Furious achieves critical acclaim and renewed for season 2

Overview

The eight-episode crime thriller *Furious* premiered on 27 July 2026, streaming on Hulu in the United States and on Disney+ internationally. Created by Elizabeth Meriwether and starring Emmy Rossum as FBI agent Alice Black, the series achieved a perfect 100% score on Rotten Tomatoes and became a top-ranked title on both streaming platforms. As the investigation into serial killer Catherine Grace progressed, the narrative deepened the connection between various homicides and trafficking cases. In episode four, agents Alice and Danny identified Catherine as a suspect through testimony and a photograph linked to a former foster home. Episode five, ‘Pick a Sticker’, saw Catherine kidnap and kill a lawyer named Hal at the home of Alden Drummings, causing FBI turmoil regarding a sensitive cold case. This episode also highlighted Alice’s attempt to compromise the sobriety of her abusive ex-partner, Marshall, to protect her professional standing after he reported her for brandishing a weapon. Rossum described filming these intense sequences as “whiskey waterboarding.” In episode six, ‘They Make a Noise Like Feathers’, Alice attempted to go undercover at a women’s shelter to gain Catherine’s trust by sharing details of her own past trauma. However, Catherine discovered the deception, leading to a confrontation where Catherine shot Marshall before fleeing. The episode concluded with agent Danny discovering a folder labeled ‘Alice’ within Jay Easton’s hidden files, which also contained material related to underage girls. Following the season finale, ‘Hart Island’, which aired on 31 August, the series saw a significant viewership surge. While the finale initially suggested Alice Black killed Jay Easton, subsequent analysis of the narrative clarifies the circumstances surrounding Isabel Luna.
