iBooks had some Poe stuff for free. I got a poem and a story collection.
I think I'm addicted to ebooks I thought the same thing. | |

| I rewatched today. I did jump again when the uber creepy Poe guy, attacked Ryan/Bacon.
It never crossed my mind that the new FBI lady, would be a member of the SK cult. And I really hope that is not true. I did notice the eye contact between her and SK, but I thought that was more of show-down, of who would break eye contact first.
What was the name of the book, that she gave him? | |

| I really like it, and on Mondays eppie, there were a couple of shots of Kevin Bacons butt, I thought of that as a bonus. That said, I really like the show, the twists and turns, surprises, creepy Emma and her 2 boyfriends. *rolls eyes* | |

They can all die, or go to jail, Joe the cult leader, has more followers at his disposal. | |

| As long as people stay hooked I think this show will last... it got picked up for a second season after its 2nd episode... it brings in over 10 million viewers... nothing compared to 666 Parks average of 4 million veiwers...
Always baffles me the decisions these netowrks make.. I mean look at Fringe it only average about 1 - 1.5 million viewrs and stayed on for over 4 seasons... yet 666 averages 4 million, is a well written show and it gets cancelled... makes no sense! | |

I agree. And, it seems like every episode is now going to be about which unexpected character is revealed to be part of Carroll's groupies. This most recent episode is the first time I have felt that way, because I have really liked the show up until now. I think there should be more to the plot than who's a groupie. I'll still keep watching and hope the plot picks up a bit more. |

| Also, based on the last episode, I wonder if part of the plot twist will now be which of the "following" turn on each other. Maybe Carroll will have them all turn on each other in one way or another. |

| Agreed with the "come on" factor of having all those cops and fbi in on it... I like Emma she's a neat character. I like the boys too hate the specialist cop... why on earth did we need to see her back story?? dumb. she's just awful i was really annoyed the kid didnt get rescued too | |

like Emma turning against her men? Yeah, that's what I was thinking of. She got out with the kid, but left the 2 guys. Although they were able to get away too, so not sure if Emma knew they would get away too or if she just left them there to fend for themselves. Seems to me that she did leave them there to die because they seemed to know nothing about what was going on. The actress who plays Emma is awesome, I must say. Lots of nuances to her acting. She's great. |

| I like it, I like the twists and turns. I like that we never know, who is a "Follower". The cop, was a total surprise, and I liked that. Emma, leaving the guys behind, was awesome, I am guessing she had her orders to take care of Joe Jr, and everyone else, is just collateral damage. The female FBI agent was raised in a cult, and managed to break free (or so I am guessing) in the scene, where she is leaving her parents, and tells them, I love you, remember that, I expected FBI or what ever to do a raid on that place. I really have no complaints about this show. Obviously Carroll has a plant in the FBI, he knows to much, he also has to have a guy or girl on the outside, that gets that information for him, and someone who relays that info to him. And not the lawyer he had her fingers cut off. He has never put all his eggs in one basket, some of his followers, have no idea who the other followers are. Someone on the FB ABC Message board, thinks that Mike Weston (FBI Agent), may be Ryans Follower per Joe Carrolls instructions. At first I thought Mike was just a major suck up, to Ryan, but now I am beginning to question that. And, Kevin Bacon, looks awesome in a pair of Levis. | |

Is it just always gonna be about who is the surprise "follower" for this week. It's not a surprise to me at this point. At this point it is more like a groan. |

That's an interesting take. I didn't consider that, even though the wife had a follower. That person was suspicious of Mike Weston from the beginning. She has good instincts about how a show could be written. | |

| In my life, I am suspicious, jaded and rarely trust anyone, and if someone is nice to me, I wonder what they want. On the internet, I am more trusting. lol. You would think it would be the opposite way. When it comes to tv, I suspend reality, while I love to read other peoples ideas, and theories about shows. I rarely have my own. And I like it that way. I want to be surprised. That said, I am glad you all can see what is gonna happen, and I appreciate you all not telling me, before it happens. Also, the numbers for The Following are wonderful, it is likely to be picked up, for another season. I certainly hope so. | |

| I knew the female cop was a Follower, as soon as she said, "I'll go with you, I know the roads there". Iggy I do like the twist that the Followers are not followers of Carroll necessarily, but one of each of the others...Emma is probably Joey's Follower, we now know who Claire's is.....not too sure about Mike being Ryan's...not yet...the storyline about him being a suckup sounds more fun to me Ilove how Ryan just trash talked those two klutzes while tied up...that they are still alive is due to absolutely no skill on their part... And how cool were those laser beams on his gut as he stepped out the front door? |

Yes, that was cool, he dropped like stone in water, and if those 2 Joe followers had not shown up, they would have been dead. They might as well be. Emma bailed on them, one is hurt, and the other is clueless, and they have no way to contact any other followers. | |
