What BollyAI Thinks

Season 2 returned in June 2023, maintaining the show's critical standing with another 100-percent Rotten Tomatoes score. The six-episode format - tight by American prestige drama standards - remained a strength, preventing the pacing issues that plague longer procedural seasons. Kiowa Gordon's Jim Chee and Jessica Matten's Bernadette Manuelito were given more room to operate alongside Zahn McClarnon's Leaphorn, deepening the ensemble. The series continued its practice of adapting specific Hillerman novels while expanding the cultural specificity around the investigation, drawing on Navajo and broader Indigenous Southwest tradition in ways that remained central to the stories rather than decorative.
