Rupert Campbell-Black... the scandalous web you weave. His reputation is declining in front of his very eyes in Rivals season 2 — and that means the show's trademark sex gives way to outright despair.

Pros

  • +Adaptation continues to honor Jilly Cooper in the best way
  • +Remarkably strong ensemble cast
  • +Starts to weave Polo's storyline into the plot
  • +More satisfying screen time for Monica
  • +The Lizzie-Freddie romance is progressing deliciously
  • +I've never wanted to slap David Tennant more (complimentary)

Cons

  • -Hulu/Disney has been stingy and only given us three episodes
  • -Things don't feel quite as sexy this time, if that's your vibe
  • -Taggie is more infuriating than ever
