However, that “twist” does leave open the possibility for more story to tell, and though it’s the end point for Crouch’s trilogy, because of the ratings, Fox has been ruminating on a second season of what was initially considered a one-off limited series.īefore I address it, let me just say that I don’t think that the TV series will choose the same ending as the novels.
You see, there’s a twist in the final book of author Blake Crouch’s Wayward Pines trilogy, and - in my opinion, anyway - it’s not a good one. The mystery is gone, and Wayward Pines now seems to be careening toward a predictable, almost formulaic outcome. However, while the series initially managed to maintain some intrigue after the huge twist was revealed midway through the 10-episode season, it’s fallen into a muck of stilted acting, trite writing, and predictable outcomes (the acting and writing were always a problem, but the unpredictability of the first half of the season carried us through). In fact, it’s narrowly beating even True Detective in the 18-49 demo. Begone, if you don’t want to know how the series possibly ends.īelieve it or not, the highest-rated scripted show of this summer is Fox’s Wayward Pines, produced by M. Spoilers for both the TV series and the book trilogy.
