Is anyone watching this right now? It's a limited series of 13 episodes based on the Stephen King novel. Stars Mike Vogel, Dean Norris, Rachelle Lefevre and Britt Robertson among others.

It's kind of intriguing. Not bad for a network summer series.

Anyone read Stephen King's novel? It's his best work in ages, IMO.

I enjoyed the premiere a lot.

I liked the ridiculous special effects of the cow getting bisected.

Surely CBS will air an encore of this, right?

I watched about 15 minutes or so of the pilot and found it pretty cheesy. May catch up eventually though.

I thought it was pretty good. Will watch tonight's episode.

Will be interesting to see how this holds up in the ratings for the second episode. I don't see why it can't at least keep above 9 Million. Will probably drop more as it goes on though.

This show is super cheesy but I'm kind of enjoying it as undemanding summer TV. It does seem hampered a bit by being on CBS; it often feels more bland than it should.

Kidnapped Girl needs to find a way to escape Rapey Andy Samberg (seriously, look at him), though. We don't need a redux of Kim Bauer trapped with a cougar.

Because I had no idea this was on last night, I only recorded the final 15 minutes. Anything important happen before then?

The pilot is still the best episode so far. Last night's was pretty slow. I don't really understand why most of the characters seem oddly unconcerned with their predicament of, you know, being trapped under a dome. The dome might as well not even be there going by the characters' behavior.

Also, free Angie from the clutches of Rapey Andy Samberg, please. I've had enough.

This show is getting sillier with each episode. Most of the characters are too stupid to possibly exist.

Who's that? Do you mean the kid who's half of the Seizure Twins?

If so, I will give him credit for two of the better moments in the episode:
a) FINALLY asking someone where his sister is...I mean, hello
b) the creepy "shhhh" to the camera during the seizure episode

Edit: Oh, I didn't realize Mike Vogel was in that movie. Yes, Barbie and Big Jim are the show's two best characters probably.

Rapey Andy Samberg is still the worst by far, although Truth Seeking Reporter Lady is making a case for herself.

Yeah, Barbie. He's my fave. Followed by kid who doesn't care about his sister.

Post subject:  Re: Under the Dome

Just a weird episode. Big Jim is all over the place, decision wise.

Rapey Samberg is just... annoying, along with his prisoner girlfriend.

Why would they think a bomb would destroy the dome? It's obviously not man made. This town is full of idiots.

Oh and I'm glad that stupid priest died. He was annoying too.

Post subject:  Re: Under the Dome

I still enjoy how the townsfolk of Chester's Mill are remarkably unconcerned with anything that ever happens. That was the calmest "evacuate to a shelter because a massive bomb is gonna be dropped on us" I've ever seen.

Was anyone not happy when Big Jim finally killed the annoying reverend?

Angie being freed from the bunker only to run into Rapey Andy Samberg in her own house felt like every stalker/evil person thriller ever made. And then I started screaming things at the TV when she got all sympathetic and caring towards him for some unknown reason. But at least they got her out of that damn bunker.

Other hilarious moments:
-Cop Linda warning that they needed to put police tape around the dome so no one would touch it, then making out with her boyfriend against the dome about 5 seconds later
-Goofy DJ saying "Hey, that's my sister!" in excitement to no one in particular
-Nerdy Kid saying "Hey, that's your dad!" when Goth Girl's dad showed up (um...duh?)

Despite all these complaints, this episode had some intrigue and promising developments. It seems like every time they're about to beat out The Following for the most hilariously stupid show on TV that they correct themselves and right the ship. Also, Mike Vogel is really hot.

It is gonna be weird watching Dean Norris on Breaking Bad one night and then on this the next night, both in how different the characters are and how different the quality of the shows are.

Mike Vogel is really the only reason to watch the show. And to recite every line of the show before it is said.

They killed off Aunt Zelda from Sabrina last night. BLASPHEMY.

Seriously! But I actually really liked last nights episode. One of the best of this season so far.
