Ball of Magic Fire

Wow. What a total derailment of a show in the 2nd season after such promise. Another episode and still more mystery and guessing. Unfinished plots everywhere. The girl who came back who killed her brother is unwatchable and possibly one of the worst actresses I've ever seen. Now it's giant killer locusts flying around killing people or not killing people ? I don't know where to start with this convoluted mess of a season. I think that weird nursery rhyme about it comes for 3 has to do with those locusts who killed the annoying guy who was pissing everybody off. The guys wife who was in bed and now it's either the daughter or the drug addict girl who will be the 3rd one ?? Those "silver bile bullets" lol. Guess those were another dead end. The music came on the radio signal which stopped the creatures who we still know less about than the very first episode. Why, what, when, all questions still a total mystery. I'd say that was good if we had an inkling as to a reason in 18 episodes. Let's just say the finale better be some of the best television I've seen to save this titanic of a show.. lastly, the writers are the ones from Lost and I didn't know that until recently. We all shoulda known from that and saved ourselves in the beginning from this nonsense. The budget must have been under a million dollars for this because the acting and filming location etc.. are nothing special to be nice. I'm now curious as to how badly they will polish this turd off. What a disappointment!!

I am getting really annoyed by the unnecessary long and utterly boring conversations and the very bad acting on many sides in this show. Also the bad writing. People leave people alone when it was specifically said dont, keeping secrets in front of eachother instead of sharing and trying to get out if this together they are working against eachother. Totally illogical and unreal. Sara's and the deputy sheriff's character are done, ran out of ideas, they are just there to fill up space. I am watching it because I dont want my time that i put into this go wasted but i was fastforwarded the Sara scenes in this completely and I am absolutely sure i did not miss anything. Absolute waste of time right now, if you would just start it now, dont.

I think they are dead. They died as result of road traffic crashes.

There is no bad people to kill other people. Sara Myers isn't a criminal. She has killed people due to disperation but she isn't a cold blood criminal.

Maybe they are in the purgatory. A purgatory created specially for the drivers.

There are many clues which supports this hypothesis:

1. They aren't trying to escape from the city.

2. They have hallucinations.

3. The monsters can't be killed with a gun.

4. Main road is a circle.

5. There are conflicts with the laws of physics.

6. The weather does not change.

7. People don't get sick.

I think the people which are leaving here bad reviews don't understand what means a mystery movie. Them are prefering Supergirl where anything is clear ))

8 stars for those 20 minutes alone because it made the episode feel like an oasis in the dessert of poor writing.

Seriously, it was like taking a breath of fresh air.

Again, those first 20 minutes had the best characters in them. No poor dialogue, no random decisions.

And it's weird, the way the episode starts of is like a different writer came to the rescue of who ever wrote the previous episode.

I swear, it went FROM being almost a dead end story to having the defibrillators punched to MAX to try save the corpse of plot holes and inconsequential drama.

I wish... I wish Season 2 had more like those 20 minutes and more of Victor.

(Shortened summary in the bottom of the review)

The momentum of action since episode 6 keeps going with since 9th episode doing a great job at raising the stakes even higher and make it feel like that no one is safe. Sometimes this episode could be little all over the place, but other than that its actually not a bad episode, but actually something that is exciting to watch anyways.

You should watch this episode too, it has some important answers that you cant miss.

(9.7/10)

Shortened summary: The stakes are at there highest, people are dying and questions are slowly getting answered, giving us even more questions from the answers.
