Have you by chance read the book The Outsider by Stephen King? I couldn't tell by going through this thread

This book wasn’t published 18 years ago.. it was published 18 months ago. Almost no one has read it on here. I don’t care if a spoiler tag is attached, DON’T TALK ABOUT THE BOOK HERE until the series has concluded. That is the appropriate time to compare the book and series. Jesus Christ, these people want a pat on the back because they read an effin book. Like I said, start your own thread

I'm sure someone, somewhere would like to discuss the 2 at once.

On a side note it's pretty cool that more than one person is seeing how strange this really is. Most times you only get one character and everyone else thinks they are nuts.

It makes no difference. Ralph is a terrible cop and didn’t even put together the drawing his wife made with the one the car thief drew. How is that possible? It didn’t even cross his mind how two people who don’t know each other drew the exact same thing.

Is the Asian cop having an affair with the drunk a-hole cop? Is the baby his? Something weird going on there.

The child murderer woman just knew that it was a dna snatching shapeshifter demon that framed her? That’s a crazy coincidence.

Was I supposed to know who the black guy was that played a large role in this last episode?

Terry’s grave was near the barn. Weren’t we told that that barn was like a two hour drive from their town? Yet this is somehow the center of everything that’s happening in their lives?

Not enjoying the show that much, but I said I would stick it out til the end.

I'm on episode 3. Am I supposed to know who the 2 prisoners are? The two with the homemade shanks? The black and white dude?

Not really. I think they tip you off at the end of the episode when going through newspaper clippings but you'll get more info in next episode.

I went and watched it again before moving on to 4 just to make sure I didn't miss anything.

This is a show you have to stay glued too.

My question is why is hoodie threatening Ralph, when Holly is the one who's really figuring things out? She's the real threat.

not surprised you aren't enjoying it, you seem to be lost.

How am I lost? The only thing that would suggest this is me not knowing who the black guy was. Was he the brother of the framed child murderer? I thought he was already dead? I honestly don’t think they ever said who he was.

The scene with Ralph and Terry’s wife where she considers if Terry actually killed the boy is probably the best acting I’ve seen in years.

I also liked the moment where Holly brings out the tape and markers to look for finger prints and Ralph sees that weird pattern the Cuco left on the clothes at the barn. You can tell in his face it’s clicked for him too. Kind of like an oh shite moment for him. The suspense in this show is fantastic.

Another great episode. I can't get enough of this show. Loved how Holly used the tape and marker on her phone. I have no clue how accurate that is, but pretty sweet nonetheless.

I'm watching it again and why did his wife insist that everyone with any involvment be present for Holly's findings?

Ralph's wife is starting to annoy me.

I may be wrong, but I felt like she thought Ralph wasn't really making the right connections and wanted to be there to make sure he was open to anything. I think her "dream" really spooked her into thinking something weird was going on but couldn't exactly place it. Someone else will probably have a better explanation.

I think that’s a pretty perfect explanation myself.

Great episode and ending. I actually feel sorry for Jack, yes he’s a brash arse but the guy seems to really be trying to shake the evil away and it’s not working.

Using his mom is just pure evil. No we he can hit her back.
