River Season 2

It’s a pleasure when a high-quality TV detective is not just causing interest of the viewer but truly excites the senses and makes feel nervous. If the creators managed to achieve this effect, it means that such a project clearly deserves attention. As, for example, the British TV series River, which has been coming out on BBC One channel in America, and immediately after it on Netflix channel since 2015. This mini-series has been able to catch the fancy of the audience, and the viewers are increasingly turning to the producers of the project with a single question: when will River series 2 begin? Release date of the following new episode is, however, shrouded in mystery, and now it’s impossible to speak about the terms of the coming of the next season air date. The renewed show is likely to be presented when all the authors consider the decision regarding the next season start will be reasonable.

Plot Review and Cast

It’s hard to call this series standard, as its plot and chronology of developments demonstrate an excellent authors’ idea and takes the audience into a serious psychological drama, the protagonist of which is a DI John River (played by a brilliant Swedish actor Stellan Skarsgård). This person will face a variety of excitements and emotions, overcome the grief and sufferings to find a way to live. Detective investigations are not the main idea of the program, all the flavor of River is revealed rather through intrigues and clashes of the story characters.
