I have my Tivo set to record this, but after hearing more about it I'm likely to wait to actually watch it. I don't do horror either, much too squeamish.

Liking or disliking the horror is not the point. I am not a big fan of horror myself. I just do not think its wise to not watch it because someone else says it has too much horror. We have no idea what the two people's definiation of "too much horror" is.Originally posted by RealmOfX View PostOriginally posted by aretood2Comment

The producers are using the concept and title, but after that, all bets are off. Hopefully, they are taking a cue from Haven, which has done the same thing quite successfully.
They have changed the ending so renewal is possible. They are also changing some off the characters and not killing some off.
The novel's concept of a town cut off is interesting, but it turned too Lord of the Flies on steroids too fast.
After, I didn't care about the concept anymore.Spoiler:

I actually enjoyed the book, I wasn't trying to turn anyone off from either book or show, just commenting on my low level of tolerance to the violence people used against each other, and that was the hard part about the book for me. I can take horror/sci fi and fantasy stuff anytime. I'm looking forward to seeing the show!Originally posted by jelgate View PostComment

It is all good but something was missing I couldn't put my finger on - but it certainly hold my interest and kind of reminded me of LOST somehow... a little bit, from the way it was shot and all but maybe it was just me. Anyway, gonna tune in next week as well.sigpicComment

I hope not. I'd rather they tell the complete story in 13 episodes. After all, they're not creating the story as they go. They're adapting a finished book. If they try to prolong it for as long as they're able, the quality will suffer and we might well be left hanging with a canceled series and unfinished story.Originally posted by Dumper View PostComment

Ugh, after all the anticipation I went to the DVR to watch last night only to find out I forgot to set it to record....now I gotta wait for them to air it again!Comment

It's on Mondays at 10 on CBS. The first episode is on the CBS website now, and I think they are going to air it again on Sun at 9pm.Originally posted by Everlovin View PostsigpicComment

It's good to know I'm not alone in my squeamishness. I did watch it, but not live in case I needed to FF past violence and gore. I'm intrigued by the dome part, and I do like people-coping-with-disaster stuff, but if it's too violent and/or gory I'll just ask someone to tell me how the book ends and move on.sigpicComment

Not great, but interesting enough to keep me watching

missed the beginning of the Pilot but from what I saw it looked okay, not what I was expecting. Maybe I'll wait to see if it gets picked up for a second season before I continue watching.
Reading the comments, it was really violent and not really sci-fi but horror. EspeciallySpoiler:Last edited by blueray; 01 July 2013, 06:37 AM.sigpicComment
