Five episodes down and five yet to come of Wayward Pines' second season, and the people keep getting stranger and deranged-er every time they take the screen. "Sound the Alarms" provided the creepiest look into the mind of hypnotherapist Megan Fisher (Hope Davis), the frontrunner in the psychopath event in the Creepy Olympics.
Then again, there are some heavy contenders remaining. Pilcher is dead, but returns in flashbacks for Rebecca, making him very much alive in the story posthumously. Jason is a decent contender as the first of the first generation and the man-child in charge. Theresa wants to off herself, but does that make her crazy? Nah, but what about Adam, Ethan's conniving boss? We need to consider them all. ...

In tonight’s episode (9/8c on Fox), Hope Davis’ character officially locks up her nomination as the series’ most disturbing character — and we’ve got an exclusive video clip (embedded above) to prove it.

Two episodes were provided prior to broadcast.
The truth can set you free. Unless you’re an hour-long dramatic series centered around a mystery with potentially supernatural and/or science fictional aspects hiding in the wings. If that’s the case, the truth can ruin you. Last year, Fox debuted Wayward Pines, a new show based on a series of mysterious books centering around a perpetually perturbed Secret Service agent and the indescribably weird town he wakes up in following a car accident, and it all worked – for five episodes.
The fifth episode of season one – titled “The Truth” – gave viewers just that, in a ballsy move that played directly against the enigmatic nature of its progenitors. But then the season went downhill, failing to capitalize on our knowledge of Wayward Pines‘ true nature and unable to prove that such a brave decision so early on in a show’s lifespan is one worth making.

Wayward Pines, Season 1, Episode 10, “Cycle”
Written by The Duffer Brothers and Blake Crouch and Chad Hodge
Directed by Tim Hunter
Airs Thursdays at 9pm (Et) on Fox
Ever since Wayward Pines was announced as an M. Night Shyamalan project, the threat of the twist ending is one that’s hung over the entire series. For better or worse, Shyamalan’s name is associated with stories that try to come out of left field in the apex of the third act and surprise you with the idea that nothing you’ve witnessed is what it seems, ends that enjoy their trickiness so much it keeps them blind to the fact that they don’t bear up under scrutiny. And given the early ads for the show, which were heavy on that symbolism—as well as too heavy on imagery and quotes that invited unflattering Twin Peaks comparisons—it was hard to...

Let me begin by thanking the loud and boisterous crowd that attended last Friday's Atx Television Festival panel for "Wayward Pines." We had a full house and I had a great time moderating with showrunner Chad Hodge and star Carla Gugino and it sure seemed like the audience got a kick out of this Thursday's episode, titled "The Truth." I've mentioned this several times, but as I told the Atx TV Festival panel attendees, "The Truth" is a big one. It's one of the rare TV episodes that actually justifies the overused description of "gamechanger." After this episode, nothing will be the same for viewers, who will come away knowing a whole heck of a lot that they didn't know before about the nature of things in Wayward Pines and the same is true for some of the characters on the show. If you've read Blake Crouch's books, you know the twist,...

Wayward Pines, Season 1, Episode 4, “One Of Our Senior Realtors Has Chosen To Retire”

Airs Thursdays at 9pm (Et) on Fox
After two weeks of twist after twist, “One Of Our Senior Realtors Has Chosen To Retire” steps back from some of the crazy of Wayward Pines. In its place, there’s a lot of bureaucracy, as the Burkes’ decision to wait it out for the time being in Wayward Pines means they have to contend with the town’s rules in a less dynamic fashion than trying to stage some grand escape. Things are still creepy and unsettling, but it’s a different degree of creepiness than we’ve grown accustomed to, this one getting deeper into what daily life is like in the town. It makes for a less compelling installment of the series, though it does set the table in...
