Season two keeps its focus on the trio’s bond and comedic chops, yet sharpens itself along the way. Like any deli worth its salt, the series is reliable, high-quality, and oddly comforting.

The dynamics of Deli Boys have changed as DarCo’s business has grown, but there are still enough funny moments to make the second season fun to watch.

The fact that Deli Boys season 2 achieves what it does in such a short amount of time is a testament to great writing, but the true crowning glory of this series is its cast. Ali and Shaikh are better than ever in this installment.

Though its narrative is hampered by a shorter run (season two only has six episodes versus season one’s 10) and a surprisingly sanitized Fred Armisen as a crime boss, the series is funnier than ever.

Even with its tighter runtime and a few character arcs that deserved more, Deli Boys Season 2 remains one of the funniest and most distinctive shows to come out of streaming.
