I don't know if it spent all of 2016 training up in the mountains or what, but this show has earned the right to be called a "genre bending martial arts series" now.
It's not perfect, but Into the Badlands' second season is a major improvement, juxtaposing martial arts sequences with intriguing drama (and some much-needed laughs from Nick Frost).
While the show hasn't improved on every flaw from the first season, the change in scenery, the shifting balance of power and the generally increased scope of the series all result in a more compelling post-apocalyptic drama.
Blending frenetic martial arts sequences with a fantastical disregard for physics and logic gives the show a unique formula to help it stand out in this era of Peak TV.
It isn't the greatest show: it's campy, the politics can be dull, and the acting is often stilted and awkward. But the action is consistently incredible.
