In the end, there’s reason to be hopeful this second season will expand on the imaginative universe built in season 1 while improving upon what’s come before.
It looks like this season will see its young protagonists charged with the care of Fillory, as its new regents.
The Magicians season 2 premieres on Jan. 25, 2017 on Syfy at 9pm.
No matter what, though, The Magicians is sure to provide fans with the same fascinating visuals and entertaining dynamics it established at its start.
