’13 Reasons Why’ Season 2 bites off way more than it can chew

TwitterFacebook

13 Reasons Why is not a show that shies away from controversial subjects. Even the mixed responses to Season 1 – from television critics to mental health experts to scientific research – undeniably created conversation. Season 2 is so chock-full of sensitive, buzzy subjects that it seems the showrunners took it upon themselves to address every social issue possible – and in the process, missed the mark on most of them.

Season 2 finds Hannah’s (Katherine Langford) peers at Liberty High School trying to move past her death by suicide, and the tapes she left behind addressing a dozen of them and one teacher. The problem is that the tapes are apparently only the tip of the iceberg, and Season 2 reveals huge chapters of Hannah’s life – all involving the people on the tapes – that were never even hinted at previously. Meanwhile, the Bakers (Kate Walsh and Brian D’arcy James) are embroiled in a nasty law suit against the school district that calls many of the students to testify; Season 1 was tapes, and Season 2 is testimony.

In the 13 Reasons Why Season 2 trailer, Hannah Baker’s (Katherine Langford) story is far from finished.

While Season 1 was dominated by the immediacy of grief following Hannah’s death, Season 2 leans fully into a tone of mystery and conspiracy. Who is stalking the people from the tapes Hannah left behind? What do they know – and what do they have wrong? 

Though the trailer focuses primarily on Clay (Dylan Minnette), we see all the key characters from Season 1 return. Most notably, Jessica (Alisha Boe) is visibly coping with the realization that she was sexually assaulted before Hannah’s death, and judging by what she says to Clay, she’s still not ready to face it.
