If I were Stephen King, I'd be pissed.


This show had to be an insult to his book, assuming the book wasn't this bad. We're being asked to suspend logic on a level that I can't reach. And 10 episodes later, you're still asking what's going on.

-I never got why the Mist didn't want to take Alex. It sure seems it wanted her in the end.

-Why did those two military people commit suicide. I guess they know something about the mist and Bryan seems to be the center of it all. No explanation there, tho.

-The whole church scenario was as asinine as I've seen. So people who follow god all their lives are immediately talked into following some crazy lady who is preaching that The Mist is the way to go? The dumb-ass preacher wanted to prove his point so badly, that he was willing to go in to the mist for a showdown? Unreal.....

-People were willing to watch crazy lady burn others alive because they didn't believe in The Mist?

-Where did Connor go whack in the head. He was willing to help kill a few innocents and then sacrifice his son for something he wasn't positive that he did. What a way to test your son's innocence.

-Mall manager Gus was never found out.

-Mall security Kyle went nuts and everyone was okay with that.

-Eve hides a major secret, but decides to throw it all out there in the street for the whole town to hear all at once.

-The mall people would've been more believable if they were all carrying pitchforks and lit torches.

This show was a waste of time. They left unanswered question based on their being a 2nd season. It was so horribly done that I can see why it wasn't renewed.
