Saturday night, Sharon and I watched the last two episodes of season two of Big Little Lies. The series is based on the novel of the same name by Liane Moriarty. We finished watching season one in late June. Season two premiered on HBO on June 9, 2019.
Big Little Lies stars Reese Witherspoon, Nicole Kidman, Shailene Woodley, Laura Dern, and Zoë Kravitz. Alexander Skarsgård, Adam Scott, James Tupper, and Jeffrey Nordling feature in supporting roles. Meryl Streep joined the main cast for the second season.
Season two picks up where season one left off. It explores the repercussions of the death at the end of season one to the Monterey Five. The plot includes a couple of twists that I didn't see coming.
I enjoyed season two; I recommend it. Meryl Streep's performance is particularly amazing. I am sure that she will probably win an Emmy...

Big Littles Lies - Season One
Sunday night, Sharon and I finished watching season one of Big Little Lies. The series is based on the novel of the same name by Liane Moriarty. Season one premiered on HBO on February 19, 2017.
Big Little Lies stars Reese Witherspoon, Nicole Kidman and Shailene Woodley. It tells the story of three emotionally troubled women in Monterey, California, who become embroiled in a murder investigation. Laura Dern, Zoë Kravitz and Adam Scott play supporting roles. In one of those odd coincidences, I just listened to a Bill Simmon's podcast with Adam Scott.
Critically acclaimed, the series received 16 Emmy Award nominations and won eight, including Outstanding Limited Series and acting awards for Kidman, Alexander Skarsgård, and Dern. The trio also won Golden Globe Awards. The show won a Golden Globe Award for Best Miniseries or Television Film.
Although they played fast and loose with geography, I enjoyed the scenery. Much of the series was filmed on location on the Monterey Peninsula and Big Sur. Several scenes were shot in Pacific Grove and Carmel Highlands. Two of the houses that they used have to be Malibu, rather than Northern California.
I enjoyed the series and recommend it. I guessed where the plot was going towards the end of episode three.
