I'm about half way through season two. I was enjoying it more than the first one.
Sense8 Christmas Special and Season 2 Release Date Announced
- Thread starter The Nth Doctor
- Start date
Sweet! That's something at least!
Yeeeesss! I was hoping they would do that! 
Well, that's a relief. Wachowski's letter leaves open the prospect of more beyond this special, but I hope they do it in a way that resolves the main arcs and provides closure, rather than ending on a cliffhanger.
Her letter does but the video on Netflix US' Twitter feed makes it clear that it's a finale.

Those aren't mutually exclusive. It's always possible to do a finale in a way that leaves room for new stories to follow. The end of the TV series doesn't necessarily mean the end of the franchise; there could be a feature film, or a comic book, or whatever.
Man, they really like that song.
JMS has said that a comic or novel was unlikely. But then, as recently as the night of the 19th/20th, he said there were no plans or conversations regarding a special. In fact, I'm very interested to see what he'll say about this.
I think it's mostly that fans have latched on to it as an anthem of sorts. I read that there were fans in Positano who sang it outside of the cast's hotel.
He-Man has made it hard for me to take seriously.
I don't understand.
Pretty sure it's this. But be warned, it's hilarious but not pretty!
Cool, I didn't know there was a longer version, the shorter one gets right to the point.
He mentioned that he avoided answering questions about a 2-hour special but I think he was reading too fast the night I mentioned because that was exactly what he was answering. Ordinarily he simply doesn't answer questions rather than even telling a 'white lie'.
He's got more patience than I ever would though. Fans are 'schooling' him for being too negative.
I have a feeling that the finale will be more eventful than the entire second season.
A behind-the-scenes look at the finale, which doubles as a big thank you from the cast to the fans:
Apparently there were some scenes shown the other day at a Brazilian comic-con. Here's a description of them. SPOILERS if you follow the link (and translate)!

Sad that JMS wasn't even involved in the writing of the special but I'm glad fans are getting this closure.

Having watched up to 2x4 a few months ago, I just watched 2x5, "Fear Never Fixed Anything," and... Christ, was that boring! All the individual sensates' melodramas are dull and repetitive. The "e-death in a USB stick" concept was stupid in The Dark Knight Rises, and hasn't improved since then. Meanwhile, I get the gist, but none of the substance, of the religious arguments in India, the gang war dynamics in Germany, or whatever the heck is going on in Africa. Sense8, I officially give up. Goodbye.
