TV: Under The Dome

[RoyalShock]

Did anyone else watch the first season which ended this past Monday? If so, what did you think?

I've been watching. It's strange in that I don't think it's a great show, not that it's a bad one either, but it leaves you with enough to wonder about and tease you with that it keeps you coming back. At least that's how I and a co-worker have felt about it. I think it's gotten better since the beginning, but...I'm having a hard time truly expressing myself on this. It constantly presents you with questions and situations that keep you engaged and wanting to find out what the answers are or if you're right about what happens next. If any of that makes any sense.

I am looking forward to seeing what happens next summer.

Has anyone read the Stephen King story?

Has anyone read the Stephen King story?

That I have not done. My co-workers boyfriend has and says that the show deviates from the story quite a bit, but the general principle is the same/similar.

I actually enjoyed the 'hokey' series and some of the characters...

Ha!

"As I’ve already said, there’s no way I’ll ever watch this show again. Sitting through its thirteen episodes has been a learning experience, and in the end amusing in that “I’ve lost all hope” kind of way, but ultimately this was the biggest TV circle-jerk I’ve ever been privy to since ABC’s The River."

This surprised me; guess who?

IMO, one of the 'weaker' characters in the series and a below average actress.

Who cares, right? :)
