The second season of "Dark Matter" will actually expand beyond Blake Crouch's original story to focus on the aftermath of the unleashing of the Box technology in season one, and the impact this has on the Dessen family amid a multiversal conflict.
Jason, as we know, is a little bit obsessed with the Box, which really will start break apart his family. Meanwhile, Daniela grows increasingly paranoid , which is fair, given alternate versions of her husband could show up at any moment. It's all about survival this season, with ten fresh episodes to sink your teeth into.
