The OA (Netflix, Friday): One of Netflix’s most mystifying and ambitious ventures, The OA took us to different realities, gave us more questions than it answered, and inspired many a Reddit thread when it debuted two years ago. Now, its second season opens in a grim reality where Obama was never president, and where its titular lead leads a different life as a Russian heiress and is once again in Hap’s clutches. Season one left us in a state of bewilderment, and based on this season’s trailer, it’s safe to say we can expect another eight episodes of otherworldly, genre-melding, mind-bending mystery. Alex McLevy is ready to offer his own interpretation.
