ok i'm not reading anyone's comments because i don't want to be spoiled. Just watched the first episode of this season on demand. Very cool show, but you can understand my confusion seeing as I missed the first season. From what I gathered---
The chick from the faculty cheated on the guy from the fire with the chosen one.
Are father justin and iris really brother and sister?
Father Justin is some sort of demon.
Short people are very sneaky LOL

Yeah I have until april 24th to watch the rest. Wish me luck-l

Laura:

I watched all of Season 1 and was probably as confused as you were going into Season 2. You've deduced things pretty well.

Jonesy and Sofie have been romantic in the past, but now it's falling apart. Which is too bad cause Jonesy rules. Brother Justin and Iris really are brother and sister. They were ophaned as children and the white-haired priest found them and took care of them. Brother Justin certainly SEEMS evil from the beginning of season 2, but all you know for sure is that he's on a path for... something.

Good luck getting it all done by th 24th. It's like an episode every other day. And once you get into it you won't be able to stop.

Just keep in mind, Enchirito, that Season 1 is basically there to set you up for Season 2. So just know that a LOT of stuff isn't going to be explained right away.

It's so worth it though, so don't blow it off if you get confused by a few episodes.

Enchirito's Impressions of episode 1x01.

ooo. Epic battle between good and evil. My favorite!

uuuh. Slow.

ok, so the midget talks to "the management" which won't be revealed for at least a few seasons I'm guessing.

Move faster.

yes, he's traveling with a carnivle, I get it. Something HAPPEN!

I like Brother Justin.

okay, so the kid has powers.

okaaay. So the carnivale is headed to Justin's town and maybe they will have a battle or something. I would hope at least by the end of the first season? From the pacing I can tell it will be long and drawn out, though. Are the in-between episodes any good or should I just skip to the season finale.

LMAO. Patience GRASSHOPPER. The episodes are good, but yes it's drawn out. There's a lot of history. But it's all good. If you want some perspective. Season 2 just ended and they only got to Justin's camp the episode before the last one.

The end of Season 2.

What I've heard from the creator is basically that Season 1 is a prolouge for Season 2. And that really is true, I think. S1 really sets you up more for S2, which has a LOT more action/battles/romance/etc in it. The only thing is, is that like Lost, the writers constantly drop subtle hints. So if you miss an earlier episode, you might miss out on something important for later in the show.

Keep with it, even though it can be a bit slow.

Yeah, I remember Season 1 being pretty slow, but by the time you get to Season 2, it's like a super fast roller coaster to the finale. I kept saying to myself all season, "Sunday CANNOT get here quick enough!"

Yeah, season 2 was a fricken rocket compared to season 1. But they were both still awesome.

I may be watching an episode everyday. I enjoyed the season two premiere-more so now that I think I'm grasping minor details. One thing that is bothering me though--who did the chosen one (stanley? lol) kill? The professor of something I gather, but why?

BTW jake your sig banner is the shit! I'm typing as fast as i can so i can go look at it again-l

Chosen one, do you mean Ben?

The Professor? Lodz? Is that who you mean? The blind guy? I'm Lost by what you mean......

LOL. Thanks.

Lodz is kind of a mystery at this point. We know he has strong ties to both managment and Scudder, but we don't exactly know how. I think Hawkins killed Lodz because Management pushed him to do it. I think management was testing him.

Yeah, Management needed Ben to see his gifts and accept who he was.

I'm just checkin in. Need to get back to the Tango... UGH

58 minutes seems long. I don't think I've ever watched a real hour long show before. So, in episode 2 I learned only 4 new things.

1. Brother Justin got a new church and is gathering more followers.

2. The blind dude and the chick's mom had/have something going on.

3. The kid's dad was some bad(?) dude that was/is involved with the Carnivale and that's probably why his ma thought he was marked.

4. From the clues given in this episode, apparently 'management' is a huge bear that wears a funny hat and fought in WW1. lol.

How am I doing?

Hobbes hasn't been on in awhile. Just wondering if he started Season 2 yet and how he likes it so far.
