Five teens and a search for gold, an obsessive father and brother; A recipe for disaster. Which was mixed into the perfect Season One. The second season doesn’t disappoint.

In Season Two of Netflix’s Outer Banks: John B (Chase Stokes), JJ (Rudy Pankow), Pope (Johnathan Daviss), Kie (Madison Bailey) and the famous Sarah Cameron (Madelyn Cline)Β  are now separated, oceans apart. In Season One we were left with John B and Sarah finding refuge on a ship that is going to Nassau, exactly where they wanted to go.

Their luck stopped shortly after a crew member found a β€œwanted” poster of John B, his face plastered on murder he didn’t commit.

On top of that, there is 400 million dollars in gold, still just out of their grasp. Sarah Cameron’s family is exceptionally wealthy and it seems she and her little sister Wheezie ( Julia Antonelli) are the only sane ones.

Their brother, Rafe (Drew Starkey), is out of control trying to please his father, Ward (Charles Esten). They go to crazy measures to capture that gold.

A fan favorite, JJ, is always cooking up ideas. They might not always be sturdy or thought through, but they seem to work out. With new villains and old ones, Season Two is action-packed.

Shannon Burke, Jonas Pate and Josh Pate, first thought of Outer Banks three years ago.

The show first streamed on Netflix April 2020 and it stayed number one for a long time, it was deemed a pandemic favorite. Season two dropped July 30 2021 and it stayed the top show watched for weeks.

The success of the show has made the actors household names.

Madelyn ClineΒ has wrapped filming ‘Knives Out 2 set to release in 2022.

During filming of Season One, the actors had to quarantine themselves with each other as they worked on the show.

This made the cast unbelievably close, and now we always see them posting videos on Instagram and TikTok. The fans absolutely love the friendship and are enjoying the new content from the cast’s lives as the new season dropped.

Part of the appeal is the cast often posts videos of each other sleeping, shooting a scene or just hanging out together outside of work.

This season had great scenes with the amazing city of Charleston.

The season also explored each character’s personalities, With the first season being very John B focused, Season 2 proved to be Pope’s season, with the last few episodes being heavily focused on his family history and how it all ties together.

Things went high and low with each episode. My emotions didn’t know how to handle every scene that came.

That is what really kept me on my toes, the acting. It was phenomenal. Each actor knew how to tap into their character and give such fleshed out scenes.

I, as well as 500 million others, couldn’t get enough of the show and many say they watched it all in one sitting.

We all want Season 3. And it seems like we are getting it. Netflix has not confirmed a renewal but with the show being the number one show in the world for weeks, We are assured there will be a Season 3.

The producers have even said they see the show having four to five seasons. The fans and I surely can not wait to see what’s in store.
