Wayward Pines

Season 1 was awesome and it probably should just have been a limited series or extended the source material through multiple seasons. Excellent actors and was awesome to see Matt Dillon killing it again. Second season was utter garbage. Terrible writing and acting. I'd give season 1 an 8 and season 2 a 5 so it's pretty generous giving it a 7 overall.

The first season is an awesome affair, we follow Ethan Burke (Matt Dillon) as the secret service agent who goes to the small town Wayward Pines in Idaho to search for his missing colleagues. I found especially the first episodes very intriguing. What I really liked is that I noticed that I changed who to "cheer" for several times during the season as the story developed. The story was very good, my only complaint was that I thought some reveals came a little bit too soon. I think it would have been even more suspenseful if we as an audience got to wait for some answers. Matt Dillon was awesome in the lead, Juliette Lewis is, as always great, and so are Matt Dillons character's son, the actor Charlie Tahan. For some reason I always come to think of Bruce Campbell (Evil Dead) every time when I see Matt Dillon and Lisa Bonet (Cosby Show, Enemy of the State) every time I see Shannyn Sossamon who plays Matt Dillons wife.

So the Second season, talk about crash and burn. Soap opera dialogues and intrigues. No actors with any charisma whatsoever. And I caught myself thinking that I don't really care what's happening to any of these characters.

I was blown away by the first season, thought provoking and fun, but the second season ruined it for me; I couldn't even watch more than 3 episodes

The first season of this show was absolutely great. I must admit I didn't have a clue what was going on (1st season) and not knowing made me watch even more. The 1st season was great it had you guessing in parts and wondering if what people was been told was true. Now the 2nd season was a major disappointment it felt rushed but also was dragging at the same time the story of season 2 was rubbish and just seems like power had gone to everyone head.

Based off the picture on hulu representing the show I had no idea what the show is about, however, there were people in some sort of suits that look like space suits; they weren't spacesuits I guess? This show keeps you guessing each time if you're gonna watch an episode by episode on a certain day or whatever; but if you binge it, it's kind of the same it keeps you guessing; I kept changing whose side I was on and also like even though people are bringing up the political aspect of it, which is very very apparent. This is also very much a sci-fi show that WHERE YOU DON'T NEED TO CARE AT ALL ABOUT POLITICS I SWEAR TO GOD.... I'm a regular person who's always searching for a show that finds itself bin but also like just plain watchable? I found it in this show. Also take everything I said with a grain of salt because I didn't even leave any spoilers. I just left some of my assumptions from what I originally thought.
