FUBAR Season 2 Review — Carrie-Anne Moss and a Piglet Steal the Show
FUBAR Season 2 review: Arnold Schwarzenegger is back in action in FUBAR Season 2, a Netflix spy comedy that thrives on nostalgia while delivering a mildly entertaining ride. Picking up from the explosive events of Season 1, the show opens with Luke Brunner (Schwarzenegger), his CIA agent daughter Emma (Monica Barbaro), and their quirky team holed up in a safe house suffering from cabin fever.

FUBAR Season 2 Episode 8 leans heavily on Schwarzenegger’s storied filmography. From dancing a tango with his former flame Greta Nelso (Carrie-Anne Moss) in a nod to True Lies, to casually dropping his iconic Terminator catchphrase “I’ll be back,” FUBAR doesn’t shy away from winking at its audience. There are even deeper callbacks, including sodium pentothal truth serum scenes, references to Total Recall, and appearances by True Lies co-star Tom Arnold, playing ace interrogator Norm Carlson.

FUBAR Season 2 review: Nostalgia Overload
FUBAR Season 2 review would be complete without mentioning the sheer volume of Schwarzenegger movie references. From True Lies tango scenes with Carrie-Anne Moss’s Greta Nelso, to Terminator quotes and Total Recall nods, the series is loaded with Easter eggs. Even Tom Arnold appears as Norm Carlson, adding to the True Lies reunion vibe.
The meta-humor gets heavy at times — Brunner quips, “Sometimes I kill a guy and I cannot even come up with a funny line,” a sign that the show knows it’s parodying itself, for better or worse.
