You know what's gonna suck, that it's going to be all about the family drama, tension, yadda yadda. Which obviously is what it's supposed to be about but it's just not appealing anymore, is it. It might just as well be 'A Small Town with a Bad Dude running it and Decent People trying their best affected by Vaguely Mysterious or Apocalyptic Circumstances which are never really explained except when a deus ex machina is necessary'. Whatever happened to, you know, actual scifi or mystery shows...
I've checked this series out, watched the second episode a couple of days ago.
It's not too bad, especially since there isn't a great deal else that's on at the moment! It's great that it's got Dean Norris (Hank from Breaking Bad) in it, since he's brilliant in BB! I'm looking forward to seeing his character play out and see where they go with the whole story. I definitely want to find out more about the dome and where it came from...
It's a little early for me to make a final on judgement on the show. I need to give it a little time to develop I think!
coming from the guy who wants to audition for the most boring show on tv that's kind of funny

Judging by the amounts of drama and Excitement! (TM), I'm predicting another record-breaking episode. Will watch the season finale to see if they figure out the dome, but as has been said, with high ratings we'll probably get closure in a rushed S8 finale.

It's a mini-series there are only 13 episodes no second season etc.

Oh, that is most excellent. Judging by qbert's comments, I assumed otherwise. Despite the stuff I dislike, the few seconds dedicated to the dome in each episode I find enjoyable.

oops upon further research it seems this might go the way of the Vikings mini-series

But one element that fans might be curious about is the ending. We won’t spoil it here, but the novel does give Under the Dome a somewhat limited timeline – one that could easily be completed in 13 hour-long episodes. However, Deadline says CBS isn’t going to use the book’s ending, because they want another season of the series if it’s successful.

OMG....I'm not watching a second season of this.
At the end of this season I'll be looking for book spoilers.
