Scorpion: Season 2

This is such a great show! It can be a little campy at times but it also is a good portrayal of life when you're highly intelligent. The interaction between the actors is great! I love Sylvester the best and little Ralph, but all of them make up a great ensemble cast. Watch the first season, then this one. You won't be disappointed!

Good series to watch

Great series. Such a great mixture of funny, sad, action. and a touch of romance. This season was as good as the first season if not better. Only thing I felt perhaps unnecessary was the inclusion of Tim. Still I am not a script writer and I am sure that they have their reasons. But seriously guys Walter and Page need to be together!!

We've fallen in love with this series which is sort of a McGyver-ish show with multiple McGyvers on the team. A couple of the main characters wear on my patience at times. Particularly in Season 2, the far-fetched 'science' & action scenes should come with a disclaimer in case some idiot should try any of these stunts themselves (like running around in sub-zero temps without gloves, unzipped jackets etc). But overall, the shows are entertaining & a great alternative to the current group of horror, reality, thug and drama shows.

The nerds came back for a second season and, in the main, that was a very good thing. The episodes based around Megan O'Brien's hospitalization and death, for example, demonstrated how great writing combined with nuanced acting can result in excellent programming. The intense frustration that Walter O'Brien feels when he finally realizes that despite his genius IQ he cannot save his sister's life came through loud and clear as did her equally intense desire to let nature run its course. On the other hand, some of the situations Team Scorpion found itself in were... well, let's just say they stretched the limits of credibility to the breaking point. I realize that this series is the first cousin to science fiction but, still, its episodes need to have at least one foot on the ground at all times. In this season that was not always the case as the team continued to come up with miraculous escapes from impossible situations. That's not unexpected - in fact the ability to do just that is the crux of the whole show - but this season the writers did not always give O'Brien and his crew enough time to reasonably do so. I get that geniuses think faster than most of us, but it still takes some time to process data. More than that, it takes time to drive to and from various locations to find the materials and equipment needed to pull off the miracle and then - under high pressure - do what needs to be done without dropping a screwdriver or hitting the wrong key on a laptop. Despite that flaw, this was a good season for the team. As viewers we learned more about each character - a plus - and we got to see more of Paige's young son Ralph. In the first season it was taken for granted that he's a genius but we didn't get to see him do much more than be a normal kid. In this season he has a more featured role; an opportunity to demonstrate just how bright he really is. That, in my opinion, is another big plus. So, based on the data, my conclusion is that Season 2 rates a solid 4 stars.

Excellent

Like have product and price

A tepid 3 for at least first 4 episodes. More touchy-feels, more disjointed, less interesting
