Wait... was this the season finale?? I love this show but the season finale could have been a bit better IMO. I agree with the above poster- it does feel like they've beent rapped for much longer than 2 weeks- And wassup with the the black lady- the girls step mom she only appears like sporadically- i always wonder where does she disappear to? Lets see what next season brings!

If there is another season, I'll be as surprised as if a Dome was dropped over my town.

this show isn't all that good, yet I keep watching LOL. Pretty weak finale. When the cave wall fell and the dead girl appeared...I literally laughed out loud. how cheesy.

Maybe I should just read the book, because at this point I just want to know how it ends. There is a lot of bad acting on this show.

The book was really good...until the end. I hated the ending! If you do read the book, just know you won't recognize much of what has happened in the show. They deviated from the book a long time ago, and at this point, I'm wishing they had followed the book...crappy ending and all.

I usually hate Stephen King's finales. Never what "I" want to happen!

I'm thinking of getting the book, "Under the Dome", just for light reading! According to Amazon, the book was in 2 parts???

Well, respectfully, he's the reason I started watching this show. I did like him in Breaking Bad. He's been a staple in every cop movie since Lethal Weapon...but still, I grew to like him.

With that said, I'm so disgusted by this show. I thought it had such potential...Steven King...and Spielberg, too...right? We watched the final two episodes last night and I groaned the whole time.

Junior is one crazy stalker weirdo.
Joe might be the only sane one but he "loves' Nori so...
Nori has the biggest forehead I've ever seen.
Rebecca deserved to die. End of story.
Andrea didn't deserve to die...but her dying on True Blood was WAY better!
Basic Townspeople...why the heck are you so trusting???

NOW...

Barby used to be the most sane one but he was over the top unrealistic in his love for Julia.
Julia is ok...but all this "I care about our town" just wasn't believable.
Sam, Pauline, Dwight Yoakum...just weird...all of it WEIRD.

And then there's Jim...how can he try to poison the town on Monday and by Wednesday he's everybody's friend again? How can he extort water and other resources on Tuesday but say he has the town's best interest at heart on Thursday? How can we believe anything he says or does?

In my mind, you need at least ONE character that's worth watching...has some semblance of logic and smarts...unfortunately, NOT ONE character used any part of their brain at any time. I SO wanted to like this show, but after this season, it's beyond me. I can't even think what they'll bring back next year when all I really want is for nearly everyone to die. I know it's terrible...but it would help with my anxiety!

Only in two parts if you rip it in half.

Yes read the book. The characters are so much better in it.

I just can't see this being renewed. So awful it's good in an odd sort of way.

I actually want to see a Season 3 - the ending was so bad that there has to be something redeeming in another season so I don't feel like I wasted my time watching the first 2.

Why did they even mention how long it's been? Yes, out of all the ridiculous things I've seen, that only two weeks have elapsed is what I find most unbelievable. Heck, they could have said that it's been two weeks in "outside" time when Barbie got out, but that it's been months or years in Dome time.

So you want three years of wasted time.

Once I went on vacation in August, I just let the shows accumilate on dvr and week before finale, I watch 6 episodes that week.

Everybody made over the cliff except for Julia, Jim and jr and some corpses. So I guess the next evil will be Barbie dad.

What ever happen to all that propane that Jim was storing, it was never mention in this season I think.
