I read the book and didn't enjoy it as much as some of his others.  Maybe I'm tired of King or something. 

 

 

I thought the book was pretty cool but then it just fizzled out at the end.  On another note I just read Apt Pupil for the first time and loved it.

I'll probably watch this to the end of the season, I highly doubt it gets a second season because the ratings are already down from the first Eps. Too many flaws of what would actually happen if you were in a dome.

I want to like this, but it's kind of bad so far.

 

I think the premise is awesome but delivery has been bad.  Way too many cliche characters.  The crazy guy with hostage, cliche.  The drifter who is ex-Military that gets caught up in a situation and has a chance to redeem himself while trying to escape his past deeds, cliche.  The same sex couple feels forced and is from California, it just seems too typical and thrown in just because they felt it was needed (I don't mind the fact there is same sex couples but it doesn't feel realistic).  

 

The show is failing on a very important thing for a new show, and that's that I don't give a crap about anyone on here.  Most are not interesting.  Hank from Breaking Bad is semi-interesting but other than that the rest are boring.   I like the story but the characters/acting are terrible.  

 

I'll give it a couple more watches though, maybe it'll start getting a bit better, but I can't shake the feeling that this would have been much better on HBO or something, or even AMC/FX.

has anyone solved the finite oxygen issue yet?

 

This last episode the people outside were spraying ¿water? of the outside and the kids hand got wet when he put his hand on the inside.

 

Not waterproof means not airtight.

      JJ Jansen on tanking

      It can happen but it’s nothing like the NBA. One player doesn’t make the difference in the NFL that one player can in the NBA. Also, there are just not the same amount of trades and even opportunities. Because the NFL isn’t just one stud away, you don’t get a lot of opportunities like Miami did with Tua or the Jets did with Zach Wilson. Both teams got multiple 1sts for players they traded (Jets had 5 1sts in 2021-2022 and Miami had 5 1sts in 2020-2021) and both got top 5 picks to select a QB. They both made some good and bad picks but Miami turned Tua into multiple playoff appearances even though Tua isn’t elite. Wilson was just so bad that the Jets still sucked. We had our opportunity in 2022 where we would have had 6 1sts and 4 2nds in 2023-2025 and probably had a top 5 pick in 2023 or 2024 for a QB without trading up. Unfortunately, Fitterer didn’t have the foresight to realize a full rebuild was necessary and when a team offers you 2 1sts and a 2nd for a non-QB like Tunsil and Burns, you take it. One thing I wish trades had in the NFL that they have in the NBA is protected picks. A moron like Fitterer could have a top 5 protected pick so his terrible GMing doesn’t accidentally give the Bears the #1 overall pick because the moron Fitterer incorrectly thought we were 1 player away from the playoffs.

      Anyone that believes getting a couple late season wins to end the season at 4-13 while picking 9th in each round, other than 2-15 with the 1st pick in each round is not being realistic.  It happens nearly every other year, Jags gave the browns a insane package to move from 2nd to 5th. If not for late season pointless/everyone forgets late season wins the Panthers would have gotten that franchise changing package. Not to mention Panthers would have had Herbo and Sewell in other years, but nope. Do I need to bring up da bears??? The goal is long term winning in order to make the playoffs, one season to tank could spark it with a Burrow that's gets sacked 60 times on the way to a SB.  I want to win as bad as anyone, but the second the Panthers are eliminated from playoff contention, the ONLY solution is to lose the remaining games to gain a better chance to never do that again. No other answer.
