If they would have just done their jobs he wouldnt have had to. I love how service industry people blow you off when you are nice and only give you the service you need when you are rude then have the audacity to say "you didnt have to be rude". Yes the frick i did, apparently

This show is so unreal, solely for the fact that it's open season on dogs and the cops are doing other cop stuff.... yeah right.

Just finished the 3rd episode.

Wow, easily the best one. Was very influenced by Lost.

Catching up tonight, how are the next two?

They are good. If you liked the 3rd, you will probably like next week's, which looks like it focuses solely on the preacher's sister.

So the show is starting to turn around. Typical that I now no longer have HBO.

Did anybody else think the FBI agent talking to Chief on the phone sounded a little like Norm McDonald?

Stoning is number one on my worst way to die list


So brutal. It was horrific. Besides death by fire, I can't imagine a worse way to go.


This. That was rough to watch.

But I think burning alive might be worse. With stoning you MAY get hit one good time and knock you out first, or at least so dazed you may not feel too many more throws.

Someone should start a thread on the OT about this.

Can somebody explain why the GR does what they do? Specifically: what's with the constant smoking, white clothes, silence and the no family thing?

Is it meant for earthly punishment since they got left behind? Do they want to die earlier? They feel like suffering is what they are supposed to do?

edit: apparently this link explains it

Garvey needs to get over his wife, it's over. Call in the calvary and get the town back.

I think him telling his daughter they are getting a divorce shows that he realizes its over and will begin moving on.

So did the ATF just usurp the power to eliminate cults sometime after the rapture? It was interesting how Garvey was not completely caught off-guard by this.

the rapture


In the show, did the writers intend for October 14 to be the Biblical rapture? Or is it just similar to the rapture?

Didn't the first episode sort of mention that the people who disappeared were a mix of good/bad and all different religious or non-religious affiliations?

Yeah, it isn't quite the Rapture as we know it, just that millions disappeared for no reason and nobody knows WTF happened.

In the scene where Garvey was talking to the ATF-type guy I thought he was completely taken aback by what he was hearing to the point where he was speechless.

That guy was just handing him all the white shirts to get him to leave.

I think his soon to be ex is breaking in and stealing them so she can wear them since they are white. She doesn't want to divorce him its just the batshite cult is making her.

I agree with the first two sentences. The third I am not sure of.
