I don't mind a slow build, but Lindelof is at his best when primary characters have relationships we truly care about.
Right now it's "duct tape" in that department.
I would not mind a bit of expansion on the antagonist, quite one-dimensional (pun intended).
King and Irons are carrying the show, and I actually have been disappointed in Smart so far.
You're the first person that I've heard not like how Smart's playing the character. I think that she's doing a great job of playing the hurt, broken, and jaded ex to a god. Her taking it out on everyone else is how I'd think that it'd go down if a god dumped someone [Reply]
So I take it from their conversation in the bar that Dr. Manhattan is likely going to "die" but he's either going to pass on his powers to Angela and/or their potential child before it is over (or already has at some point in his lifespan). [Reply]
I'm hoping it's renewed but won't be upset of it isn't with how it ended.
Lindelof doesn’t see any need for a season 2 for now (although HBO’s money could get him to change his mind I suppose). I would tend to agree with him, they pretty much tied up all the loose ends and completed it as well as you could ask. [Reply]

Yeah it definitely looks to be over. I want him to do more DC stuff. [Reply]
Watched it and was totally lost. Don't know anything about the source material and it seems that the series expects the viewer to have a fairly well developed understanding of the material. I'm not sure a second season would be necessary; a lot like Westwood (finished the first season, didn't care for the direction of the second) where there are so many reveals that anything else is going to seem redundant.
