Narcos (Netflix) — The first season of Narcos gave us some incredible drama — at times, a bit too much of it. While season one packed a lot of storytelling into ten episodes, season two is shrinking the story back down, focusing on Pablo Escobar during his final days, on the run after escaping from prison. With the law and his rivals hunting him, expect the action this season to pick up, along with the acting and the plot. If season one of Narcos was good, season two has found a way to become great.
