Current Events > Season 2 of Sense8 comes out this week on Netflix

(+) Yeah! (+)

I wonder if they'll explain stuff and push the story forward this season

Trailer in case somebody wants to see it:

I'm hoping we get at least one orgy per episode.

More seriously, I hope it's not just like 12 episodes of setup. It was really cool when they finally did start seamlessly switching between the different skillsets to help get one person out of a situation.

I was half expecting the one dude to be high all the time, but he appears to not be as sedated in the trailer at least. I consider this to be a good thing

I expect this season to go all out. I loved the Christmas episode.

It figures Netflix finally starts releasing stuff after I cancel my subscription, after months of nothing. Anyway, does anyone feel like certain "sensates" are useless to the group? I mean what do the Indian girl and the Icelandic girl bring to the table other than having to be rescued?

The Indian girl works in a pharmaceutical company so she knows what medication they'd need to do something, how much, how to administer it, etc. I imagine she'll end up being the group's "healer."

Van Damme and Icelandic girl are pretty useless though, I agree. The girl moreso since Van Damme at least can fix up cars and jazz.

Kala is very intelligent, she's got medical skills and chemistry knowledge. We don't necessarily know what Riley's special thing is yet, but I'm guessing it's empathy and she acts as the mother of the group. She might even be the mother for the next group of sensates.

Terrible show

Of course.

the indian girl had an awesome moment in season one to show how her intelligence was an asset to the cluster.

she made a bomb out of house hold products in an instant to help wolfgang when he was about to be killed
---

they need to have more bisexual psychic orgies.
plus if they need to kill off a sensate at some point riley is the logical choice
she doesnt really bring any useful skills to the group but is lovable

so they can lose her and want revenge without losing any of the skills that would help pull it off.

What do you mean, she has the greatest power of them all: having the capacity to find supplies of Heroin

I hope they have a scene where what of the straight dudes wonders if they are bi now

Really enjoyed the first series, but IMO the Christmas episode got a little too preachy at points.

actually i believe the writers confirmed becoming a sensate changes everyones sexuality to bisexual to an extent because they feel the other members sex drives as well as their own.

That does sound like the kind of bullshit the Wachowskis would come up with, so I can believe it

I wouldn't call it bullshit. They're essentially just eight extensions of the same person now.

Can you give an example or two? I don't remember that happening

Sucks that the African guy's actor got replaced in that (and in future episodes), he was cool
---

gonna binge so hard
---

Hopefully it gets cancelled after this season.
---

The film in the countries they are set in which makes it unnecessarily expensive
So scenes with the Korean woman are filmed in Korea
Scenes with the Indian woman are filmed in India

This, although van Damme and Icelanding girls still have interesting stories despite being carried.
---

Van Damme has driving skills which cane in handY during a car chase
---

apparently the first van damme was really hard to work with so they fired him for diva like behavior
---

the show is at its best when the main 8 characters are interacting, or fighting, or having sex
when those three things arent happening the show is boring

Which is a shame, because he was a great character. That unending positivity and his "good day" speeches were my favorite parts of the season. I also really enjoyed his dynamic with the Korean girl.

it wasn't that he was hard to work with, i think he got uncomfortable about some of the stuff they were gonna film for season 2 and he said some transphobic/homophobic things.

guess i was wrong either way he was fired for his attitude.
they filmed some scenes at a gay pride parade last summer.

it had will kissing lito while grabbing his ass. then will kissing riley while lito kissed her neck
then will making out with wolfgang.

so this might be nomi at the pride parade and the other sensate experiencing it
---

there doesnt seem to be any camera filming when wolfgang and will kiss so i think the audience was just asking them to and they complied

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cd7H8lyn6L8


this however is being filmed

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RUoc3hrXCF8

and since i see litos boyfriend just off stage this may actually be lito at the pride parade

just three days

The asian girl's ass? I remember hers being shown when she was in the shower, don't remember what scene it was though

Shame that the best sensate spends 95% of the show in prison
---

Yeah the Van Damme original actor guy was pretty awesome, shame they let him go. I'm looking forward to season 2, hopefully it can actually do more into the plot with the Whisper guy, because he was pretty non-existent in season 1.

With that said, the Indian girl (stereo-typically) is good with medicine and in season 1 she made a fucking bomb using chemicals found in a kitchen so yeah she's pretty useful. Van damme guy is an excellent driver and knows his stuff about cars. Only the Icelandic chick is the one I can't find anything useful about her other than being my waifu.

Iceland girl's special powers are being a useless junkie and DJing

lito and wolfgang have the best interactions
they need to team up more often


i expect them to kill off a sensate eventually so show what thats like
i imagine the others actually feel the pain of their death
or maybe they just feel like they lost something that can never be replaced like losing a limb.

if they have to kill someone off its riley since she is the safe bet
she contributed nothing overly useful to helping the others evade evil government agents and has a tragic backstory that makes it all the more sad to see her die

Yeah I pretty much agree, the scene where Wolfgang helps Lito save that girl is one of the best scenes. Also the part where Lito helps Wolfgang when Wolf has a gun pointed at his head or whatever (might be misremembering)

Lito's actually pretty useful surprisingly, I love seeing him put his acting skills to use

Asian girl has equally cool interactions though imo, as does the cop (like the scene where the cop guy lets Wolf know that the guy he just shot is wearing a vest)
---

I'm curious, the Whisper used to be part of a sensate when he decided to start killing them off. So do any of the current sensates might have a similar power like the Whisper?

from what i understand when a member of another cluster makes eye contact with a sensate of a different cluster that sensate can now visit that entire cluster without actually being a part of it
whisper betrayed his cluster and is now using his power to hunt down and kill other sensates
so he just needs to find one cluster member to know the locations of all the sensates

I don't think that's true, only the cop guy has to be blindfolded/drugged at all times, the icelandic girl was the one hiding him, remember? If Whisper could see what any of the others see, Iceland girl would have given them both away

I think he has to make eye contact with them in-person as well (not just via seeing through the a sensate's eyes), because the Iceland girl made eye contact with Cop guy after Whisper made eye contact with him.
---

Yeah, I'm pretty sure you're mistaken about that, yusiko. If he could know an entire cluster just from one person, I feel like he wouldn't have had to individually hunt down Daryl Hannah's cluster. And Iceland girl can't see him when the cop does. I want to say Daryl Hannah's boyfriend said that Whisper will just torture the one person he does know until they reveal everyone else.
---

if im mistaken then why does the cop need to be drugged for the others safety?
---

Because if he finds the cop, he can torture the cop into giving up the others.

I don't think that's what he meant. I think he meant like why wouldn't a simple blindfold or something work.

I actually don't get why they don't just stick him in a room with some entertainment and stuff but whatever
---

The drugs just stop Whispers from constantly harassing and speaking to him. Conceivably he could just sit in a windowless room that has no info on the outside world and just try and ignore Whispers, but that would probably get old quick.

I'm FUCKING HYPED for tomorrow!
