I love FNL! But also the computer I watched it on when I was super into it had no audio and subtitles lose all the emotion.

Is it? I do feel I die a little death whenever it's suggested as a party game.

Terrible wig was 1999, I thought- it was before Beverley was kidnapped. Perhaps he had a different wig in the early 4000s. Good question.

I thought Hassler was there on Pilcher's orders. Huh.

She's really familial in a sort of maternal way (she's older than Pilcher, right? Do we know this?). I would NOT let my brother cryogenically freeze me for 2000 years. Just to be clear.

It's possible before the abbies there was a downfall of human order, thus coins stopped long before humans. Because Hassler wasn't convinced they were the last ones out there.

You NAILED her costume. She totally looks like a Jurassic Park employee!

Well, I believe that he told them immediately. So I bet the abbies were released pretty soon after and it took them a little while to get their bearings and kill the survivors afterwards.

I agree, but it took me a second to realize it WAS a flashback. For a minute all my bran synapses started firing wildly back to comment sections of yore- TIME TRAVEL AND CLONES AAAAH

Arlene was the BEST! She was so BRAVE! The onlye ver time I've seen Siobhan Fallon act was as the Lamaze teacher with a speech impediment in Baby Mama and this is a REAL change of course.

I feel like it's hard to really establish whether Pilcher is good. The gist of it is he did, truly, save humanity, but he did that at the expense of the humans themselves. Obviously he's wildly unethical and kind of a psychopath, but he did preserve the accomplishments and beauty of the human race and deserves at…

They are very different places.

I don't know. Being bad gets you awards show cred. But Melissa Leo is a seriously good actress.

Right, but you need proof to believe. I would never sit still with "something scary is out there" (I hope.)

I'm not sure how bad the science is here.

I see what you mean, but I still think it was mainly because she knew what could happen (incorporating both your theories) as it had been done before. It explains the general dynamic between her and her brother better.

It had one surveillance camera, outside. None on the computer. Although you're right about the staff. But it seems like he could just have a different feed or something.

The issue is the show was made a year ago (Ethan thinks it's 2014, which is when WP was meant to air) so the actors are no longer under contract. But I bet Melissa Leo will get nominated for stuff (is this a miniseries or TV show? Anyone know?) and maybe that will compel her and some others to stay on for more press.…

We still don't know how Kate remembered Pilcher (don't think we'll find out.) Did she just recognize him from a science journal back in 2014 or something?

Everything not in WP is 2014 (or the surrounding abbie woods.) Everything in WP is 4028. Simple.
