Sizzlin' Summer Streaming 24' - Dr Death - Season Two

Dr. Death is back. After the first season arrived on my birthday back on 2021, we have waited around 18 months for the second series. Focusing on Paolo Macchiarini.

I will never forget the first series as (it was my birthday) I also had my first COVID vaccine. My fever went sky high. I got halfway through an episode then boom!

So Peacock finally have a series in its second season that has a bit of hype behind it. After a few flops, maybe the streamer finally has a show to brag about. That said Twisted Metal no doubt will also get a bit of hype upon it's return when the second season lands.

So what is Dr Death season two all about? It is the story of Swiss-Italian surgeon and medical researcher Paolo Macchiarini convicted after experimenting on his patients.

Édgar Ramírez plays Paolo Macchiarini, while former Candy singer, Mandy Moore (This is Us) plays Benita Alexander.

Also joining the second seasons new cast, Rita Volk, Luke Kirby, Judy Reyes (Claws and Devious Maids), Jack Davenport, Annika Boras, and Sandra Andreis.

Ramírez is exceptional as the evil doctor. Not only does he play Mandy Moore's Benita for a love fool, what he does to his patients is pure evil.

This was way more frightening than the OG first run.

I would really not be surprised if a third version of the Dr Death series would be in the works. This was also a winner back home in Australia for Stan. Not only did Stand have the fourth run of Bump to keep them going over the holidays, this landed before Christmas. Now Stan has the second season of The Tourist travelling to Ireland, along with Prosper incoming this month.

Either way, well done Stan. A great summer of programming thus far. Dr Death season two is very good!
