I'm not paying a huge amount of attention but is the son actually dead? Really didn't expect that.

I hope everyone dies and the show turns into a sitcom about a family of abbies.

Them setting abbies on fire and waving flamethrowers around directly in front of the critical field of food was one of the funniest things I've seen on TV in a while. Then they had like 6 guys picking an entire field in the middle of the night and somehow end up with 4 trucks full of corn and apples. Those are some drat good pickers, especially in gas masks and wearing gloves and poo poo. I'm not really clear on how the Abbies actually killed off all of humanity. Or did we do it to ourselves environmentally and the abbies are just what is left over after everyone died of heat stroke or something? I can't say they really feel like much of an existential threat. I wonder how long it'll be before we have a plotline about another group of survivors that have been living underground or whatever. Not quite hate-watching this show yet but man is it not great.

He somehow is surviving outside the gate and you think he will be able to sneak back in during the harvest but nope, killed by three abbies. Not really sure what his mom's role will be now.

It would have been great if one of the burning abbies ran into the field and burned all of their crops.

Yeah there were shots with grim faced in-charge man squinting at a burning corpse like 2 feet away from the rows of corn but apparently it's fine to just let them sit there and roast. I mean, you can't control fire so why even bother trying?

I can't say they really feel like much of an existential threat. From what I remember from the first season, humanity devolved into Abbies after wrecking the planet. The people of Wayward Pines were frozen for a couple millennia, so they're that far behind in "evolving" to be the same.

I feel reading about the trainwreck that is season 2 is much preferable to watching it.

lmaoooooo they killed Muppet. He was actually the most likeable guy on the show once he went all insurgent, but he just gives himself up? Then gets kicked out of town. Then he tries to get back in by asking a guy. Then he walks around for a bit. Then he dies. Why was ANY of that necessary to show? Was that one abbie running off into the night at the end supposed to be him??

Slowly they will kill off all the remaining Season 1 cast over the next few episodes. At least the doctor is somewhat attempting to question why the Hitler Youth is in charge.

The mom was super obnoxious. Yelling and screaming is a sure way to get your way, or get hung.

It's not like she has anything to lose, as far as she knows the town has taken her husband and her son. So why not make as big of a scene as possible so the dictatorial leadership can't just sweep you under the rug?

SteveVizsla posted:Because evolution only takes two thousand years for people to go from humans to that, right? I don't think they said it was evolution but a widespread genetic disorder caused by pollution. The funniest thing about the Abbies is how they're still blurring out the butts. Like, maybe figure out another way to do that? Anyway, season 2 continues to be not very good. Mostly in how everything that is happening feels super pointless, especially with how they've been consistently killing off season 1 characters.

Yeah, it's like "ok, here's all the people that survived Season 1. Now they'll come back for an episode and IMMEDIATELY DIE".

I got about halfway through the first episode and quit. Lazy, lazy, lazy. Too many good shows to waste my time on this.

Anybody still watching this? The last two episodes have been a great combo of campy with some serious potential. Every time somebody owns the former teacher/hypnotherapist--GOLD Wayward Pines: The Musical? GOLD The board game guide to sex in the "Reproduction Chamber" with Pilcher's face glowering down? GOLD Also some cool serious stuff with the possibility that Abbies are intelligent and have a culture. The Doctor is seriously cool. I'm digging how he rages against the machine. I also liked the "Good Morning Citizens of Wayward Pines" address; reminded me of "The Prisoner."

I think it's more of a female dominated hivemind, complete with psychic communication and control than a culture.

yeah those baldies can't overrun that wall fast enough. My guess is the abbies fill the town and start killing everyone but doctor man throws himself in front of hitler jr's bullet when he tries to shoot the queen and the abby attacks stop.

NmareBfly posted:This show really makes me root for the extinction of all humanity as a finale. Same. The decision to have maybe one likable and trustworthy character per season is not paying dividends the way I think they want it to. Also that we now objectively know that the Abbies are the wronged party and their actions are wholly justified - if not heroic - makes the mission of the show irreparably garbled.

Looking through IMDB, it seems we still have Arlene and Adam Hassler! Seriously though, top 10 characters by episode count on IMDB. The body count on this show is amazing. Arlene Moran (13 episodes, 2015-2016) Jason Higgins (12 episodes, 2015-2016).. Dr. Theo Yedlin (10 episodes, 2016)

I'm really enjoying this season. The new leading man is perfect, no muss, no fuss. Just woke up from a nice 2000 year long sex dream, to a hideous nightmare. Get's to work unfucking everything.

Echoing that I didn't think this was a good enough show to pull off a legit good ep. Though with how long it's taken to get here I can't imagine a satisfying conclusion that isn't the Abbies swarming the town in triumph.

Yeah I liked this episode a lot. I always assumed the town was somehow preserved but it looks like they literally started from scratch. Proto Abby was neat too but the way he was dressed and the things he said it was like society only recently started going to poo poo, or was several years in. But he was partially changed and the video feeds suggest things went dark much earlier. Curious if there's more to that or if they just wanted a kinda handsome sympathetic guy.

It was an interesting episode but man, everything with the Abbies really should have been happening earlier in this season. Especially with how quickly the introduced and then dropped the whole "resistance" thing.

Especially with how quickly the introduced and then dropped the whole "resistance" thing. Yeah the Smart Abbies and the Resistance should have been woven together, but now it's revealed Abbies were there first and know the layout/storm drain system so people with an inside knowledge of the town geography aren't important now. Maybe it will be revealed Muppet got swarmed by those 3 abbies but was saved by the Queen and he is helping them. Probably not though seems like they are dead set on wiping out the entire first season cast.
