Kit Harington and Minnie Driver star in our highest-rated episodes of Modern Love season 2
. It never came close to the greatness of those films, but it clearly came from the same creative mind.
Carney once again returns for season 2, and his episodes range from solidly good to solidly wonderful, but something went very, very wrong with most of the rest of the season. Though there are three episodes that are well worth watching here, the bad episodes drag the season down so much, and the mid-range ones are so frustrating in how close they come to being worthwhile, that I can't in good conscience give the season as a whole more than those two stars.
Like the first season, we kick things off with a bang with probably the best of the current batch of episodes. Minnie Driver stars as a happily remarried woman whose only connection to her dead husband is an old sports car that keeps on breaking down on her and may, finally, need to be put out to pasture.
This is a season of television that is, in short, significantly less than the sum of its parts that boasts some excellent episodes and a weighted average that should put it toe to toe with the better anthology shows out there, but its unfortunate sequencing and with so many episodes falling short of their potential, it ends up looking worse than it actually is.
