But not Zelda, Zelda needs to come back. And the dog. Diabetes lesbian can stay dead though.

Just watched the episode, a little late to the party, but Holy poo poo! I haven't laughed this much in a long time. The kitchen scene was something special. Pans flying by wires, metal shelf conveniently blocking the only way out (nevermind that silly window). Oven slowly stalking them, obviously completely undodgeable in that large area! Then Jim with his "Shut up and be dead, I'm busy!" line. I had to pause I was laughing so hard. Also, why didn't their giant counter-magnet have any effect on anything near it? The acting and writing was so bad, I was expecting a Sharknado to come out of nowhere and for Barbie to pick up hedge trimmers and dynamite to battle it.

Holy poo poo this show is really going out strong to try and outshine itself from last year. I love how selective the dome was with pulling magnetic poo poo. Not the contraction thing, but when they were actively being dragged by handcuffs right next to the dome the metal wirefence right next to them is unaffected or the watches on their hands or the buckles in their belt or...

Big Jim must have some strong neck. Also, I've read this thread before watching and was joyous the redhead died, but alas, she isn't called Linda.

Twee as gently caress posted:Yeah they made that super obvious Are you saying that Junior's mom had sex with her own brother? (His last name was Boudreau, not Rennie) Oh man, how could I have forgotten how loving terrible this show is. It just got more and more retarded as it went. - Magnetism strong enough to pull nails out of the wall, but not effect the belt buckles, jean rivets or jewelry anyone was wearing - The one ethnic character being smooshed only to be immediately replaced with another - 4 grenades exploding the moment the pin is pulled and having an explosion no larger than a firework - "SHUT UP AND BE DEAD!" - Building a giant electromagnet in mere minutes - Barbie returning sans handcuffs demanding they build said magnet and no one questions it, despite the fact they were about to hang him earlier - The mother inexplicably not being dead - AXE MURDER (I guess the dome wanted them to stop murdering each other, because it was getting in the way of the dome's own murder plans?) - Let's not hold Big Jim accountable for any of his murders or anything... I like how they didn't even come close to explain what the gently caress happened at the end of last season. Why did she throw the egg in the lake? Why did that cause pink starts to fly up and magnetize the dome? Seriously what the gently caress. And we're about to his episode 2 of season 2 and they're JUST NOW going to address the scarcity of supplies? MAYBE YOU SHOULD HAVE THOUGHT ABOUT THAT EARLIER AND NOT ALLOWED THE LOCAL BUSINESSES TO GOUGE YOUR CITIZENS IN A TIME OF CRISIS! I can't wait to watch/hate this every week.

Oh my loving God. I just watched the premiere and I don't know if I can do this, guys. Like, I really liked early season 1 but I said months ago that the S1 finale was the worst season finale I've ever seen, but WOW. Some of the line deliveries in this episode ("SHUT UP AND BE DEAD" and "GET THE NAIL OUT OF MY HAND" followed by "I THINK THE DOME IS PULLING IT OUT OF MY HAND" especially) made me just shake my head, Like, the thing about the nail thing is dude, a NAIL JUST SHOT THROUGH YOUR loving HAND. At least try to sound pained. gently caress me. I've never seen something on a major network that seemed as much like a fan film or something before.

Still, this is Stephen King so I'm guessing that it's definitely in the realm of possibilities. I mean why would they cast a man to play his uncle that looks like it could actually be the actor's actual dad? quote:- Let's not hold Big Jim accountable for any of his murders or anything... Outside of Barbie, Julia and Junior, does anyone even know he murdered all of those people?

UTD rivals The Following in terms of hatewatchability, but it's not endlessly depressing and grimdark like The Following. It's got a pretty special place in my heart right now. I mean, I forget about most shows 15 minutes after I watch them but I'm still chuckling about Linda getting squashed and Dumb DJ Guy being the sheriff now for no apparent reason

Now that the Dome is manifesting and ordering people around it can only get better. I want some sort of anti-Dome aliens to pop in and try to convince the people the fight back against the dome. At this point I don't even care about the origin of the dome. poo poo, start bringing back dead people like in The Returned just to gently caress with the town.

Hanging out on this lovely show, I think the guy just needs to call it quits. Especially when how ridiculous his Gollum look is compared to Britt's, "sup?" look. Don't let this lovely show fool you. His novels have actually been gradually getting better since Duma Key. Call Me Charlie fucked around with this message at 01:21 on Jul 5, 2014 |

So the episode ends with an out-of-nowhere axe murder, ok. And Big Jim is not going to be able to follow the not killing new rule, he will start experiencing withdrawal symptoms if he doesn't get his per episode fix.

GreenNight posted:The book has Junior banging corpses so at least they didn't go there. Yeah, they went a lot more subtle then King did, especially with the Rennies. Even Big Jim seems to have a conscious most of the time, and when he does kill, he believes it's for the good of the town. He can back down. In the book he was incapable of that. And Junior is less "brain tumor crazy psycho killer" then "influenced by the Dome and monomanically in love with Angie. As hokey as the show can be at times, I think it has the potential to rise above it's source material. I'd like to see more of what goes on outside the Dome. Though with Junior's mother we may get just that. I'd love to see the people on the outside do what they did with Barbie's military background in the book.
