I honestly think they should do 13 episodes instead of 10. With 13 episodes you don't have to rush anything and you can tell the story better.

I agree, only with 10 episodes it is very difficult to find the right balance.

That depends on the success of the series, right?

Roswell had 22 episodes in season 1. Times have changed. Most seasons are shorter now.

no, not anymore. There a lot of successful shows like Homeland, Orphan Black, Outlander that have less than 22 episodes because 22 episodes don't always work well for some shows. People get bored quickly.

It's the same with the ratings, that system has changed too. It's now very important that shows are doing well on other devices (Netflix, Amazon, Hulu), which is great for UnReal.

UnReal does also well in the L3 and L7 ratings.

It's also possible that UnReal will get another season somewhere else if Lifetime ever decides to cancel it.

That's so true. UnREAL is Lifetimes bread and butter so it's not going anywhere for a while. S3 is going to be interesting. S1 had every critic raving about the show. S2 was the complete opposite.

not completely true. It's true there were some people who didn't like it because it made some people feel very uncomfortable. It was mixed ( reviews here were a lot better) and that's okay.
Season 2 is usually about trying new things and brining characters to a certain place and some of it worked very well. What they did with Chet was awesome, they showed different sites of Rachel and Quinn which gave them another layer.
We had more Jay and Rachel scenes and Shiri killed it.

What I didn't like is, that we still don't know what will happen with Rachel and Adam. I need to know
