I still don't get the popularity of the following. I think I lasted 3 or 4 episodes on that one.

I still love the external shots. The wind is freakin' blowing 200 miles per hour, howling as part of the soundtrack... and those windmills turning ever so slowly.

My biggest problem right now, is believing that Ballasteros took an ice pick in the gut all the way up to the hilt... but is ok enough to fight the reservation cop and go for a long snowmobile ride just days later.

But I still like the show, ya gotta set some of the pickiness aside for a show like this.

Still a couple of weeks behind, should get through the finale tonight sometime. However it ends up, Syfy has renewed it for another 13-episode season next year: http://tvline.com/2014/03/28/helix-r...season-2-syfy/

I've deleted all unwatched episodes of Helix from my DVR (I had 3 unwatched) and deleted the timer. I don't like this show.

still watching the following.

to each their own I guess.

I'm a fan, haven't missed an episode, its a timely subject IMO.

"The Scythe" is about the only things that's really gave me a bit of sneer, dude just isn't a very good actor and the concept of some kind of badass one man army type is a bit of a stretch.

I thought the show got worse as soon as they introduced the 'immortal' angle. It's like taking a science fiction show about an outbreak and turning it into what was for all intents and purposes a vampire drama. And I agree about the scythe, just a bad character.

Theyre definitely pushing the limits, I'd like to see them tighten things up next year and not let the storyline spiral off in a thousand different directions like it started to at the end of this season.

I fell a sleep the last 2 weeks.

Yeah, that was bad. This series had so much potential until they decided to turn into a vampire story at the end of season 1. I actually though the show was cancelled. Just caught the season 2 pilot. What a total joke. Won't be wasting any more time on this trash.

The whole way through I was WTF is this shit? The funny thing is that it was SO bad that I feel compelled to watch again just to see where this trainwreck goes.

It was just a complete cluster. I've never seen anything so disjointed before. I still have no clue what they were thinking.
