The season premiere literally picks up where Season 1
HTML http://pennycan.createaforum.com/dvd's-blu-rays/under-the-dome-(season-1-2013)-2686/msg29869/#msg29869<br
/>left off at, with the fate of Barbie in the hands of Junior
and
Big Jim as the Pink Stars light up the sky. I thought that scene
was pretty cool, but that was Season 1. What was going to happen
here? Of course Barbie would be spared as he is the moral
compass of the show. Sure, he's got a secret past, but he's the
one you are rooting for. So, does anyone die in this one? Yup.
So goodbye to Linda. I like Natalie Martinez as an actress,
especially in CSI: NY. But in this one, I hated her character.
She was frustrating to watch because of the countless stupid
things she would fall prey to. So, I wasn't upset that they
killed her off.
However, I was surprised that they killed off Angie at the
end....or so it would seem. I think she is a goner. Axe. Swing.
Yelling. Blood. Yeah. She's gone. Nice addition of Eddie Cahill
(also of CSI: NY fame) and Sherry Stringfield. Nice twist
showing that Junior's mother is not only alive and well, but is
living outside of the dome and is able to communicate through
"telepathy"? It's odd.....but still entertaining. Nice cameo
from Stephen King.

This episode felt kind of rickety, like it had lost its legs or
something. So, we are to believe that in a day or two (counting
backwards to the Season Finale of last season), that both Joe
and Norrie would willing sleep at Big Jim's house as his
permanent guests, including Norrie's mother he was physically
manhandled off her own property by BJ's goons. The same man that
was willing to torture them to get the location of the egg? The
same man they knew to be a killer of men.....and women. Now he
is making breakfast for them? Okay, I can buy all the
supernatural stuff, but THIS character change in everyone, I can
not. Not feeling the new Science Teacher chick. Don't think
she's a good actress at all.

Ugh. This season is going to be torture as long as the Science
Teacher remains. She is a HORRIBLE actress. I thought Junior was
bad, but she makes him look like Sir Anthony Hopkins. I can't
stand how she over emotes here scenes. I expect this from High
Schooler's and younger, but not from someone that is getting
paid to act on a network series. With that said, there was a
good reveal at the end between Sam and Lyle (Dwight Yoakam).
Looks like there is something deeper about the Chumley's and the
Rennie's family tree and their connection to each other.
Speaking of Yoakam, I've seen him a lot of movie's over the
years and not once did he ever sing anything. Well, that changed
with this one and it was perfect and organic in how it comes
about. Throw a man in jail and let him wail as he's feeling the
blues.

I wonder if the series is taking everything from the source
material, because it seems like they are making sh*t up this
season as they go along. It's really getting convoluted with the
back story involving the 4 kids from 20 years earlier having
found the meteor and egg and how it plays in with the current
story. Still can't stand Junior and I especially hate the
Science Teacher. If said it before and I'll say it again, they
are horrible actors. So far, this season is very flat. Last
season, as absurd as it was, it was entertaining. Not so much 4
episodes in.

I'm losing interest in this show. This season is nothing like
the first. It seems to be less about the Dome and more about a
town falling part and turning on each other. Season 1 was very
much rooted in the supernatural. Season 2 is more like a bad
episode of one of those 'End of Days' reality shows. Only
interesting thing that happened is this very boring episode was
the revelation that there was some never ending tunnel on the
other side of the High School locker.

See... that's what you get when there is not a long range plan
on these series. The stories deviate because of no well thought
out direction. Let's throw stuff against the wall and see what
sticks.
Under the Dome is a well thought out story with beginning,
middle and end. The playbook is right there. But studio's think
they can do better. They go after the money, blinding them to
what makes the story good.
Lost was proposed as a one season project. I just read The
Leftovers, much of the story is created on the fly. I would bet
they have thought very little of the next season. This kind of
information just makes me cringe.

Oh hum. More of the same. Sure, the kids found the egg and they
touched it and pink starts filled the room. Big whoop. It took
maybe a minute of screen time total. The rest was devoted to a
town battling another 'Mother of all weather' disaster upon them
and yet again.....thwart it. Dude, give me some real danger on
the show instead of this 'save at the 11th hour' routine they
have going. With that said, I did like that the tunnel behind
the locker became and even BIGGER tunnel that ends at a
bottomless pit. And no, I highly doubt that Sam is dead....even
if he did throw himself into said pit.

Sh*t just got interesting! It's about time they did something
different and break away from the 'town in chaos' episodes,
which has been tiresome for quite some time now. So, I nailed it
in my assumption in my previous post that Sam wasn't dead. Not
only was he not, he was alive and well.....outside the dome!
Yep, the tunnel is some kind of portal that allows anyone that
goes into the abyss to come out the other side in the town
adjacent to the dome. So, Barbie is now outside as well, looking
for help from his dad in getting "back to the dome". Really not
sure where this is going, but at least it's got my attention
again. I just hope the writers don't squander this opportunity
here.

They kinda took a step back with this episode. Back to familiar
territory as the focus is back on the towns people of Chester's
Mill. It also doesn't bode well with the introduction of the
Hacker who is a horrible acting. I don't know who he is, but he
sucks. So, this series has the 3 worst actors on prime time tv
under one roof....or the dome if you will. ;D Seriously, who
the f*ck is the casting director for the series? He or she
should be fired. Anyway, with that said, everything that is
happening with Barbie is still worth watching because I don't
know where it's going. But I did suspect that Barbie's dad has
something to do with the Dome coming down.
