Back to her day job at Applebees? I dunno. Haven't seen this last week's yet.

I think it was cause the writers didn't have room for her in the A story and the B one wouldn't have happened if she was there. So lazy writing. You'll see.

This show has become an unbelievably terrible mess. It truly is case of "What the fuck are they thinking?!"

I have to agree. It was a stupid idea but with a cink of potential...now? it's a total squeaking mess

and that is probably why it'll be huge.

Who is doing the make-up on this show? Young Setrakian looked hilarious in the last episode.

Why do I keep watching this every week?

I bet they still win an Emmy or something for this shit. Middle aged Abraham's make up was hilarious.

Well, I think that's it for me. That finale was fucking garbage, as expected. I don't think I'll be tuning in for season two. Too bad; this show had potential.

Up and down all season. Not sure about season 2 myself. The books were cool, but I am not sure what exactly there looking to do with the show. There were so many things they left out that would have made the finale so good. They didn't go into the master at all and how he became who he is and they didn't mention a key item to take him down that Abraham does know about.

Ugh, this started out with so much potiental and a great pilot. I didn't think it was as bad as many of you for a while but the episodes after the convience store one I changed my mind too.

I was flipping through the channels tonight and realized that this show basically stole its creatures from Resident Evil, right? Resident Evil: Retribution was on and one of the infecteds had a Tremors-like worm coming out of it's mouth.
