Anyone watching Wayward Pines?

[elleblue]

We just watched the first two episodes tonight. So far I find it interesting, though it's one of those shows that's either going to be good or absolutely terrible. I'm hoping since it's only 10 episodes Fox won't be a bunch of jerks and cancel it. 

Eta: also first episode is available for free with an Amazon prime membership

[bania]

Yes we are. So far it's good and I hope it stays that way. The storyline could get weird.

You should watch! And not just because I want someone else to talk to about it, lol. Episode 3 will be airing Thursday, but you can catch the first two on Prime streaming. Sadly I think episode 2 is like $1.99 or something. But the first is free! lol

That's what worries me too. It'll either be fantastic or go off the rails like Lost. Since it's based on a book I'm hopeful because that means they aren't just making it up as they go along, lol. 

Eta: also I miss seeing you around these parts!

Yes, we're watching it, I really like it so far. I like that it's just ten episodes so they can't drag it out and F it up!

[pretzel]

yes! I really liked the first two and I'm excited that it's M. Night Shamalan! I can't wait for more.

[tacokick]

We are. Like others I think it can be good but might end up being really bad. Since there are only 10 episodes, I wish the first two were better!

My H sent me an article/review that suggested watching the whole thing or nothing at all. Basically, it's not going to make sense until you have all the episodes under your belt. We'll see!

We are watching it. I'm nervous about how it will turn out

[itsme]

I started watching it this weekend. I am thoroughly intrigued.

[mountaingirl]

Just watched the first episode and about to start the second. It is a miniseries so just the 10 episodes they say.

Interesting....

I like it so far and I think I'm going to read the book series as well.

[frannyr]

I finished all 3 episodes. I like it and it's becoming clearer what's going on but wow with the town mentality and public executions.

I have always loved Matt Dillon like since the Outsiders. Also it's a great cast with actors I've loved in other stuff - Shannyn Sossaman, Melissa Leo (her as a nurse is the creepiest I think), Juliette Lewis, Terrance Howard and Reed Diamond.

I loved the books, but I'm nervous about how the show will be. I have them recorded but haven't watched yet.

We have been watching them this weekend. I was ok with it until this ,ost recent episode where I thought, omg Lost all over again. I am really hoping it stays an interesting story and doesn't get "dumb."

Yeah I agree. I hope this last episode wasn't a sign of a terrible turn.

What's it about? I may read the books, my personal Fox ban is still in effect.

[sherbanator]

I'm watching it and in interested enough to keep watching it. I haven't read the books so I'm not sure how weird it's going to get.

A secret service agent is investigating the disappearance of two fellow agents a few weeks prior and ends up after a car accident in the town of Wayward Pines. He's seemingly unable to contact the outside world (messages to his wife go to vm) and unable to leave. Time also seems to pass very differently for some of the people in WP.

Sounds interesting, I just ordered the book for my Kindle.  Thanks!
