I have it queued up, but I'm anticipating disappointment with M Shalom being involved

M Night Shamalamadingdong has made crappier and crappier shit every time he has touched something.

Has that Twin Peaks vibe, hope it's not that obvious

It's supposed to be an adaptation of some book... not written by Shamalamadingdong, mind you.

It looks that way, doesn't it? It would be pretty sad if they did give up the ghost in the first episode only to see it become a self-fulfilling prophecy all the way through. But I don't think that's gonna happen, so I'm gonna stick with it and see what happens next. I wanna find out what happened to that dead dude that was all fucked up.

It's too bad they showed Dillon outside of the town with the sign...I am curious how they'll explain the driving thing when he left/immediately was back driving into the town...

I did note the phones. All rotary and push button, no cell phones. There's is a time thing happening for sure..

oh and from the net...it's supposed to be a 10 episode event only, meaning like a mini-series. Under the Dome was supposed to be the same thing yet it went on into another few seasons...

makers have said - It is not a dream and no, the entire cast is not dead so don't think about those theories when trying to figure it out.

Time hasn't been kind to her...looked like she was wearing a mask at times :(

So we know it's 1999 according to Kate and she thinks she's been there for a year only, not 14 years.

And we know that talking about the past earns you a public lynching where all concerned seem to think this is okay :tup:


wtf :lol:

Also...I've seen that exact scene in other movies or TV. The one with Matt driving past the welcome sign and then mysteriously driving towards it again.

They had a wide angled shot of the entire town at the end of the first episode before Dillon meets up with the cop. It's nothing too weird: it's just one road that goes out of town, circles round and leads back into town. The town is enclosed within that fence on all sides. There's no way in or out... or so it seems.

Hal, what you may be the thinking of is an episode of "Eureka" vis a vie the town signs. I just watched episode 1. Plan to watch second maybe sun night. I'm hooked for now. May even grab the book after all 10 episodes are done.

I have watched some of Eureka. No, I'm sure I've seen that exact idea in a movie...right down to the driving loop going past Welcome to Whatever City sign :-k

So after 3 episodes, it is very similar to Persons Unknown. Everyone is aware that something is going on, yet no one can leave.

I did like in the recent episode where Matt was made sheriff about 5 minutes after the other guy was killed :lol:

I'm not sure about the latest development.

If it's actually 4028, how did we see that doctor in the real world and also Burke's wife when she was at the secret service building stealing info to find him?

and 4028 is their current time doubled exactly (2014)...


So I'll play...it's 4028 and that is the last of humanity living in the small town of Wayward Pines. And they have reckonings, killing people on the street because they spoke out of turn???? Pretty arbitrary considering it's the last of our species :lol: I call bullshit

I think it's 'interesting' and will prob stick it out till the end, that and the fact there's nothing else on just now and I'm only really able to fit in about an HR if TV a week anymore! Well 2 hrs for just now till GOT finishes this week..

So we have the premise. It somehow is 4028 and Wayward Pines is the last of humanity. People living in town and people living in cryo-stasis thingys.

So what does the visionary and humanitarian David Pilcher do? He tries to kill every living town member because the new sheriff won't have reckonings. He says - It's all bad...


and then, the sister who has helped and stood by him for years...shoots her own brother dead.


:facepalm:


I know TV series can't always go the way I would like to see them go, but the above is a fine example of huge plot moments occurring based on stupidity or really weak reasoning. Idiotic....

He just likes to start over when things dont go his way, he's got plenty of people to start again ;)
