What Twisted Metal Season 2's New Clip Says About The Show
The Video Game Adaptation Is Jumping Right Back Into The Action
Twisted Metal season 1 ended with setup for the titular racing contest, which had been notably absent from the show's first episodes. The latest clip shows the event starting in full force, with Calypso overseeing the racers as things quickly take a deadly turn. Sweet Tooth has been an imposing villain since the start of the show, the clip's focus on his actions indicating he'll continue to be a major adversary as the contest continues. However, the funny deflection of one rocket with a character's scythe shows the series' humor remains intact from season 1.

Peacock's Twisted Metal is loud, eccentric, and full of fast car chases and larger-than-life characters – and so are these other movies and shows.
As for John Doe and Quiet, their reasons for being in the race are more multifaceted because of the events of season 1. This deeper meaning will likely be expanded upon across season 2's 12-episode run, with characters in Twisted Metal all having their stories intersect with the protagonists. Their brief moment in the clip hints their storyline is a protection mission, though one that's clearly gone awry not long into the race. How it will play out as the season unfolds remains to be seen.
