SEASON PREMIERE: Season 1 of Rectify ended with Daniel (Aden Young), the death row inmate freed after 19 years in prison because of overturned evidence, being beaten what looked like to death by vengeful citizens of his home town. Had Rectify not been renewed, that’s probably how Daniel’s story would have ended. But with the miniseries renewed, Rectify returns – with the character in a coma, and the narrative alternating between flashbacks from Daniel’s prison days, significant dreams, and ways in which Daniel’s family, friends and enemies react to his brutal beating and comatose condition. It’s a rough road, but instantly and thoroughly compelling, just like last year’s story. For a full review, see Eric Gould’s The Cold Light Reader.
