Adaptation of Stinger (1988) by Robert McCammon
Story
Trapped on a farm in Georgia, a group of neighbors must put aside their differences and band together in the face of a mysterious and deadly threat. Link to Korman Productions Deep Dive TV Podcast: Cup of Tea on Peacock Deep Dive: S1 E1/2 “Think About the Bubbles”/”My Little Lighthouse”; (2024).
It is not natural for people not to ask clear questions
As soon as the blue line appeared, I immediately thought "lost" and “under the dome”, two other shows where people are trapped somewhere and have to avoid mysterious dangers. It is very poorly written as there are many scenes that ask the simple question of “why”; he never asks and they encourage us like before.
I’ll watch it again, but the slow pace doesn’t bother me
It takes more than creepy music to overcome how lazy the writing is. This show has potential because of the tension between the characters, but the isolation/mystery element is just another escape to the island or the domes.
It’s too boring at this rate and I’m not as stupid as they think I am
too long.
