Why You Can Trust CNET 'Outer Range' Season 2 on Prime Video: Release Date and Time
Josh Brolin stars as Wyoming rancher Royal Abbott in season 2 of the sci-fi series.
Have a giant hole in your streaming plans? One potential remedy -- given that you caught season 1 -- is season 2 of Prime Video's sci-fi Western mind-bender Outer Range.
The first installment introduced Josh Brolin as Royal Abbott, a patriarch who finds a dark void on his family's ranch in Wyoming. In addition to his wife, two sons and granddaughter, the main players include the Tillersons -- neighboring ranchers seeking a portion of the Abbotts' land -- Autumn -- a young woman who starts to camp on the property -- and Joy -- the town's acting sheriff. The second season will see the mystery surrounding the black hole deepen following the events of the season 2 finale, according to a synopsis.
Outer Range premiered in 2022 and currently has a score of 60 on Metacritic. If you're ready for the continuation of the Abbotts' story, here's when you can start watching season 2 in the US. The new entry will be binge-friendly, with all seven episodes releasing at once.
