The second season of Amazon Prime Video’s anthology series Them – The Scare has received high praise from critics and audiences alike, with a 100% score on Rotten Tomatoes from critics and a 97% score from audiences. This is a significant improvement from the first season, which was not well-received and had a lower rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
Originally set in 1953, the second season of Them is now set in 1993 and follows an LAPD detective who investigates a murder with supernatural elements that reach into her own family. The show shares a lead actress with the first season, Deborah Ayorinde, but has a different setting and storyline.
The success of the second season of Them – The Scare has propelled it to the number two spot on Amazon Prime Video, behind only the highly anticipated Fallout video game adaptation. This is a significant achievement for a show that had a lukewarm reception in its first season and has now garnered critical acclaim and a strong audience following.
With the success of the second season, Amazon Prime Video has the potential to establish Them as a long-running anthology series, similar to American Horror Story. The creator of the series, Little Marvin, has helmed this transformation, along with a talented team of writers and directors including Ti West, known for films like Pearl and X.
The entire season of Them – The Scare has been released as a binge-watch, with eight episodes ranging in length from 30 to 45 minutes. Viewers are encouraged to check out the show and see if it lives up to the hype and positive reviews that have made it a standout success on Amazon Prime Video.
Fans and newcomers can also follow the creator of the series on social media platforms like Twitter, Threads, YouTube, and Instagram, as well as explore other works like the Herokiller series and The Earthborn Trilogy. The second season of Them – The Scare promises an engaging and thrilling viewing experience that has captivated audiences and critics alike.
