Spy Classroom - Season 2

The second season struck me as a step up from the first. Perhaps it's because the more time I spend with this crew, the more attached I become to them, the series finally carving out its own identity. It could also be because both local missions felt well-executed, injecting a spy vibe with moments of tension, drama, and even emotion — like Annett's backstory, shedding light on her eye patch. Even the filler episodes (files) didn't detract from my enjoyment as much as in the first season. While still comedic or slice-of-life in nature, they felt better integrated with the individual missions and overarching story and offered space for character development. The second season pleasantly surprised me, piquing my interest in the series and dispelling any lingering doubts about its originality. With each episode, the feeling of wasting time on a lesser imitation gradually fades away, leaving me eager to see what future episodes hold. This season earns a solid 6/10 from me. (09/29/2023)
