Deliciously mixing black humour, pathos, and family drama with its central tale of drugs, cancer, and chemistry, this second season – following the (occasional) ups and (frequent) downs of its unlikely drug manufacturing/dealing team, who continue to struggle to make crime pay – retains and builds upon the high standards set by its predecessor.
