FOX's Wayward Pines starring Matt Dillion, Melissa Leo, Carla Gugino Terrance Howard, Shannyn Sossam

The folks inside are well rested with high powered machine guns, and vastly outnumber them, whereas the 1st class should've been exhausted and depleted from running from Abbies. Man if you're gonna do that ****, do it right.

The first generation was in the Ark as if they knew it was going to happen :lol: :smh:. They were well armed too. The camera panned out on guns as well as food and water.

I assume it didn't all happen in one night. Remember the safe zone Pilcher set up for the 1st generation was well stocked and had mad guns.

They probably waited until the adults tried to take back the town from the abbies and then attacked. I imagine it went down in a pretty corny The Walking Dead sort of way.

Then they put the adults in stasis, cleaned up the town, and released the ppl from group C to start anew.

:rofl: :smh:

Like I said there was only so many ways this could've ended and M. Night hasn't changed. Son is the poor man's GRRM.
 
How did that leader kid from the 1st generation graduate survive after Matt Dillon shot him.

It didn't look like they patched the kid up. Would he not have bled out by the time he gets released

Buck shot spray probably aint get stuck in him or he had some medical attention before being put back in jail.

I thought he was dead when he was shot but given how it ended they needed an antagonist guy to lead the 1st generation with that crazy ideology.

Show is pretty good. Wish they got renewed already. Wanna see where this goes next.
I thought it was one in done. 10 ep limited series

Plus the way its formatted it might be anthology like. So whole new cast if a 2nd season is green lit.
 
Haven't read a single post in here on fear of spoilers, but what's the verdict on this show so far?

I loved it. I was hooked from the pilot. Spent the last weekend finishing it up. I felt each moment of each episode had me close to the edge of my seat. Cliffhangers at the end of each episode as well. The story makes you think overall on what you would personally do if you were in that situation. Highly recommend.
 
I just read an interview with M. Night about the show and it sounds like there'll be a S2.

So much for one and done. Thought this'd be like Gracepoint or at least an anthology like AHS and Fargo and yeah there'll mostly be a new cast in S2 but the familiar faces are a bunch of kids that piss me off looking at them (Ben, creepy gf, smug 1st generation president)

Thanks.  Will add it to my list.  
 
Just watched the pilot... yeah, I'm not trusting anyone!

I liked the ending. Especially after reading about the book ending.

It could have been handled much better but the first generation was being bred to take over and were given the supplies to do so. Pincher was right, his ideas would live on. These weirdos spent many, many years being told how special they were and that they would save the human race.

Second season could and should explain the takeover.
 
Episode 6 now... the Dr. laying out the "truth" to Ethan... still not buying it... the timeline's throwing me off a bit tho cuz the Dr. was talking on the phone to Ethan's partner a few episodes ago.  Hmmm...
 
Finished............................. wow....... what.............  did not see that coming. 
 
I enjoyed it... but when I started, no way did I see where this show was headed... sci-fi?!  Cryogenics, end of the world... and possibly time travel?   And for a long time, I didn't buy the concept that they were 2000 years ahead.  Hassler meeting with Pilcher threw me off, but I guess it happened before everything went to %&$#.

Found this on EW... should help...

1996:  At 30 years-old, a young David Pilcher (Toby Jones) discovers the human genome is changing due to our own destruction of the planet. He dedicates himself to finding a way to preserve humanity, to give us a second chance… in the future.

1997:  Pilcher sets up a lab and drops his inherited millions into researching suspended animation. At 31 years-old, Pilcher successfully suspends a rat. He begins fabricating suspension units for human beings. But he needs more money, more support, more people.

1998:  Pilcher tries to get people to follow him, but doesn’t find much support in the academic community. He begins focusing on people who are willing to leave their current lives behind for a better one in the future. People who can help him rebuild civilization. His “inner circle”. He finds a few. His sister Pamela Pilcher (Melissa Leo). A hypnotherapist named Megan Fisher (Hope Davis). A down-on-his luck security guard named Arnold Pope (Terrence Howard). And everyone who works in the eventual superstructure.

1998:  Meanwhile, Pilcher searches for a beautiful yet naturally walled-in town, a safe zone for humanity to reawaken. He discovers the real town of Wayward Pines, Idaho. He’ll need a lot of people to repopulate this town in the future. After all, they will be the last of humanity. But how many people would give up their lives and families to go into suspended animation without any guarantee of survival? Very few.

1999:  Arnold Pope begins abducting people. The first abductee is Dr. Charles Keen. Later, he abducts Beverly Brown (Juliette Lewis) who was in the town of Wayward Pines to sell Y2K software protection to the local school.

2000:  Theresa Burke (Shannyn Sossamon) gives birth to a son and drops out of training at the Secret Service, where she met her husband Ethan (Matt Dillon).

2001:  Peter McCall (Justin Kirk) attends a conference in Los Angeles. Has a drink with Pilcher’s sister Pam. He’s abducted that night.

2014:  Seattle. Ethan Burke and Kate Hewson (Carla Gugino), partners in the Secret Service, have an affair. Ethan is 45. Kate is 27.

September 2014:  Theresa learns about Ethan’s affair with Kate.

October 2014:  Kate transfers to the Boise field office.

October 12, 2014:  Kate Hewson and Bill Evans drive to Wayward Pines to investigate David Pilcher. It’s a fake name so they don’t know what he looks like, but they’ve been tracking financial records and too much money has been flowing in and out of Wayward Pines. Just outside of Wayward Pines, they get into a car crash.

October 15, 2014:  Three days later, Ethan Burke’s boss Adam Hassler (Tim Griffin) tells Ethan that Kate Hewson and Bill Evans are missing. Ethan is booked on a flight to Boise.

October 16, 2014:  Ethan Burke checks in with the Secret Service via email from Lowman, Idaho at 1:21 P.M. Ethan drives with Agent Stallings through the Boise National Forest to Wayward Pines. They get into a crash with a semi-truck. Stallings is killed in the crash. Pope carries Ethan away and puts him in suspended animation. The car is torched.

October 18, 2014:  The Secret Service inspects the recovered car. No sign of Ethan Burke.

October 20, 2014:  Hassler meets with David Pilcher. Wants to call it off. Too late.

Late October, 2014:  Someone in Pilcher’s inner circle gets a recording of Theresa’s home answering machine message.

October 22-23, 2014: Theresa and Ben drive to Boise. They track Ethan to a town called Wayward Pines. Hassler alerts Pilcher. Theresa and Ben are pulled over by Arnold Pope, who cuts the car’s break line. They later (offscreen) get into a car crash, are abducted by Pope, and put into suspended animation.

December 31, 2014:  Everyone in the inner circle goes into their suspended animation chambers, including David Pilcher (now 48) and his sister Pam.

By 2514:  According to Pilcher’s projections, the entire human race will be extinct.

4014:  Pilcher comes out of suspension along with most of the members of his inner circle. The group surveys the wreckage of the town and the world after 2,000 years. They see an abby for the first time. They build the electrified fence. They start to rebuild the town.

4016:  After two years, the town is rebuilt. Pilcher brings the first group of abductees, Group A, out of suspended animation. There is a ribbon-cutting ceremony on Main Street. He tells them the truth. Most don’t believe him. 26 escape and are killed by abbies. Those who do believe him commit suicide. The rules are changed. The adults can’t know the truth. Anyone who doesn’t follow the rules will be killed. Kill one to save the rest of the last of humanity.

October 14, 4016:  Kate Hewson is brought out of suspension. She’s still 27 (you don’t age during suspended animation). She thinks it’s 2014.

October, 4017:  One year later, Kate marries Harold Ballinger (Reed Diamond).

April, 4027: Bill Evans is brought out of suspension.

October 21, 4027:  Beverly Brown is brought out of suspension. She thinks it’s 1999 because that’s her last memory. Pope takes her to the Biergarten and tells her she’s a bartender there.

October 6, 4028:  Bill Evans tries to escape. He’s caught and murdered via public reckoning on Main Street. His body is placed in the house at 604 First Avenue.

October 16, 4028:  Ethan Burke is brought out of suspension and placed in the forest on the outskirts of town. He wakes up, bruised and bloodied from his car accident.
 
Too much money on the table not to drop another season...even if it sucks.:lol:
Really? I don't know about that :lol: This show didn't seem like a ratings hit.

Especially when I look at the other shows FOX has given the green light. They're beginning to waste money just like NBC on bad new shows. They've gotten desperate and are now bringing back old hits (24, The X-Files, Prison Break, etc.)
 
Just finished watching last night, had it on the dvr for months. show was great up until the end.



A thought...the video system that theresa found...how old were those videos? they said they were from all over the country....the world was in ruins and abbies were everywhere....but I thought pilcher was the only one with survivors? So he was letting people out into the world? The agent was in san fran in his vid. wtf. how were people able to travel cross country? and in what if wayward had all the vehicles?

the son's gf looks like bruno mars. look at her and try not to see bruno now. you're welcome.

wife looks like thicker brie bella

matt dillon has a stupid face. son face been dumb as hell looking since something about mary

m. night blows.

show pulled back the curtain early af.

most states in the country are against capital punishment, pilcher was trying to build a society with the notion that public executions for talking is acceptable? da ****? foh b. son on that stalin ****.

i hated the nurse early in the show, but she's alright with me now.

Terrance howard must've needed some quick cash, dude was in what, 3 episodes? eating ******* rocky road lol. bama ***.
 
I'm solely going off memory of a show I feel like I last saw 3months ago.

I think those vids of ppl were of those who escaped from the town and got killed. When they said it's like this all around the world, just thought they meant the abbies. It's also possible some of these vids aren't recent but right after the abbies started appearing.

If not then Pilcher been lying about being the genius with a vision.

:smh: What has been seen can not be unseen. Wasn't in to her but yeah the gf look like Bruno Mars. It's those eyes :lol: :x Creepy.

:rofl: @ Pilcher trying to be stalin
