The “explosive” opening episode of the second season of the hit crime drama Kin aired on Sunday night after a long wait and viewers were loving it.

Fans were loving the first episode, which starts off with the Kinsella family thriving in the wake of Eamon Cunningham's death.

The Twitter user clearly couldn’t get enough of the show as they later added in another tweet: “Gangland crime shouldn't look this sexy. One of the very best things RTE has bought to the screen in recent years. Season two begins…”
