1923 Season 2 Faces Criticism for Character Development as Finale Promises Darker Tone

Fans praise the show's intensity but question the writing for Jack and Elizabeth Dutton, while the finale is expected to deliver emotional impact.

Taylor Sheridan's 1923 Season 2 has received positive overall reception but faced backlash for the underwhelming development of Jack and Elizabeth Dutton's characters.
Fans compare Jack and Elizabeth unfavorably to other Dutton couples, citing a lack of compelling dynamics and chemistry between the two characters.
Actress Michelle Randolph, who plays Elizabeth, acknowledged her character's struggles and hinted at challenges that could lead to growth later in the season.
Brandon Sklenar, portraying Spencer Dutton, revealed that the season finale will adopt a darker, more intense tone and praised its storytelling quality.
1923 Season 2, which premiered on February 23, 2025, is set to conclude on April 13, 2025, with high expectations for its dramatic conclusion.
