Sweet Magnolias is a taste that must be acquired. Like marmite on bread, you’ll either enjoy this or turn up your nose and toss it in the trash. The first season of this show set the tone for this.
It was a syrupy-sweet, cheesy, and slightly corny melodrama, plainly intended for viewers to watch intermittently in the background. With a late influx of momentum and a cliffhanger conclusion, the door was left wide open for a second season to provide more drama and intriguing character interactions.
To call Season 2 of Sweet Magnolias exciting is like to call a leisurely boat ride thrilling. There is nothing particularly negative about it, but neither is there anything particularly positive. It’s a drama about a group of Southerners who go about their lives in a cheerful manner, with some surface drama or episodic squabbles interspersed throughout.

That will be just what the doctor ordered for some. Others will find it absolutely tedious. And after two or three episodes of this season, you’ll know if it’s for you. Because, in all honesty, the majority of the season consists of inoffensive mediocrity.
The plot continues directly from where the first season left off. Following their vehicle accident, Kyle and Nellie are brought to the hospital for treatment. Ty and Jackson get into an altercation, which results in Jackson pushing Ty to the ground and breaking his arm, thereby wrecking his summer baseball plans.
In the meantime, Maddie and Cal become closer. Dana must choose between Jeremy and Ronnie, while Helen struggles with major news and ultimately must make a decision of her own.
The children add their own subplots, which include personal turmoil, love triangles, crushes, and normal squabbles. In addition, there are a few town-wide difficulties, such as a petition and Isaac’s birth mother, but that’s about it.
I noted previously that this show is intended for folks who watch television while holding a phone and occasionally peek up to take in the scene. The problem is that the tale is so bland and devoid of actual drama that even that might seem tedious at times.
Season 2 is essentially a series of subplots strung together and stretched across 10 episodes. And the highlight of the entire performance is the food!
