(16,104 posts)What a start to Season 2! So much to digest!
Great acting, great story, mystery upon mystery, revelations yet to come!
Even a new opening credits montage!
Only thing missing is zombies! So far! (Hope that isn't considered a spoiler ?)

(28,394 posts)I think the new locale and characters are very interesting. Yes, I hope it doesn't turn into another "Wayward Pines," which started out as intriguing and degenerated into a zombie-fest. I wasn't crazy about the opening scenes ... at first I thought the residents had to live in a cave!
I wonder what happened to the Grateful Remnants, especially Laurie. At the end of the first season, she seemed to reunite with the family. I can't wait for more episodes!

(16,104 posts)There was an awful lot of unexplained material, just like Season 1.
I like shows which allow us to think and wonder, not spell it all out like we are 3-year-olds.
Philosophy and 'religion' are unresolvable mysteries, and this show seems to be in that vein. We happy viewers anguish for answers, but I don't know if we are going to get them. We are allowed to draw our own conclusions.
Probably not a commercial concept. But we pay for this, and I am happily paying!

(42,770 posts)as the first season, the setting that is, I did find myself constantly waiting for them to flash back to NY. New lead character equally as real and heroic as Justin's.
Wonder where that baby came from that Justin's girlfriend is holding. Guess they will flash back with that story line at some point.
Miss the smoking cult !!

Nora found him on the Garveys' porch on the last episode of season one. The mother was that young woman whom Tommy(?) Garvey was involved with. I think she abandoned the baby in a park and Holy Wayne is dead. Tommy brought the baby to Mapleton. I guess Nora figured "finders keepers".
