Lord of Oop North Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 What crazy shit will be happening tonight then? I really have no idea what is going on. No kidding. I need to know! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigFatCoward Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 finally got around to watching this weeks episode, how fucking quickly did that polar bear defrost? bit quieter this week, i suppose we needed a breather after the last few. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isis Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 Yeah, it was a bit calmer, but then the last two eps were a bit intense. What will Marcus do when he's finished sobbing though? And Liam? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maltaran Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 More to the point, who was it who attacked Ronnie? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isis Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 Yes, I forgot about that. Mostly because I forgot his name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StannisForKing299AL Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 There's a thread for this show?:D I never even knew... What will Marcus do when he's finished sobbing though? And Liam?I dunno, but I'm guessing either way Frank is screwed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StannisForKing299AL Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 Anyone watched episode 9 yet?It was a pretty surprising episode Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dooog Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 Anyone watched episode 9 yet? It was a pretty surprising episode Yep. Intense episode and so frustrating to watch (which i suppose is kudos to the writing) I both loved and hated the scenes with Tucci & Gambon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StannisForKing299AL Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 I loved the bit where Henry (Gambon) starts screaming at Tucci that he has no right dying there I honestly thought the twist with Henry and Dan was a surprise, especially with the last scene between them last episode.

brimmy Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 Professor Stoddart dog shot being shot when they entered the house has that been explained or is this not that important Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord_Baelish Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 Dan shot the dog because it was attacking the research assistant guy (what's his name?). I'm really enjoying this show, but I have no idea what the hell is happening most of the time. I've thought for a while though that Henry was somehow behind this virus or whatever it is being released, though it seems more likely it has something to do with those mammoth skeletons under the glacier.

RedEyedGhost Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 I have no idea what the hell is happening most of the time. Truth. Great show though, and I look forward to rewatching it after I know what is going on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brimmy Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 Ok firstly embarrassed about the typo but I have obviously latched onto something that isn't there Shot the dog before it attacked the assistant yes makes sense of course duh Thank you.Agreed very much enjoying the show Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isis Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 Incredible cinematography in this last ep, the scenes on the glacier. Great ep all round really, building that much tension all the way through, wondering what will happen, what will happen? I bet that boat didn't belong to Marcus.I wonder if Ron will just be left in that cupboard indefinitely, ie that nobody will ever find him before the season finishes. :) And will all the catatonic people be stuck like that forever? I can't imagine them suddenly being ok again. Why was Liam screaming at the airport? Just upset by the tension/drama or because he didn't want to leave the island? And finally, more rubbish science! IgE is not your first line of defence! IgE is known for two main functions: worms and allergies. IgA is your basic defence antibody, it's found in tears and saliva and also in the gut. Why they are even mentioning IgE at all I don't know. Unless they are going to say that the transmissible agent is a worm... In which case: COOL. That's totally plausible and makes sense scientifically. Brain worms make people do all kinds of weird stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's totally plausible and makes sense scientifically. Brain worms make people do all kinds of weird stuff. Worm parasite would probably fit the transmission profile. It doesn't seem to be airborne and there's the weird behaviour of spitting in victim's bellies. I had a longer post on my thoughts about the show but there was a freeze/loss so I can't face rewriting it all. Basically I like the show but feel as though "something" is missing to allow it to transcend into a great show. No idea what - it could be that it's a slow burn and needs more episodes/seasons to fully click. It has been intriguing and looks amazing. I like the Sheriff and the feeder guy as both seem like "bad" people but they are actually far more complex than that. Some of the other characters I'm finding harder to grasp and I'm not sure if they are supposed to be sideshows or that they get a chance in the limelight at a later stage. I do like how it's ninja'd sci-fi onto a murder-mystery crowd though. As long as there isn't a portal that teleports Polar bears through time to Hawaii, I'll stay on board.

Isis Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 I reckon if people marathon it as a box set it'll probably feel less like it's missing something. Only three eps left though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've managed 10 in a week. A great ending could make a lot of things slide into place from previous episodes though. The box set approach hopefully means an actor hasn't spent half the series gurgling in a corner! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isis Posted April 5, 2015 Share Posted April 5, 2015 WHY HAPPENING??? Seriously, can they really wrap this up in one more episode (unless it's double length)?Anyway, this is one of those times it's good to be a parasitologist. :)ETA: Hi, Frank. How are you?110%!LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedEyedGhost Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 That episode was so awesome. Even if you're trying to expect the unexpected on this show, you'll still be taken completely by surprise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord_Baelish Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 I hope the research assistant guy survives. He's one of my favourite characters. Is the bloke in the cupboard ever going to be found? Or will there be a scene after the end credits where everyone else is dead and he just crawls out and wonders what happened? My new prediction is that they will twig that these bugs came from the dug up mammoth and with that idiot Russian about to drill down for more bodies, the whole island will be evacuated to try and stop an outbreak. But I have been wrong about this show many, many times already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
