This 3rd key/door stuff pulled me in for these 2 episodes. The thing that bothers me is that they had 2 keys in the first few weeks (I think, I don't really remember them finding key #2) and the 3rd key didn't even come up until the last episode.

I'm definitely still interested and I do not want it to get cancelled but I want a bit more from each episode. I get that they need each inmate back to appropriately stick to the plot but I wish they covered a bit more main story in each episode. It kind of feels like they had something important, left it alone for a large chunk of the season, then brought it back in the finale.

Also I did really like the end with that weird glasses dude. But the end-end was an interesting twist. I have no idea what they could be doing with that.

I thought the finale was pretty good too, definitely kept me interested. One thing I absolutely hated and thought was so cheesy and ridiculous was the 5 minute Mustang commercial/ car chase I was forced to watch.

That Door is the hatch all over again, and there was Desmond, laying on the floor not knowing what year it was.

Dude I said the same thing about the Mustang commercial. There was an actual commercial for the 2013 Mustang and then when it cut back to the show, its Madsen driving around in a brand new Mustang. Product placement like that is absurd.

But anyway, yeah the finale was good. The Door is definitely a poor man's Hatch. Finally getting some things that will continue from episode to episode.
I guess if Season 2 happens they'll be travelling all around the US looking for people now that they have this high-tech map.
I really thought the Warden was going to pop up at some point.

And Madsen is definitely not dead. Well I guess if the show doesn't get picked up then it just ends with her dying.

That fucking sucks so much. It wasn't even that bad. I hope they just fucking release something explaining what they were going to do with the story.

They had that one week where nascar or something fucked up the schedule, I never caught up with it again after that. I wonder if that happened with a lot of people?
