I am so excited! One of my favorite shows on Netflix is returning for its second season! “Why should I be watching,” you might ask. Well let me give you 5 reasons why you need this show to add to your Netflix’s list.
- PACIFIC ISLANDER REPRESENTATION
The main character, Luciane Buchanan who plays Rose Larkin on the show is New Zealand born but Tongan by blood. Mālō e lelei 👋 Not being biased, but she is a marvelous actress. She may be one of the first Pacific Islanders to star and be a lead in a mainstream Netflix series.

- LOVE LORE
Who does not love a good romance in a show. Rose Larkin and Peter Sutherland finished season 1 of The Night Agent as a couple whose characters had a slow burn throughout the whole season. Going from enemies-ish, or pretending to be irritated to the other person to obviously becoming lovers. Who doesn’t love a good trope? Season 2 we hope to see the couple further and deepen their relationship as they leave season 1 having to be long-distance. It may be the lover girl in me, but who doesn’t love a good, bada** couple who have good chemistry and banter.

- A BIT OF EVERYTHING
Besides romance, the show has a little bit of everything. First off, it is a conspiracy thriller created by Shawn Ryan.The show went on to break records as Netflix’s most watched series of 2023. It has a military, political theme and has quite a bit of action. You’re on your toes throughout the show, completely on edge of mystery and thriller as the show leads you to uncover a developing plot throughout the season. The first season had me intrigued until the very end, with every episode leaving you on a cliff hanger. With that, I can only expect to receive the same thing in the second season. If anything, I’m hoping for a bit more action and plots.

- AN EASY BINGE
Like I said it has a bit of every genre, and with every episode leaving you on a cliffhanger, it is very easy to binge. In a day you would have gone from episode one to episode 10 – that’s if you’re not doing anything. Every episode is a little short of an hour, which yes, it may seem like a long time, but when you’re caught up in the plot lines, you’d want to finish the show as soon as possible.

- PASS TIME
This will be the show you put on either to pass time or to escape from reality. I don’t want to condone an unhealthy relationship with streaming platforms, but if there is a show I would highly recommend to kick off your 2025 it would be to watch The Night Agent Season 2 (make sure you watch season 1 to catch up before the release).

I don’t want to spoil the show which is why I didn’t go TOO in-depth, but if I gave you enough to wonder and ponder about this show, then I did my job. The Night Agent Season 2 is set to release when the clock strikes 12 at midnight on January 23, 2025.
