Humans - Season 2
The third season received critical acclaim. On Rotten Tomatoes, the season has a score of 100%, based on 13 reviews, with an average rating of 6.0/10. The site's critical consensus reads, "Humans gains new sociopolitical dimensions in its third season, mining deeper insight from its sci-fi premise without diluting the potency of its well-drawn characters."[48]
The second season of Humans picks up where the first ended, but new viewers who want to jump in now can do so with only a rudimentary understanding of the first season: Laura (Katherine Parkinson) and Joe (Tom Goodman-Hill) Hawkins, and their teen kids Mattie (Lucy Carless), Toby (Theo Stevenson) and young Sophie (Pixie Davies), had their lives upended last season by the arrival of Anita (Gemma Chan), the synth Joe bought to help out with the housework.
The cast here is excellent, with Chan continuing her breakout performance last season with yet another composed and thoughtful examination of what it is to feel connected (or not) and how to modulate new emotions. Parkinson and Goodman-Hill (along with William Hurt last season) were the more established actors, but Humans unveiled a number of wonderful performances (in particular, the series has managed to find three kids in Carless, Stevenson and Davies who nail their characters and avoid being cloying). Season two sees the addition of Carrie-Anne Moss as Dr. Athena Morrow as a leading AI scientist from the U.S. and Marshall Allman as the Silicon Valley tech billionaire funding her research, with both of their motives in question.
Perhaps the most integral storyline to the first season of AMC's Humans is the Hawkins family's reaction to their synth, Gemma Chan's Mia, burgeoning open consciousness. For the two daughters of the household, her increasingly odd behavior was both fascinating and endearing, while matriarch Laura (Katherine Parkinson) became immediately suspicious and worried. The men of the house, of course, only had the extents of Mia's ability to give sexual pleasure on their mind, at least for the first week or two. After that, the state of Mia's mind and emotions became of particular interest to the family for several reasons, including Laura's distrust and jealousy of the synth in her home.
We've all seen the videos of robots serving dinner, diagnosing diseases, dueling expertly with swords, and even creating music, but the most fascinating thing about the dawn of artificial intelligence is how they will engage with us intimately. And that is what is still at the heart of Humans as its second season gears up, facing up to the bizarre and endlessly intriguing intricacies of a world where synths - androids, essentially - are beginning to seek rights like flesh-and-blood people. As the series opens, Emily Berrington's Niska, a former prostitute synth, is attempting to get a handle on being liberated and a wanted fugitive in Berlin.
The fact that Humans is, for instance, interested in how an android would go about being tried in a court of law suggests philosophical and societal ambitions that are absent in HBO's show, which has a much larger audience than Humans. It's fun to watch androids and humans rape, murder, and violate each other while a piss-poor player-piano cover of Radiohead goes off in the background but for all the excessive talk in Westworld, it has nothing even remotely insightful to say about man or modern technology. Humans never turns away from violence or mistreatment but neither does it assume that the world pivots on such actions. Humans may lack the visual pizazz or expressive symbolism to bring its bigger ideas into greater relief, but it's becalmed yet thoughtful aesthetic actually works perfectly in tune with its subtext. Underneath the clean labs, modern homes, and cold, verdant landscapes where Mia, Morrow, Leo, and Max do their work is an assured wisdom and a riot of radical concepts about behavior and desire, a sprawling petri dish teeming with actions and thoughts that feel at once convincing and unreal.

The Swedish science fictions series Äkta människor has recently been broadcast in Australia and France. Audience response in both countries has been positive and eager fans are clamouring for information about the currently in production second season whilst we in the UK have yet to get confirmation on when, or indeed if, we will get to see what may quite possibly be the best Science Fiction series to air on TV within the last ten to fifteen years.
New Delhi: The second season of the medical thriller 'Human', starring Shefali Shah and Kirti Kulhari, will soon release. On Saturday, the web series marked the completion of its first season, and series director Vipul Shah revealed the theme for the upcoming season.
As he continued, the filmmaker revealed the origins of the second season and said, "I think season 2 will be about a new scam in the world of medicine. It will again be very factual, it will be research-based but the most important thing is that we need to have a very very good script. We are working on something and as and when it is ready, we will evaluate if it has become better than Human One or not. We would like to beat Human One with Human Two and bring something very very new, eye-opening and shocking for audiences."googletag.cmd.push(function() googletag.display("div-gpt-ad-6601185-5"); );
Gemma Chan returns as Mia, the synth formerly owned by the Hawkins family, in season two, which also introduces Sonya Cassidy as the synth Hester and Carrie-Anne Moss as a robotics scientist. Rotten Tomatoes spoke with Chan and Moss in person and with Cassidy by phone about the second season of Humans. Here are 11 things they revealed about the new synths and scientists in season two.
Just like season 1, season 2 might consist of a panel of scientific experts and also feature 100 random volunteers, including stay-at-home Moms, authorities, students, comedians, teachers, artists, and even some famous faces.
In season 1, we follow the 100 participants as they partake in various social, behavioral, and scientific experiments to find answers to multiple questions regarding humanity.

Throughout the season, we witness memory tests, the battle of the sexes, ALS bucket challenge, group tasks, word quiz, myth-busting session, sensory deprivation trials, pain vs. pleasure test, a practice to understand behavior through accents, proper toilet etiquettes and more. 041b061a72
