It’s unnatural for humans to not ask obvious questions
As soon as the blue line came up, I immediately thought of “Lost” and “Under the Dome,” two other shows where people are stranded somewhere and there’s some mysterious danger they must avoid. This is very poorly written because there are so many scenes where the simple question of “why” is never asked and that’s how they string us along like they did before.
I’ll still watch it, but the slow pace won’t hold my attention for long
It takes more than just creepy music to not realize how lazy the writing is. This show has potential because of the tension between the characters, but the isolation/mystery element is just another run on an island or dome.
It’s just too boring at this pace, and I’m not as dumb as they must think
very long.
