We're ready to watch Mythic Quest season 2 online, and Friday gives us a double dose of the MQ team. But how will things change now that Ian (Rob McElhenney) and Poppy (Charlotte Nicdao) are both co-leads for the game?

In our Mythic Quest season 2 review, we detailed how the Apple TV Plus series improves this time out, giving plenty of time for Danny Pudi's Brad and Jessie Ennis' Jo, who are forming a dangerous alliance. Of course, expect more excellence from F. Murray Abraham, whose character C.W. Longbottom has a lot to work with this season.

Overall, MQ season 2 benefits from giving more time to its whole ensemble, and experimenting with different pairings of the cast. Of course, expect more romantic feels from Rachel (Ashly Burch) and Dana (Imani Hakim).

How to watch Mythic Quest season 2 with a VPN

If you're stuck abroad — in one of the few countries where Apple TV Plus is not available — you will likely run into geo-fenced restrictions on the platforms and services you can use. But with the help of a virtual private network (VPN), you can watch On The Rocks and all the other services you already pay for no matter where you are.

Based on our testing, the best VPN is ExpressVPN, which is easy to use and delivers fast internet speeds, making it simple to set up for streaming in no time at all. It also works on practically any device, starting with iOS and Android and including streaming devices such as the Amazon Fire TV Stick and Apple TV.

Mythic Quest season 2 reviews

Here are some quotes from our review:

"Mythic Quest season 2 works so well for Brad because of how it fleshes him out as a character. Brad's personal secrets are slowly revealed, as his likable brother visits the office for Brad's birthday, which sets off a powder keg of sibling rivalry emotions."

"Mythic Quest season 2 thrives in large part to the ability to spend more time with characters who didn't get as much attention in season 1. And while you might have thought that the David Brittlesbee character was properly developed in season 1, you'll be cackling at what he gets up to in season 2, as the writers have found sad new lows for the executive producer of MQ to cling on."

"Mythic Quest season 2 [goes for a standalone episode] again, with an episode that's more directly tied to its series. And while the overall results of this episode work pretty well once you zoom out, the episode itself didn't grab me in the ways that 'A Dark Quiet Death' did."

"Nicdao and McElhenney's work this season doesn't just provide excellent laughs and story-beats for the season, but they are two of the biggest reasons why I am excited for a potential season 3. Apple has not greenlit MQ3 yet, but I am very much waiting for the word to come down from on high."
