What I’m Watching: Hunters

Hunters: Season 2, Episode 2 “Buenos Aires” (B+)

That opening scene was quite traumatic for the young children who witnessed the murder of their father by their beloved governess, but Harriet has never been too concerned about softening her kills. It appears that she’s also involved in some questionable behavior, given that she seems to be in league with the masked men who subdued each of the hunters during their big operation to get Klaus. While that revelation will have to be unspooled in the next episode, it was fun to see the team reunited again, with Millie doing the talking since Jonah has apparently angered everyone enough so that they don’t want to speak to him again. He also left behind a clue to his real identity that may put his cover in jeopardy if his fiancée is eager to find him. I love that Lonnie was starring in a movie called “Eight Ways to Shabbat” where he played a hitman who has to kill eight people before sundown. I’m never fond of seeing Travis, and at least he’s now made it away from poor innocent people in civilization down to Argentina, where he laughed at Joe being the one to welcome him in to the compound and then fulfilled whatever fantasy Eva was acting out with him. I’m seeing more of a purpose of having Meyer around this season, and I’m curious if each episode will feature his recruitment of a different member of the team to provide some helpful backstory before the show signs off.
