The second season of Under the Dome, an American science fiction mystery drama television series, premiered on CBS on June 30, 2014,[1] and ended on September 22, 2014.

Military forces, the government, and the media positioned outside the barrier attempt to break it down, while the residents trapped inside must find their own ways to survive with diminishing resources and rising tensions.

"[4] Negative reviews included Hank Stuever of The Washington Post, who wrote that "I just don’t buy Under the Dome, on any level.

[23] However, other critics were more positive; Mark Dawidziak of The Plain Dealer wrote that "If not top-tier TV terror fare, Under the Dome certainly is solid second-level stuff.

Even while acknowledging the occasional misstep, give Under the Dome credit for getting a lot of things right",[24] while Sarah Rodman of The Boston Globe wrote that "there are glimmers of hope for season two".
