me and the wife were excited about before it started. like 2 epi's in we're like "ok, this is bad but let's keep watching"

by midway thru season i was like "i'm out, frick this show"

but she kept watching. what i discovered is that it is way more entertaining to watch with a "oh frick this show" attitude.

at the end of the season even she said "ok we don't need to watch season 2" and i'm sayin "no, we are. this is what it must've been like for people who hated LOST but kept watching"

Seriously? I've only seen the first five or so episodes but it's been pretty great so far. Of course, it's been on in the background while I was doing other stuff...

The Following is the funniest comedy on TV.

I can't wait until these threads after every episode.

If you had any credibility to lose, you lost it all right there

Makes judgments based on limited information obtained while he was paying more attention to other things ... sounds like a perfect cult recruit to me.

You just described my "Under the Dome" viewing experience.

This is the same tactic CBS used to push the CSI franchise.

The show is being enraging. EVERYONE cannot be a part of the cult. And the FBI is the most inept group of law enforcement ever devised, on this show. Not to mention, how many people die while Kevin Bacon tries to save his girlfriend? I think she is responsible for a minimum of 50 deaths. But those deaths are just shrugged off.

Hey, as long as Kevin Bacon gets laid, who are you to judge?

SWAT doesn't exist
Backup is always a minimum of 20 miles away
Bacon's pacemaker can't handle a 20 second fight but he can book it on foot half a mile through the forest with no issues
The cult has an unlimited budget for food, booze, supplies, etc
Everyone except Joe and his crew has an IQ hovering around the 50-60 range

I cannot fricking wait until the new season.

After the first episode or 2, I was about to drop the show, until the episode threads took off on here.

Must-see-TV, I tell ya.

Also, I wanna hate bang the shite out of that little redhead pixie.

But yeah, the show is so bad it's hilarious.
