3 characters we want to see more of in In the Dark season 2

When In the Dark returns for its second season this spring, we want to see more of these three characters.

The CW announced the network’s spring and summer TV lineups and that means we know when In the Dark will be returning for its second season. The sophomore show will be returning on May 28, which not only gives us plenty of time to go back and watch the first season from the beginning, but also come up with a list of things we hope to see when the show returns.

After watching Murphy finally get the answers to who killed her friend Tyson, it feels like the show can move on from that element of the series. However, that still leaves the writers room with plenty of storylines to dig deeper. Here are three characters we want to see more of.

1. Max

We would love to see the return of Max, the food truck owner and love interest for Murphy. While he may not always have been the best guy out there, he was great for her and made her a lot happier. It would be nice to find out what happened after they went their separate ways for their safety and maybe bring him back into the fold.

2. Dean

And while we know who killed Tyson and why, hopefully In the Dark is willing to give us more of Dean, the crooked cop who actually seems to have fallen for Murphy. Even though we are no longer fans of Dean, it will be interesting to see if his brand of trouble continues to be a problem. Plus, the idea of no longer getting to see his feisty daughter interacting with Murphy and the world around her just seems so wrong.

3. Darnell

Now that the truth is out that it was Dean who killed Tyson, that leaves us with the problem of Darnell, Tyson’s cousin and the man who was accused of killing him. Darnell is not a good guy, but since he is sitting in jail for a crime he didn’t commit, it will be interesting to see what happens with his story.

Darnell and Murphy have their own complicated relationship, especially since their main focus has been on Tyson and what happened to him. So now that Murphy knows the truth, one can only imagine how she likely feels about the Darnell situation.

Although the premise of In the Dark seems to be about focusing as much on Murphy living her life as a blind woman as it is on the loss of her friend, there are so many other people who this story has focused on. And these are the people we want to see more of in season 2, especially people like Max and Darnell who were just as wrapped up in the loss of Tyson as Murphy herself.

Before In the Dark returns in May, you may want to rewatch the first season to see if look for any clues as to where the story is going next. We already know that the woman running the gangs and drugs is going to force Murphy to do her dirty work for her going forward, but what this means for the story and our characters we can’t wait to see.
