Watched the final 5 episodes of season 2 last night and holy guacamole, I frickin' LOVE, LOVE, LOVED IT!!
That was such a great ride they took us on this year, I'm glad they toned down the violence and chaos this season and took us more into the family drama and boardroom wheelings and dealings, which is what I expected season 1 to be
I enjoyed season 1(except for the magic bullshit last episode) but this season had so much more depth and emotion and charm, it wasnt just nonstop explosion, murder, death, explosion, shoot out, explosion every episode
Although there still was some really chaotic violence, death, tragedy and chaos sprinkled about here and there
Speaking of charm, that Cheyenne is quite the pistol there, isnt she, white girls aint s'posed to have cakes like that, ooh la lala
"Youre the one that said handjob"
I frickin' hated Rebecca the lawyer so much in season 1 and was quite triggered that she didnt get her comeuppance in the end but I'll be danged if she didnt have one of the all time greatest babyface turns of all time here in season 2, that scene in the police station was bad ass heck, after I finished the episode I had to go back and watch that part again, it was so dope
Sam Elliott was a great addition as the wise old man learned from a lifetime of regrets
The ending of this season was so much better than the ending of season 1, I am quite looking forward to season 3, although Taylor Sheridan not being involved anymore(since he's leaving Paramount and all his great shows behind for a new deal at NBC) does dampen that a scootch but hopefully they can the momentum going without him
I wonder how much of Tommy's statement in the final episode, "I gotta see if I got one more homerun left in me", was actually Sheridan speaking about leaving Paramount
Anyhoo, this was a really great run so far and if any of you are looking for a great new show and havent given this one a shot yet, I give it my Official 7 Thumbs Up Highest Recommendation
