It’s another blissful, perfectly paced 10 episodes that hit the hardest when you least expect them to, the kind of television that insists upon the intelligence of its viewer, rather than itself.
The Big Door Prize works because it allows us to spend time with a group of appealing characters that have become a “found family” as they try to figure out just what they want to get out of their lives. That vibe continues in Season 2.
By mostly maintaining that balance the second time around, the series remains a gem in an oversaturated comedy television landscape. And with another mind-bending final twist in the finale, it makes a strong case for another season if Apple TV+ and the viewers are open to it.
Though it reaches for the deep and meaningful, this oddly moreish soap opera (which leaves the door hanging open for a third run) too often settles for fortune-cookie philosophy.
While season two of The Big Door Prize represents a significant improvement, it’s still short of justifying an Apple TV+ subscription while we wait for new seasons of Severance and For All Mankind. The overarching mystery of the Morpho not only moves slowly but the puzzle pieces we do get underwhelm.
