'The Sinner': Five reasons why you should be watching season 2

Julian and Vera, along with several other characters, are making Season 2 much more intersting with its layers of backstories.
PUBLISHED AUG 4, 2018

After 'The Sinner' Season 1 was acclaimed by critics and became popular among viewers, Season 2 called for a whole new wave of madness when it comes to the characters of the show. The show might feel like a movie that has been broken down to create an anthology series. However, the very essence of the show lies in its question "whydunnit" as opposed to "whodunnit." 

While Season 1 made the viewers realize that a criminal mind might be the result of a lifelong case of abuse and torment, Season 2 has opened up space for more speculation into the mind of a criminal as young as an 11-year-old boy. Cora Tannetti won the viewer's heart through her subtle denial of innocence and consistent pursuit of a memory, but Julian is a different case altogether. After he killed his parents in cold blood, Julian is neither in denial of his crime nor would he deny himself as innocent. The other characters surrounding Julian are just as mysterious.
