Some shows have a knack for making comebacks to the top 10, even long after their debut. Such resurgence often comes from the excitement of a new season, and “Rogue Heroes” is just such a show. The release of the Season 2 trailer rekindled that interest and drew in both repeat and new viewers. With a staggering 100% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, it is no wonder that many are revisiting the show for a refresher before the release of Season 2 in January 2025.

“Rogue Heroes” is a gripping war drama about the origins of one of history's most elite armies, the Special Air Service (SAS). Set in World War II and based on the book by Ben McIntyre, the show dramatizes the birth of the SAS, where rebellious soldiers fed up with conventional tactics unite to form a daring special forces unit that performs dangerous missions behind enemy lines.
