Ugh, can we not. That show was nothing but depressing squandered potential by the end thanks to whatever fumbling genius they installed as showrunner in season four.

Consider their perspective: By day's end, they could all very well be dead and their species wiped from the face of the Earth. Damn right they're gonna get some tongue in there. Make it count. XD
How much attention span do you think is needed for a single kiss? They're not gonna start making out here. They're in a crisis. Of COURSE they immediately start discussing methods to navigate it.
Because it's not as if unbreathing people have ever avoided death via medical intervention. Nope. Not once in history. Never.
I like to think she's been in there from day one, covertly sneaking carousel rides and ice cream every night.
People in disaster zones don't get rescued thousands of years later with no memory of intervening time and literally every significant aspect they knew of the world wiped utterly away…Kind of a weak comparison. But whatever.
Theo, like Ethan, was kinda cardboardy at start. But I kinda like him more than Ethan now.
As CJ notes, one group had a long time to process. They chose to leave everything behind. They came to terms steadily during the initial planning stages.
"Pilcher made the Abbies!" has always been a really really dumb theory. Why would he predict, warn people about and then save people from a thing he deliberately created…And then kill some of his creation, forever pissing off the rest? Stupid idea…
I imagine she did it to insure Megan wouldn't feel but not for mercy reasons. The immediate pain of an artery slash could have pulled a scream from her if it was in a place she could feel. Not great for Margaret.
"I've never seen it BUT I'LL CALL IT SHIT!" Get the fuck on outta here with your stupidity…
This was a solid A for me. Between CJ's entire story, seeing a mid-point between human and Abbie, Theo using flash cards to teach Margaret (and Margaret pointing him out as leader - amazed and kinda disappointed Jason didn't lose his shit there) and Megan's death scene…All so good.
You don't need to say "literally" when it's obvious. There's not even such a thing as metaphorical hypocrisy.
The Holocaust.
"These kids" had weapons. And Pilcher's adult security forces had weapons. And the adults at the mountain facility were largely pro-Pilcher. It's disappointing, maybe, but entirely expected.
Junk food (ice cream, fudge) is easier than crops. Powdered milk can make both, and be stored rather long. Real cream is not strictly needed for either. You won't get proper ice cream but you can get something that is close enough to satisfy.
Many died on invasion day. And more presumably died during the power struggles afterward. "It's totally different" from a period where bulk amounts of death hadn't occurred, yes.
Pam Pilcher may have initiated a smallpox epidemic. Whatever Yedlin says about incubation, if people evolved to be abberant, why can't a disease…
I don't think Pilcher wanted to be worshipped when he made the plans.
What underage girls?
"Underage" is a legal term.
The law in Wayward Pines is clear.
There is no age of consent there.
Only an age of breeding.
Once you can, you do.
