Critics Consensus

The Sandman's second season occasionally meanders like a half-remembered dream, but Tom Sturridge's ethereal performance continues to give this fantasy heft.

As visually gorgeous and heartfelt as it can be, The Sandman does push the limits of what even I can tolerate.

It’s frustrating how abridged this all is, how Morpheus got ten episodes of moping and Daniel got only one to self-actualize...

El nacional

The final season of 'The Sandman' proves that the series, based on the comic book by the controversial Neil Gaiman, could have been a whole world to expand and explore for decades to come. [Full Review in Spanish]

Inverse

Brief glimmers of something original and inventive start to get overshadowed by the morose tone and sluggish pace of the second half of the season.

The Spectator

Merely a bunch of mopey goth types in an over-elaborate computer-generated fantasy landscape striking attitudes, declaiming cod pieties and being generally inert and miserable.

WORST SEQUEL EVER. There are things that we don't have to finish for us to save our energies or might as well remember it as a good memory-- SANDMAN 2 is the greatest example of that

We must protect great art even if the artist is a horrible person. Art must be above punishment or reproach. We can cancel people, but never cancel art.

This show is awful and boring. It had the potential to be great, but instead it seems like it's target audience is junior high aged goth kids. (nothing against that audience, it's just not meant for a larger audience)
