Wayward Pines

How are people liking it? It pushes my paranoia and conspiracy buttons nicely, though I'm a little concerned that they dropped the big twist a little early. We'll see how they can keep the momentum now that a lot of questions have been answered.

Five episodes are out so far, and can be seen on Hulu if you're in the US.

Liked the first episode (also on Hulu), will definitely watch the rest eventually.

So, season 2 is out. Only saw the premiere so far.

I really liked the first season, but I have to say the Sudden Downer Ending was... not elegantly handled. I get that the First Generation had the most resources so they were better prepared to seize control, but it still seemed a bit forced. Especially since Jason by all rights should've been freaking dead.

Second season certainly started with a bang. Killing Kate and Ruby right out of the gate was interesting, and I liked how Yedlin being kept in the dark made sense considering Jason was planning on killing him anyway. I was practically yelling at the screen "why are you keeping him in the dark? That is not a long-term solution!" but given his plan, it made sense. I still think the plan is stupid ( getting rid of a capable doctor, which must be valuable, when all you have are First Generation residents who are "almost ready" is madness), but at least I get why he did what he did.

Funny how he doesn't want "another Ethan Burke" when he went and basically did everything he could to replicate the events of Burke's arrival. Similar-looking guy in profession where he works to save people (to the point my girlfriend thought Ethan was alive from the ads), who also has marital troubles, bringing him back but keeping him in the dark, and a significant woman from his past is already in WP and has been for a while.
