How Many Episodes In Season 2 Discovery Of Witches

Okay, let's talk A Discovery of Witches Season 2. Specifically, how many episodes it had. Ready for some serious discussion?

The Great Episode Count Debate

Ten. There were ten episodes. Officially, without a shadow of a doubt, a perfect 10.

But did it feel like ten? That's where things get interesting. It flew by too fast, didn’t it?

I mean, time-traveling shenanigans, royal intrigue, and Matthew Goode looking incredibly handsome. It's a lot to pack into one season!

My Unpopular Opinion (Brace Yourselves!)

Here's my controversial take: Season 2 of A Discovery of Witches needed more episodes. Yep, I said it.

I know, I know. Ten episodes is standard these days. Streaming services have conditioned us.

But consider this: we're dealing with a dense and complex storyline. Time travel!

And so much happens in those episodes. Each one could have been stretched out to give us more time to bask in the atmosphere. To see more of 16th Century London.

Think about all the delightful little details we could have gotten! More historical context. More interaction with the characters. More of Matthew and Diana's adorable courtship!

Plus, let's be real, we all wanted more of Matthew Clairmont. And that’s not just because of the brooding, centuries-old vampire thing.

He's a complicated character, and exploring those complexities takes time. And more episodes would give him that time.

Room for Growth (and More Magic!)

More episodes could have also allowed for a slower, more deliberate pace. Maybe a deeper dive into Diana's magical abilities.

Imagine more detailed scenes of her learning and mastering her powers. I wouldn’t say no to it!

Let’s not forget the other fantastic characters. They all deserved more screentime.

The writers could have fleshed out their storylines. Explored their motivations. And given us more reasons to love (or hate) them.

Honestly, wouldn't it be grand to see the characters enjoy their time together in the past. Imagine more quiet moments of banter and camaraderie! Or at least some downtime from running away from the Congregation.

The Final Verdict

So, while A Discovery of Witches Season 2 was undeniably fantastic, could it have been even better with a few extra episodes? Absolutely!

Look, I will defend the original ten to the end, but my heart cries out. For extra long episodes or even just a few more!

I'm not saying it was bad. It was far from it. I was simply left wanting more. Is that such a crime?

Ultimately, A Discovery of Witches proves my point. Quality storytelling always leaves us wanting more.

So, while ten episodes will have to do, I'll always secretly wish for twelve. Or thirteen. Or maybe even a full twenty-two episode season. (Okay, maybe I'm getting greedy!).

I'd watch all of them! Wouldn’t you?

What do you think? Am I crazy for wanting more, or do you secretly agree?

I can hear someone agreeing… Can’t you?

"Give the people what they want! More episodes!" - Someone, probably.

Anyway, let’s all rewatch season 2 again now!
