I liked it. Yes I did like the girl that plays Dylan's ex partner. Wish this was on HBO.

I am in on this one for the full season.

Definitely enjoyed it - and liked that they showed how the town was acting.

Guy at the bar radioing that there was a problem, etc.

The "time" aspect is intriguing as well. How could it be 12 years for a partner that's just gone missing?

Just watched. I'm intrigued but that was the most frustrating hour of TV ever.

IMO, the books went to shite eventually. Too much silly monster crap. I am going to watch the first couple of episodes, though.

I know this is going to sound stupid, but what is the name of the books yall are talking about and who wrote it.

TIA

I believe it's just called "Pines" or "The Pines."

The opener was great,


So was Lost's. I lol'd the opening.... But like it.

It's lost meets Twin Peaks. Not the one in Waco.

I finally was able to watch the premiere.

I thought it was good. Definitely agree with the Shutter Island vibe. I tried to describe my initial thoughts to my wife and referenced a bit of Lost, X-Files, Truman Show, Bates Motel, etc - along those lines. Shutter Island is a better analogy at least for the first episode.

I watched the premiere online a few weeks ago and it was surprisingly good. I did some research online on the books this was based on and when I read what I read I had no interest in watching any more episodes.

Yeah I liked the first episode. Will watch again.

I know it's cliche, but my theory is that they are all dead, just due to how differently the three characters saw time (the bartender lady said she'd been there a year, the guy said he saw his partner 5 weeks ago, whereas she said she'd been there 12 years). Because of how the verse says "a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years a day" when discussing eternity.

Well it's only a 10 episode show. At least that's the plan for now.
