Quotes

James 'Big Jim' Rennie: [Opening Narration, Season 3] Four weeks ago, an invisible dome crashed down on Chester's Mill, cutting us off from the rest of the world. The dome has tested our limits, forcing each of us to confront our own personal demons... rage... grief... fear. Now, in order to survive, we must battle our most dangerous adversary... the enemy within.

User Reviews

Garbage!

The first two episodes were interesting, beyond that the show is very bland and predictable.

The acting is sub-par and the action events unbelievable. I haven't read the book, but I like the idea so I think I'll be picking it up next time I'm at a book store.

Stay well clear of this mess of a series. It's almost infuriating that they would produce such utter flatulence thinking we'd enjoy it. This seems more and more the norm when it comes to TV these days. I can't tell you enough how much I detest this show.

So from a 1 to 10 scale, I give it a 1 and feel I'm overrating it.
