Matt Roush

Matt Roush says...

Thrilling, haunting, surprising, as entertaining as it is original, TV’s most mind-teasing sci-fi drama wraps its second season with a game-changing finale (directed by executive producer Ben Stiller) that puts the troubling existential duality of Lumon Industries’ “innies” and “outies” into sharp, emotional focus. Mark S. (Adam Scott) is oh so close to completing the Cold Harbor project—and yes, there will be answers—but what then? Can “outie” Mark’s imprisoned wife Gemma (Dichen Lachman) be saved? What happens to Helly (Britt Lower) and the other “innies” if Lumon goes down? It all builds to a chaotic cliffhanger, and let’s hope it doesn’t take another three years for a just-announced third season to arrive.
