Whatever else is competing for your attention this week, His Dark Materials Season 2 is worth clearing space for. The world-building is meticulous, but it is the characters who carry His Dark Materials Season 2 through its more ambitious moments. Series 2 begins after Lord Asriel has opened a bridge to a new world, and, distraught over the death of her best friend, Lyra follows Asriel into the unknown. In a strange and mysterious abandoned city she meets Will, a boy from our world who is also running from a troubled past. Mrs. Dafne Keen and Amir Wilson lead a cast that brings real weight to the material. It was aired in 2020. The world-building is meticulous enough to sustain multiple rewatches, with details early on that only make sense later. The consistency throughout is what elevates it — not every moment is the best, but none of them are a reason to stop watching.

Viewers burned by ambitious sci-fi that could not sustain its premise should give His Dark Materials Season 2 a chance. It rewards viewers regardless of what else is in their watch history. Best experienced as a single, sustained watch if your schedule allows. Dafne Keen grounds the bigger ideas in something human. Once you are in, you will want to talk about it.
