I wish I'd have kept up with this show. I watched the first episode, didn't think it was that bad, and planned to keep watching, but then I just kind of...didn't, LoL. But it sounds like it's gotten really good!
The first handful of episodes were really bad. I stopped watching after episode two, but then I watched last week's episode on SurfTheChannel and it was really good. The episode airing tomorrow is really good too. It took a while, but the show is finally finding its mojo, LoL. It also helps that there aren't 1,348 characters to keep up with anymore.

You should check it out! I don't blame anyone for being skeptical, because it was really bad in the beginning. I think it's gotten good though. Watch last week's episode on SurfTheChannel and see what you think. Here's the link...

I feel like I would need to watch the episodes before it to really get what's going on, though.

Eh... eh...

I skipped a bunch of episodes and didn't really feel lost at all, LoL. From what I've heard, there were just a bunch of secondary characters killed. Some chick was killed in a fire pit. Victor Webster was shot. Some other guy (Booth) was shot when he tried to bury money -- the same money that Wellington used to pay off Victor Webster's character before he was killed. The creepy goth chick with tattoos was hanged and the sheriff (Abby's father) acted super creepy and suspicious.

I think the first few episodes were to get us acquainted with the characters and make us care about what happened to them. Now it appears to be going full steam ahead. Things really got good last week when everyone FINALLY realized that murders were actually occurring, LoL.

OMG! I just watched the next episode and it was so good! It finally feels like a real horror movie.

This show has left me stumped -- in a good way. I pride myself on being able to smell a plot twist from a mile away, but so far, this show has managed to surprise me with something in every episode over the last three weeks.

I'm going to have to catch up with this show sometime when I have the time (lord knows when that'll be, though, LoL).

After all... tomorrow is another day!

Barely. LOL.

I watched it tonight but wasn't paying much attention. Abby and the gang found some diary that told them that Abby's mom and Wakefield had an affair and she may wind up being Wakefield's daughter.

The previews for the next epi make it look like Abby's "Dad" the sheriff is the killer.

I still think Abby is involved in this somehow, but maybe she's acting in concert with someone (or could it be her ex?). Or she knows something.

At the beginning I thought the killer wound wind up being Jimmy but he is hardly on. Now I'm wondering if maybe it is Trish or Henry.

I don't buy the killer being Abby.

I am pretty sure the last three living are the groom, the bride, and the best friend. They were the only three at the Harper's Island press tour. Makes me think one is the killer, one is the last victim, and one is the sole survivor.

I'm 100% convinced that the killer is Maggie, the wedding planner.

She's the only person who has no alibi for a single murder. Also, Madison hid her face from Maggie at the end of the last episode as if she was scared of her for some reason. It's totally her!

Good points. I just said Abby because she seems too close to the action. She might know who is doing it.

A producer (or writer) of this show tweeted that there will be a HUGE death tonight. I can't wait to see who it is!

Hopefully, the Canadians will get this week's episode uploaded to the web much quicker than last week's episode.

My guess is (and remains) Henry is the killer and is also Wakefield's son with Abby's mom. Henry has always seemed a bit obsessed with Abby imo. And it would explain why there was never any romance between them.

I kinda hope I am wrong though, cause it just echos the Scream Trilogy.

There is just something totally off about Henry. He's just too good to be true. The perfect guy, good looks, tall, dark, handsome, a good "husband". And we've now seen he has a very violent side (his fight with Shane). Before he was a quiet, smiling, awww shucks kind of guy. Now he is Mr. Ninjakick.

We've seen him have some skill with weaponry. He's a fisherman, so he knows his knots, has the training to harpoon a sleezy guy like Richard.

That's my guess.
