Well since they didn't show a body she could still be alive. Even if she is dead I totally expect her to be brought back to life with "dome magic" since she's one of the 4 chosen ones or whatever.

Apparently I can't resist watching a show this loving terrible. I didn't think it could get worse, but somehow it did! My favorite part was probably the science teacher responding to Barbie's "We need to move everyone" by pointing at the school and saying, "Right here. To the school. Where we are." as if no one else in the room with her realized that they were at the school. Worst written show I have ever seen. And also the incredibly selective magnetism, Joe's insanely wooden acting (how the gently caress did this kid get hired?), and just about everything else. Ugh. Just so bad, but can't look away!

1) If the dome is a sphere, and the sphere's surface is magnetized, would anything inside even feel a difference, since the pull is uniform and counters each other, like being at the center of the earth? 2) I thought the point of the drop in a gallows is to break the hangee's neck at the stop? I don't think cutting the rope afterwards would do much except to get the dead body out of the way. 3) I liked when the bar lady put the trash in the cans. So they still have regular trash pickup, nice! 4) I love the new major characters out of nowhere. Where were they hiding? 5) It looks like they are setting up the 'faith in the dome' vs. Science. LOST anyone? PowerBuilder3 fucked around with this message at 14:13 on Jul 7, 2014 |

I don't think cutting the rope afterwards would do much except to get the dead body out of the way. Well for the neck to break during the drop it would depend on two things: the length of the drop and the person's neck (how much fat/muscle, tense or relaxed, etc...). Since these people had never built gallows before I could imagine that it was more akin to someone hanging himself by kicking a chair from under him than an actual gallow. Possibly, 'Big' Jim lived up to his name. Probably a little bit of Column A, a little bit from Column B

I actually find it loving fascinating how little regard this show has for its audience. Like, I'm used to shows treating their audiences like idiots. That's fine and all, but this show just consistently goes out of its way to explain and re-explain things. I can never remember anyone's name on this show, but the scene in the first season where the kid leads the journalist lady out to the minidome was one of the most jaw droppingly stupid exposition dumps I've ever seen on TV. You have to be actively trying to waste your audience's time to come up with something like that.

You have to be actively trying to waste your audience's time to come up with something like that. Exactly. And you have to be a complete idiot, or just not paying attention at all to not understand what's happening most of the time. When they're building the "electromagnet", and Joe (the kid) is like, "Do you really think this electromagnet will help to counteract the blah blah blah..." This happens less than five minutes after that plan was conceived. It did not need to be recapped. It's no wonder the cast seems so bored all the time. I want to think it's CBS' fault more than the writers, but I think it's probably an equal share of blame.

Combat Pretzel posted:Inverse square law applies. As soon you deviate from the center of a sphere where there's a magnetic/gravitational pull generated on the outer layer of it, it'll pull you towards the direction you're biased to. It's zero for gravity http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/mechanics/sphshell2.html - so I guess it should be for magnetism too? It's been a long time since I did any physics.

Is Stephen King back on drugs? I can't see how else he's signing off on this. Then again, he's always been pretty weird about adaptations of his stuff. I like how the school teacher is always writing something in a notebook, that lets you know some science is happening

Someone really needs to make a reel showcasing the acting talents of this show, especially for DJ Sheriff. Edit: Big Jim's brother is also pretty outstanding. He seems to struggle with just pronouncing the words in his dialog.

When did the diner become usable again? And didn't we already have a bout food shortage? My first thought seeing those pigs last episode was how the hell did those pigs survive. And when did a school suddenly become under the dome? That would have been a good place to use during all of the medical issues...

Also, since when is the red haired chick a forensic scientist? And the description for next week's episode mentions "acid rain". That's not what acid rain is, assholes! It's not literally acid falling from the sky!

Illinois Smith posted:My favorite thing was DJ Cop suddenly talking entirely in police jargon when she confronts him about arresting Mystery Girl. That was so funny. As was him wearing the cop uniform. There are what, three people on this police force in a town where everyone knows everyone? Seems like uniforms wouldn't really be required. Hell, why even bother with badges? Oh right, so the audience remembers who is a cop and who isn't. Also, I loved that the plane was completely covered in giant cobwebs after two weeks of sitting there. And of course that the show had to explicitly state that he switched to the reserve tank even though it was 100% obvious. "What just happened? It's like I have extra fuel and can now safely land..." says the man who just got done talking about how he's flown hundreds of missions. Cpt.
