Summary[]

We don’t like to endlessly build mystery; we like to settle our debts by the end of the season. We want to feel like the show is rocketing ahead. The first season was a journey inward; this is a journey outward. It’s a search for what else is in the park, and what else is beyond the park

–Jonathan Nolan

Casey Bloys, President of HBO's programming, said that season 2 was "exciting, mysterious and as fun as season 1. And completely original, as well."[1]

Music[]

The soundtrack is composed by Ramin Djawadi. (See also: Season 2 Music)

Well, the flies were always the canary in the coal mine of where the story was going, because they were the one not-programmed creature in the park. So that tiny little slap that Dolores did at the beginning of the season was a harbinger of things to come. Now, in Season 2, now that the gloves are off, we’re gonna see a lot of flies — and they’re not necessarily gonna be actual flies.

Lisa Joy[14]

  • Some of Season 2, "before the mayhem starts",[15] was spent looking at how the experience would feel for a contemporary guest going into the park.
  • At PaleyFest 2017, Entertainment Weekly reported:
Last we saw everyone, the hosts had risen up to attack the humans. But I'm not so sure we're actually going to see the full slaughter — at least not right away. "You're definitely going to see the aftermath and the effects of what happened," Lisa Joy tells me, to which Jonathan Nolan adds: "We are definitely not picking up right where we left off."[16]

–From Entertainment Weekly

  • Multiple new parks were introduced in the second season: The Raj, a colonial-Indian themed park under the control of the British Crown; and Shōgunworld, a Delos park themed around the Edo period in Japan, c. 1603 to 1868.
