How to watch Snowpiercer season 2 episode 9 online and on Netflix in the UK
It's time to watch Snowpiercer season 2 to see how TNT's adaptation of the Bong Joon-ho movie continues
Snowpiercer season 2 episode 9 airs at 9 p.m. ET/PT on Monday (March 22).
Season 2 will continue to air at this time, weekly, on TNT.
Tonight we continue to watch Snowpiercer season 2 online, with episode 9 (entitled "The Show Must Go On"). And tonight is what it's all been building towards: Wilford has seized control over the Snowpiercer — and Layton and all of his allies are in trouble. Of course, this isn't the end of the line, but only a chance for our heroes to pull success out of the teeth of failure.
It all continues on the same track that season 1 had. Our survivors are in a post-apocalyptic world, stuck on a train that won't stop and struggling to survive. It's only natural that the series found a way to divide their numbers.
Update: Snowpiercer is being killed off after four seasons.

The series is a reboot of Bong Joon-ho (Parasite) movie of the same name, which itself was an adaptation of the French graphic novel Le Transperceneige.
Snowpiercer's show-runner is Orphan Black co-creator Graeme Manson, and it's delving into into similar issues as the movie. While that began as the divide between the wealthy at the front of the train and the poor and oppressed at the back of the train, the addition of Mr. Wilford's train complicates things further.
"As a fan of the film and reading the scripts, it broadens the world exponentially. and that's one of the advantages of TV, you have time," Diggs explained to reporters in 2017. "So the politics that are hinted at in the film are explored in much more depth, and the mechanism of the train [is explored further] — just the little things that create a world, world specificity. It's the thing, specifics, it's why i'm a sci-fi nerd."

Snowpiercer season 2 trailer
The official Snowpiercer season 2 trailer shows us the surprising reveal where Mr. Wilford's train arrived and reunited Melanie (Jennifer Connelly) with her daughter Alexandra (Rowan Blanchard).
We also get a good look at how regal and twisted Mr. Wilford's train, Big Alice, is. There's art all over his private cabin, as well as the Alleys, which is a fatally cold section you don't want to stay in.
