'Space Force' Season 2: Here's What the Critics Are Saying About the Netflix Comedy
An Improved Season
The Hollywood Reporter noted that the second season was a marked improvement from the first. "The extraneous satire and off-base subplots have been jettisoned in favor of a greater focus on the central cast of characters, which in turn has allowed Space Force to reveal itself as the more streamlined and sincere workplace comedy it always seemed to have the potential to become," critic Angie Han wrote.

Streamlining
PopCulture.com's Tania Hussain also noted that the second season was a vast improvement. "In many ways, Space Force Season 2 feels like a new show with familiar faces as it reinvents itself into a solid and well-rounded comedy while correcting the series' initial direction with a dose of easy, digestible humor," she wrote.
prevnextTune into #SpaceForce Season 2 on @Netflix this weekend! Absolutely LOVED this one and am so happy the show has revitalized itself for a charming workplace comedy all its own with some LOL writing and an out-of-this-world cast. Full review @PopCulture: https://t.co/E0zq8lv2QU

Finding Its Footing
"From the moment Space Force Season 2 begins, it feels like an entirely different show, as if an entire cloud has been lifted and the show was allowed to expand out of a box it was forced into," wrote our sister site, ComicBook.com, praising the show's change of pace.
#SpaceForce Season 2 is a riot. It capitalizes on everything good about Season 1, and just adds more. Steve Carrell takes comedy to another level, and I am just ALL IN. Watch it ASAP, you won't want to miss. I love it love it love it. Wow. Series arrives Friday on Netflix. pic.twitter.com/Yxxnt4tnMs

prevnextI’ve seen #SpaceForce S2, and it is a #hoot. I enjoyed the first season, yet this still feels like a whole new show.
The jokes land much better as the entire cast shines. Carell’s Naird is a big improvement. Malkovich is a riot, again.

Not Quite Perfect
"They made some changes, including a shift from the first season's more cinematic style to something more conventional, and a greater emphasis on the comedy," wrote Liz Shannon Miller for Consequence. "Did that make things better? The answer is a pretty confident yes, though that doesn't mean there aren't some issues with these seven episodes."
The second season of Netflix's ‘Space Force’ ends up being more of same, which isn’t necessarily a bad thing #SpaceForcehttps://t.co/jK6s2Io5qQ
