Loved Lost and so far love this, although this is closer to The Wilds imo.

Open Source Idiom posted:Oh man, I loved The Wilds -- I think it's better than this show, sorry to say (and I like Yellowjackets!). Same. I can totally see why people wouldn't like it though, it lacks much of the brutality of Yellowjackets I felt sorry for Jeff as he just got bombarded by bad news after bad news

yeah Jeff stock has skyrocketed after that i don't really have any predictions for the season finale but i hope when they do the mask reveal it's a bunch of characters we've never seen before

Comrade Fakename posted:It’s pretty funny that a show all about how how a group of impressionable people can hype themselves up into believing in supernatural events is inspiring the same reaction in much of its viewership. I mean the fire in the plane was definitely filmed in a way to make it seem like it was something strange

D34THROW posted:I actually really, really liked how we were set up to expect some crazy poo poo with Shauna and Jackie, like Shauna personally butchered Jackie like she did to Adam and/or took the first bite or some poo poo. (I'm inclined to think she handled the butcher's work in general, both human and animal). Nope, she just blames herself for Jackie dying of exposure and I can't say I blame her. Yeah that was probably my favourite part of the season finale, we were probably overdue some basic survival deaths anyway

Starks posted:Yeah they could have all had the same necklace or something instead of those stupid clothes. I still thought it was a cool reveal, seems like next season will have an actual antagonist. There was also the flashback to the child that screamed in the car and made the parents avoid a crash

I rewatched the bear combusting scene and it really is just insane. The bear bursts into flames, Laura looks at it in disbelief and confusion, the plane continues flying and sounding the same until it explodes outta nowhere Have production commented on it? it's like the single thing I want to know

AceOfFlames posted:There's been some interview where the creators have said "yeah, when we said we have a five season plan, it's only because Showtime requires that for every pitch* so we definitely don't aim to drag things out. We can even end the show early if we want" oh wow that's huge. i kinda just assumed that there's no way the show can stay super grounded if they're doing 5 seasons of it

Yeah same pretty much. The mysteries in this show pale in comparison to Lost, like compare the first seasons of both shows.

Henchman of Santa posted:The writers thought it would look cool/be more symbolic if the bear was the first thing visibly wrong. I really think that’s all. has that been confirmed?

i think i already said this but the bear is either the production crew not really thinking about the situation or magic. and the fact there was an issue with people examining the letters probably means its the former

clown shoes posted:Whenever there is something unexplainable, it's always best to assume a wizard did it. Haven't y'all ever seen Star Trek? well if wizards are involved then that should put to rest the argument of weather or not there's supernatural elements

Danzel Glovington posted:Even though this show seems to portray a realistic world, they could still create tension surrounding keeping the events of the crash secret in a hyper dramatic way and have that be enough, at least for me as a viewer. I also expect they'll have an even bigger reveal, but I can still see the whole turning into Jack from Lord of the Flies and covering it up thing being the main source of tension. There are other shows where cannibal rituals are used as pivotal traumatic events for main characters in ways that I think work well, and in those the cannibalism is a by-product of even more nastiness too (like all the rituals and Lord of the Flies stuff). The 100 got so good, I love how they constantly changed things up each season. I'm kinda expecting something similar from this show, obviously not as extreme but I don't think they can drag out the current setup for 4 more seasons without some big twists.

Dr. Yinz Ljubljana posted:I enjoyed the LOST experience once I sat with it years after the finale. The long game was revealed, they really went out of the way to explain some of the bigger mysteries. I don't get the hate, because I had a good time with it I loved the whole thing. For me it was always about the characters and their journeys

I AM GRANDO posted:Usually there would be no point in making supernatural stuff ambiguous if you weren’t going to leave the possibility open. Otherwise it’s hard to justify the time spent on it in the first place. True Detective, and they did it fantastically the plane explosion is not even remotely realistic but it remains to be seen if that's supernatural or they just wanted it to look cool with the self immolating teddy bear into death star explosion

fullroundaction posted:Thanks for the recaps! I made the mistake of starting a LOST rewatch podcast during last season’s break and my brain wants to keep remixing the two shows together. what podcast? echoing what others have said about the current day stuff especially the daughter side plot. getting strong Homeland vibes from that, just feels really unnecessary

Disposable Scud posted:I'm dropping it at this point. I was getting a nagging feeling I was watching trash now and its tipped over. It's not even the mystery box stuff either. This show is Ryan Murphy-tier. the condom thing was beyond dumb but ryan murphy tier is quite the call, his version of this show would already have aliens and government conspiracies

Laterite posted:they're desperate enough to revive both Weeds and Nurse Jackie, so, yeah, pretty dire. Weeds seriously? that's insane pretty good episode. I do agree with whomever said this isn't a mystery box show though, I think it had the potential to go that way but decided not to. really the only mysterious thing is who drew that symbol everywhere

fullroundaction posted:In the last episode they used a real phone number that you can call and text, and if you do you'll get a really creepy voicemail, some mystery texts, and go down a whole ARG rabbit hole with websites and all of the normal things that you'd expect. oh that's cool. honestly I would prefer it to be a full on mystery box and unexplainable things popping off, I love that stuff.

i still think its entertaining but the realism loving blasted out of the atmosphere with the adult timeline. like some of that was loony tunes level poo poo. no idea where it goes next but hopefully its just about Walter and Jeff next season other stuff was alright I guess? burning down the cabin felt a little excessive and unnecessary
