Just finished the season. President was a solid dude, not sure how/why Xavier blamed him for his wife’s situation. Hell, he tried to tell Xavier to get her hard headed assed in check and stay tf out of Atlanta. Even tried to get her on a plane afterwards. I bet she sit her ass down somewhere next time.:ufdup:

I'm watching this because of this thread. I'm on episode 3 and the slow pace and flashbacks are going overboard. Does this show get better? :patrice:

‘How the world ends’ scenes are always interesting but that might be goat

Finally finished this and I thought it was a bit underwhelming based on all the hype it was getting. E7 shined but most of the other episodes were mid. Not sure I'm going to bother with S2.

Exactly my feeling, even Sterling K's performance felt a bit off to me at times. Though he's still brilliant most of the time.

It was good, but that Idris Elba joint (which had a dumber premise) was actually better than this one.

His wife is definitely in on some sort of plan that he didn’t know about

I'm midway through this but do they address why the President's son doesn't have a SS detail.


I took it as perhaps with the lessened number of populace they maybe didn’t have the men to spare.

Everyone seems to be more or less grateful to have been chosen to survive in Paradise so in theory that could lead to a slack on things like a detail for the President’s kid as nobody would have reason to beef with the President himself.

As we saw, it wasn’t somebody chosen by the therapist who ultimately killed The President it was somebody who snuck in who already had beef. And even he almost said to hell with it and just lived his life as a librarian

I’m only on episode 4 and haven’t read the spoilers but the sniper dude mentioned that him his girl and the main characters daughter used to play Wii together, hence the daughter knowing about turning the cameras off, I wouldn’t be shocked if she had something to do with it

No one would comment, but I hear Woodley’s heavy arc is tied to Agent Xavier Collins’ (Sterling K. Brown) mission teed off at the end of the Season 1 finale, with Woodley playing a prominent survivor. Filming on Season 2 is currently underway.
