tries to figure things out. It’s one of those shows that keeps you in the dark and makes you work it out as you go along. It uses flashbacks that overlap with the previous season to fill in blanks here and there, and it all comes off as a great package.  The season is well written and one of the things in particular that I liked was that just when you think you have it all figured out, they pull the rug from under you. Things they show you at one point make you think one thing, then are later shown that they are completely different. It’s a great style that kept us interested all the way through.  Like the first season, this second one has less than 10 episodes, and they are all around the 30min mark. So if you like twisting turning stories with lots of surprises, now’s a good time to get on board.
