HARLEM Season 2 is a bright hue of comic relief and delivers the insightful banter we all need to release laughter from our souls. The boroughs of Harlem shine flawlessly through the unique and effervescent characters of Camille (Meagan Good), Tye (Jerrie Johnson), Quinn (Grace Byers), and Angie (Shoniqua Shandai) harmoniously. In addition, a plentiful appearance of cameos from some of our favorite 90’s television stars makes Harlem Season 2 a series to watch. Bevy Smith, an original and authentic Harlem woman, surpasses her reoccurring role as Auntie with an unmatched flair.
Viewers will be thoroughly entertained by the writing, production, and effortless interweaving of the plight, Black women face daily. Additionally, blending the struggles of operating with melanin skin, which is often dismissed or overlooked in society, helps to display some of the facets that ooze from Black Girl Magic, yet humbly embraced with love and undeniable humor.
One theme that caught my eye and offered a much-needed conversation is that relationships come in all shapes and sizes. Whether it’s an issue with a love language or familial ties, the women of Harlem will take you on an emotional roller coaster that will have you asking yourself, “When is the next ride or episode?”
This season viewers will have the opportunity to dive a little deeper into the family makeup and DNA each character resonates on screen. Therefore the a-ha reasoning as to why some characters are confident in poignant areas while others are weakened with despair unfolds.
And the idea that self-discovery should begin or end at a certain age resounds loudly for one particular belle of Harlem. But, of course, my favorite character, who is most definitely over the top and fun to watch, is Angie, portrayed by Shoniqua Shandai. Angie’s development through the series is a breath of fresh air, and I love it.
Overall, HARLEM will have you on the edge of your seat. But, hopefully, fans won’t have to wait too long for a much-needed Season 3. So watch the second season of HARLEM when it premieres February 3 on Prime Video, as viewers will embark upon an eight episodes journey, with two episodes premiering every week in more than 240 countries and territories worldwide.
