Under the Dome

I watched all seasons, season 1 was nice. The pace was very slow, but on the edge of tolerable. You could compare it with Lost. The progression of the episodes was logical, how about air, food, water etc? Then season 2 came, some key players disappeared and the book of tricks was necessary to fill in the gaps. This decision did the story not much good. Than season 3 appeared, broke with the first seasons by introducing some sf nonsense and the burden of a artificial created memory. The biggest fail in season 3 however is the introduction of new characters that impossible could have been there all the time. This mixed with the by now stupid story makes you want to skip this series as soon as possible. My advise, watch season 1, try 2 and stop then.

Soo... The first season was pretty good: entertaining, with and interesting topic and relatable characters. I taught that the problems of being under a dome could have been better exploded, but still, the first season was good. Then the second season came, and it was soooo good. I really truly love that season, it was so intense, action-packed and I had all the feels! So after the second season, my hopes were pretty up. When I started the third season, I was so sad the show was canceled... until I actually watched the third season. In it's last season, the show turns ridiculous, and so damn confusing; but not confusing in the good way, I mean confusing like: "I don't understand a sh¡t, let's go watch something else." And I just don't know why to build a good plot in two solid seasons, to throw it all to the trash in the third one. I think the writers were in drugs or something when they wrote the last season; otherwise, I don't see how they could screw it up so badly.

I the series gets a 6 because it started out pretty good, but is barely hanging on in my opinion. I'm an avid Stephen King reader, but had not read this book yet. After 5 or 6 episodes, the story seemed to have too many side plots that didn't seem to have anything to do with the main plot of how the dome came about so bought the book (2 part) and couldn't put it down. I only occasionally watch the series since reading the book - mainly out of curiosity to see how it is progressing. I just can't see how they will drag e series on for more than another season and keep the viewer's interest, especially with the slow pace and all the time spent on side plots. This should have been a three or four part mini-series like what was done with King's "The Stand." I enjoyed that book AND the mini-series.

How the hell is this show gets worse and worse? How is this possible? And with an outline by Mr. King? With an amazing plot like that? How?

Even though I am a very busy person I spend almost every free time watching TV shows.Yeah, kinda sad. But that's my thing and I am happy so... I watch TV series varies all kind of genre and topic from sleepy hollow to the good wife or from major crimes to being human OK? I rate them, like them OK or don't like them sometimes because you know, not everything is for everyone right? But... Under the dome? This is certainly my kind of thing however I am having a really hard time loving it.

OK let's start. Acting couldn't be any worse. And those actors, we saw them before right, they were good no? Even the camera angels irritates me sometimes and the show is all over the place, it seems like they can't keep it together. The writing is childish and the dialogs can not convince or satisfy anyone who has a little bit of drama taste. And don't get me started on the special effects. Please, do they think it's OK to have that bad CGI or something with a show like that? And the last but not least, the music. It is so bad, sometimes I wish that they just do it without it. It would be radical but it could actually be better.

Especially since the second season started, it gets worse and worse. The only good thing still is the plot. And I badly want to like the show so please, I am begging the producers now (like would they read that but hell) do something and do it fast!

An invisible impenetrable dome descends upon the small town of Chester's Mill, Maine. The residents inside struggle to survive and discover the cause. Big Jim (Dean Norris) is the bully businessman trying to take charge. His son Junior is completely unstable. Julia Shumway (Rachelle Lefevre) is a local reporter who falls for mysterious Barbie (Mike Vogel). Norrie Calvert-Hill is the daughter of a lesbian couple who got caught while traveling through town.

This is a great premise from Stephen King. As long as it deals with the characters struggling with each other to survive, this TV show works great. When it tries to explain the dome, the show stumbles. Then it goes into that explanation where all those episode are fake memories. It's a bad move but the show couldn't write a good explanation anyways. It starts off as an 8 but it keeps sliding all the way to the end.
