Overseen by Showrunner Michael Jonathan Smith, The Second Season of ‘Twisted Metal’ Smartly Doubles Down on the Crazed Style and Tone that Made the first work.
This is never going to be shakespeare, but the writing team defted juggles over-the-to-top violence and a less more emotional twists. The introduction of a new group of racers in a tournament storyline is also handled well.
Plus, if you we were hoping that directorial side of things was still as visually inventive and entertaining: Good News!

Mackie and Beatriz Continue to Make a Complementary, Their Banter and Relationship Issues related in a world gone mad.
And yes, while sweeet tooth is still a larger one-note character, that note is an amusing one.
Of the new recruits, Saylor Bell Curda Makes The Most IMPACT as Mayhem, A Young Woman Who Crashes Into Our Heroes’ Lives and serves to brings some extra tension.
Anthony carriganMeanwhile, is fun as loopy guru caalypso, who throws the tournament on the promise of granting the winner’s big wish.
Neve Campbell‘s raven has been written out Patty guggenheim (Who Stole Scenes as Madisynn in ‘She Hulk: Attorney at Law’) Works superbly to replace her.
Final Thoughts

The second lap for ‘twisted metal’ is just as much fun as the first, and fans can be ressured that the flare for destruction tempered by humanity is just as presented.
In a world where video game adaptations are on an upswing, this deserves to score more attention, even if it’ll Never Reach the Depths of, Say, Say, ‘The last of us’ (Not that it aims to).
“The tournament is here. Game on.”
