Craig Mathieson The Age (Australia) It doesn’t always make sense, but the narrative hums along. Rated: 3/5 Oct 30, 2024 Full Review Abhishek Srivastava The Times of India Season two of ‘Lioness’ marks a definite upgrade over its predecessor, delivering a more gripping plot while staying true to the show’s core ethos. It’s bolder, more thrilling, and features sharper character development. Rated: 3.5/5 Apr 11, 2025 Full Review Katey Stoetzel But Why Tho? A Geek Community Lioness Season 2 sacrifices its more intimate atmosphere of Season 1 to become more political. As a result, the second season is more scattered in its execution and worldview. Rated: 7/10 Dec 16, 2024 Full Review Dustin Rowles Pajiba The second season of Taylor Sheridan’s Lioness improves on the first (not a high bar), but it’s still mostly a chaotic mix of action sequences interspersed with Sheridan’s signature moralizing. Dec 2, 2024 Full Review Andrew Murray The Upcoming Despite hitting many of the same beats expected from a show like this, Lioness is a bit of a tonal anomaly, switching between save-the-world thriller and upbeat family sitcom. Rated: 3/5 Nov 4, 2024 Full Review Matt Webb Mitovich TV Line Simply said, the Zoe Saldaña-led spy thriller’s sophomore run is fantastic, and stands as one of the year’s best TV shows.

Robert P. Season 1 was better. Season 2 is ok, but the plot is all over the place. Saldana’s character and the work/family tension of s1 is less developed here, and she’s over the top with the shouting. There’s a relationship that is forced and out of place. First season was much more raw and focused. Still, a decent continuation with good action and some strong moments. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 09/12/25 Full Review C H Jumped the shark. Very attractive women that are really tough that cry a lot. Completely ridiculous. Oh, and let's not forget, they are exploring lesbians. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 09/08/25 Full Review Addison S Well established plot line. Holds true to the core values of the show. Good character development throughout all episodes. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 08/12/25 Full Review Stevie Y Lioness Season 2 pulled me in right from the start and never let go. Zoe and Nicole were fantastic, bringing depth and nuance to their characters. The pacing was spot-on. It was exciting and engaging without dragging things out like so many shows do these days. Great action, strong character development, and a story that kept me invested the whole way through. Some may think the dialogue/writing is cheesy, but I really enjoyed the concept and looking forward to the next season. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/11/25 Full Review DJ F I enjoyed this season more than the first. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/19/25 Full Review Mark F I preferred season 1, I can't remember Zoe Saldana shouting at people hysterically in that one, she does it a lot here. There's also an over use of the F word, during some conversations between the soldiers it's uttered in every sentence. Moreover the plot of this one is a bit weak. The storyline fizzles out and then gets wrapped up in a way that seems too easy and doesn't make a lot of sense. Leaving the final action packed episode like an aside to the story up to that point. The action is good though and makes up for it, as does the decent cast. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 06/14/25 Full Review Read all reviews
