Humans season 2 will premiere for American audiences this February.
AMC's Humans will be returning to American audiences on February 2017, but it's already hitting Britain's Channel 4. The great android revival continues as the series from Sam Vincent and Jonathan Brackley picks up where it left off. Here's the season two synposis from AMC:
Season two picks up several months after the events of season one, with Niska (Emily Berrington) still at large and in possession of the consciousness code. Her synth family, Mia (GemmaChan), Leo (Colin Morgan), and Max (Ivanno Jeremiah), unaware of her location, are each trying to find their place in the world while Joe (Tom Goodman-Hill) and Laura (Katherine Parkinson) attempt to mend their marriage.
The sci-fi drama, set in a parallel present in which humanoid robots known as "synths" have revolutionised every area of society from industry to care-giving to sex, has proved to be one of Channel 4's biggest success stories.
Spooks writers Sam Vincent and Jon Brackley adapted their series from the Swedish original, Real Humans, which aired its own second series in October 2013. A third run is said to be in the pipeline for the Scandinavian show, but as yet, hasn't officially been confirmed.
