I feel like everyone’s talking about Christina’s acting (brilliant ofc) but oh my god Linda in season 2 deserves an emmy as much!!

[@saifmahmudishtiakshushaan462]

In my opinion, Linda is the standout in this season. I mean Christina is fucking great too but Linda just killed it. Both these women should be showered with awards!

[@dcool2u2]

What about James playing Steve's twin brother... He is ao believable as a totally different person and personality!

[@kccap]

I absolutely agree! O my god the scene when she shouted STOPPP inside her car blew me away! Like seriously she's soo amazing!

[@lalitharavindran]

Teresa Walker yes, Linda’s range and nuanced acting made all the difference.

[@noellenn2122]

Christina's acting this 2nd season is stupendous. She should get an Emmy nom, at the very least!

[@sowintoyou]

Absolutely amazing. I was blown away.

[@irisdekkers4462]

Yes she is great.

[@JJNoire]

Yes! They all deserve best acting awards. Katy Sagal was amazing too. Everything well written & well cast.

[@hospering]

Her talent is immense and extremely nuanced, the series shows it fully. In second season moreover Christina Applegate worked more in substraction, it's very impressing and powerful. It's like if Liz Feldman had reversed the mirror set between Jen and Judy in the first season. It would be really interesting to see where she'll push the story in the final one.

[@Isladepee25]

She did I think

[@HomerJade]

one of the BEST shows to ever exist

[@Miss_Morgendorffer]

I loved it when Jen said to Judy "You need to come home." That was after kicking her out and wishing her dead. She still considered her home to be Judy's home as well. They will always be connected, no matter what.

[@narrativa9928]

Linda Cardellini needs an Emmy for this season!

[@toughtaurus7270]

FACTS!!!

[@jazmin9136]

they were both so good! they're friendship is just **chefs kiss**

[@bradbarnes7939]

the most underrated actress in television.

[@CONANCHICK]

"Judy" is one of the best fictional characters ever written! She represents so many people around the globe. Thanks for being so real and authentic during her creation @LizFeldman! Linda Cardellini is definitely an underrated actress and deserves more attention for her performances!

[@kevincook7510]

Who didn't fall in love with Linda, watching this series!!!

[@slowbro173]

I’ve been charmed by her since freaks and geeks 😅

[@MissStephanieM]

love how they're talking season 3 !! best show in years

[@yuankun99]

Terrible show. I love all the actors in this show but the story is just terrible. How is it that the passenger gets the blame for killing Ted? Judy was the one driving the car. She killed him. And it doesn't matter that the passenger told the driver to keep driving. The Driver should have known better and stopped the car. Don't they teach that when you get your licence?

[@MissStephanieM]

yuankun99 lol it’s called a tv show & thats why it’s so good cus it’s so wild

[@sydniii3842]

yuankun99 ur thinking bout it too hard...

[@mercedescavani]

Where's the James Marsden love? He's amazing.

[@azaz5758]

I literally can't wait for season 3 😁

[@yerdevesi]

Damn, did Christina just get teary eyed at 02:30, when she said she got to see the others? She is such a genuine person. I loved how James Marsden turned it around. Little hints of goodness.

[@JJNoire]

The mastectomy issue introduction dovetailed brilliantly with Ben’s heart surgeries and scars. Gave Jen’s character even more depth

[@laurie1741]

Linda and Christina are both such great actresses and i just love how they became friends in real life too!! Liz is probably a great matchmaker hahahah

[@themripley]

They need to make sure James is in future seasons. He is so good. And Ben is so likeable.

[@nhlover]

Christina, Linda and James were awesome. Could not have had a better cast. But I loved how James nailed the differences between Steve and Ben

[@marianlyons5130]

The boys were great as well!

[@manoelatorres3704]

Liz Feldman is OUT OF THIS WORLD, such talent ❤️😍

[@gettingdesperate1]

linda cardellini deserves all the awards for s2 but mostly because of her scene in the bathroom mirror. she killed it.

[@archerygirly]

One of my favorite shows literally ever. Brilliant acting, writing, directing, cinematography, everything! Thank you for creating such an amazing piece of art!

[@Kelly_81]

Best show EVER.... I got my husband, my grandma, everyone is watching it! So incredibly and beautifully done! Happy, sad, mad, and other every emotion I never knew I had.

[@laurakobetich9809]

I really really really loved this show. I’m just waiting for enough time to pass so I can watch it all over again. Props to everyone who was a part in creating DtM👏🏼

[@rebeccamason3944]

Watched season one and two in 2 days back to back. Was hooked from the beginning! The ending of season two had me gasp out loud and on the edge of my seat. Just unbelievable work, congratulations!

[@isabellasantiago3161]

I actually watched it all in one day! Amazing show. I was literally crying to my mom because we have to wait until 2021. I started watching it in 2019 but my mom thought I was too young for it with the language. But now, since I’m 12, I got to watch it and believe me, I do not get hooked on shows very often. Congratulations!

[@manoelatorres3704]

Rebecca Mason same, season 1 fpr the second timee

[@Indrid-Cold]

LINDA CARDELLINI! The most adorably hott, and lovable nerd❣️

[@slowbro173]

James Marsden was so great in both roles

[@SangHendrix]

Season 2 was amazing!!! I felt worried and stressed for the characters as I watched.

[@skygrace2746]

HANDS DOWN BEST SHOW ON NETFLIX- Christina Applegate is BOSS!!! Just got done with season 2. Top notch performances. Ms. Applegate- mind blowing! Linda...just...WOW...JAMES, very few actors can do what you did. This show is perfection. Hope it keeps goin❤️

[@mmuriburu]

LOVED THE STORY!!! LOVED THE SUPER AMAZING FRIENDSHIP BETWEEN THOSE TWO BEAUTIFUL WOMEN!!! THANKS!!

[@carlycoppi4769]

So glad James came back he’s so great and so hot obviously!!! Perfect!!

[@hctangerine]

I loved Season 2 as much as the first one! ❤️ Such a brilliant cast (wow) and amazingly dark crazy and hella funny writing. PS. Really glad we still got to keep James Marsden teehee

[@elisam.2896]

So they're talking about mother's... and they're not going to talk about Katey Sagal playing Linda's mom? And that she's played Christina's mom??? I want to hear about that!!

[@JJDuffy]

Right??? I was like, helloooo... pleeease mention that!!

[@ionicreviews]

A truly great show . Glad it rank num 1 on Netflix.

[@yuankun99]

Terrible show. I love the actors but I don't want my teens watching this. It passes the wrong message. The Driver is the one who killed Ted, not the passenger.

[@Roanoke854]

@@yuankun99 You're taking the fictional plot of a dramedy wayyy too seriously. Besides, the show doesn't frame Judy as some blameless paragon.

[@yuankun99]

@@Roanoke854 Fictional or not. It doesn't matter. I don't like this neither on fiction or real life. Besides, we're all here to talk about the fictional show, so I can take things seriously if I want.

[@buttercupstruelove340]

Speaking of the 'mother' theme throughout season 2, I like that Katey Sagal played Judy's mom, Eleanor. Katey, of course, played Christina Applegate's mom, Peg Bundy, in the long running "Married With Children". Thank you showrunners for this nice casting!

[@jola9403]

The best series I’ve watched... Every single person is so convincing in the character they play!

[@ageordieboy]

Binge watched season two in two days. Finished last night. Unbelievably good 😊

[@jamcrx]

I love Linda Cardelini.

[@kccap]

Can't understand why this show is underrated..it's amazing!

[@leondarko8491]

BEST SHOW EVER!!! I can’t get over how this is my favorite show ever

[@sherbysilva1417]

Best show on netflix right now

[@celiaperez2516]

I'm French, ans I love these artists, they are so wonderfull!!! It's a Big succes in France !!!

[@kdbwiz]

The acting crew is really good. The women are stunningly great actresses. Awards are coming!

[@sassygurl8615]

I was so stressed for the characters as I watched this show, amazing!!!!

[@AshitaNoKanousei42]

I binged season 2 weeks ago, I was just wondering if Katey is even old enough to be Linda's mom, and I'm only now realizing that Katey also played Christina's mom. hahahah

[@barbaraceci1970]

I watched the whole second season this past weekend. Sooo good! The twists are make great connection in the end. And, DANG, Christina is one hell of a crier 😭

[@rinaarora478]

I love the show SO much! Great to see Christina and James back on the screen. As for Linda never knew her from anywhere - really, but she's fantastic. I can resonate with both the ladies' character.

[@geriq9151]

I've already watched Season 2 (binged it!!) and I LOVED IT! Twists and turns doesn't even scratch the surface! Cannot wait for Season 3!!

[@anononnl]

This storyline FLOORED ME! I couldn't believe it! and I LOVED IT!

[@sunshinetx36]

Absolutely AMAZING show! All time favorite! The gals are adorably beautiful and my favorites. James is a hottie of course. I wish these 2 gals were my best friends. True best friends are hard to come by. I love love love this show! Cant wait for every season as I binge watch them all in a day! Please keep this show for many many many years! Did I mention I LOVE this show and these beautiful ladies? Truth!

[@notthefather3919]

Omg. I'm so slow! JUDY'S MOM on Dead to Me. It just now occured to me whose mom she used to play! That's how good the acting is.

[@kdbwiz]

Im still slow, who did she play?

[@notthefather3919]

@@kdbwiz she played Christina Applegate's mom on the legendary classic Married with Children.

[@karenk5581]

Binge watched seasons 1 & 2 in two sittings. Please hurry back!

[@correaplayz01nunya93]

I watched all of season 2 in two nights- I HAD to see what happened next and couldn't stop, I was up all night to finish it , then I was mad I finished so quickly ! I can't wait until season 3. That will be another all nighter, I'm sure

[@KimTownsel]

Dead to Me is a breath of fresh air. 🤍💙 Wow... just after I typed that, Liz used that phrase.

[@Puppa38]
