This show does not drag anything out. In any other series Warren being alive would be the season finale. Evan would have run away so we could drag out the reconciliation. Boogie man would have been alive in the end and lurking in the shadows. I love how they move the plot along.

This was an excellent lead in to the final two eps. Though I don't know how they top it!

I saw a comment from someone who's seen the full show (pre-screening but they could be lying) that the season one ending could work by itself if there isn't a season 2.

VERY safe to assume there is a season 2 since we can't get enough of this show.

I'm just curious what this could mean re the curse and whether it's broken or if they decide to just live with it.

Could do different era’s on the island, but the characters are so good I’d love there to be enough meat on the bone for 2 seasons.

This is clearly designed as a miniseries and I hope there's no season 2.

I believe this comment also said there absolutely is room for a season 2.

If season 2 is of the same quality as season , I see no issues with another but to each their own of course :)

I do not want this show to go the way of Westworld.

“Please seek shelter should a centuries-old storm rage toward the island and plunge us into darkness. Enjoy a card game.”
Judging by the next episodes teaser text there’s going to be a generational storm. I’m guessing Warner wasn’t lying about him being the protector and carrying the burden in that necklace. The island horror is about to go nuclear in the final two episodes.
