What I can't buy is the pristine,well-decorated houses with contemporary appliances much less all the stores and restaurants. There's no way current materials would last 2000 years and,even if they somehow preserved them, who built all the structures much less the power plant, water and sewage systems?
I'm still on Team Psychological Experiment. Maybe the knock everyone out for a week or two to make sure there's no one picking up the missing person's trail and tracking them to Wayward Pines...but I don't see how they could have been held in some kind of stasis for 2000 years.

If you have "Liked" the Facebook Wayward Pines Page, you will notice that many of their posts have upside down writing. So that must be a clue to... something.

Um... asleep for 2000 years? What? I'm now using this show as background noise while I work. They should've kept Lewis and Howard.

I watched the show and found myself laughing at the possibility of Lucious Lyon being resurrected 2000 years in the future.
And I think they should have made it 200 years, not 2000.
Also, I still think this is some bizarre government experiment because there's no way you can have something going for 2000 years and never have a power outage.

What type of crazy tech kept them asleep all that time?! |

Here are my two new questions:
1) why did th first set of townspeople go crazy but not all the workers in the bunker?
2) what's the point of even setting up the town if they have all the workers in the bunker?
This is turning out to be a show I will keep watching only because it's summer and there are less options. During the year? I would probably give it up now.

Yeah, why don't the workers who can handle the truth live in the town? What happens when the workers die of old age? Do they have to spawn generations of people who hang in the shadows, running behind the scenes stuff?

I believe M. Night & Co. are making this up as they go along. It started off so strong, too!

Nothing makes sense anymore. We have what, 4 more episodes? Are Kate and Reed Diamond going to blow up the fence to let the "Abbies" in?

I read the first one, and threw it away in frustration with a "This is a crappy M. Knight twist!" when we got to that point. So it seemed appropriate to me when I read he was involved in the adaptation to TV. |
