I mean I just watch it to enjoy myself instead of speculate about every single scene/quote/placement/camera angle/etc... We'll find out who the killer is in due time! I think it's more exciting to tune in to see who GETS killed each week (and how)...

That would be an interesting twist. Abby as misdirection for Henry leaving Trish, when he wanted Maggie all along. I wouls think mother and son, rather than Bonnie & Clyde.

She's PMSing over the stress of the wedding, pissed at the bad Bachelorette party, and angry that Henry wanted to have their wedding bash on the very island multiple people were killed and then she has Abby walking around reminding everyone. She's killing everyone close to her i.e. (Cousin Ben, Lucy, her father, I'm sure she killed her mom). Youre kidding right? Why would she kill her parents? She's psychotic. People kill their family all the time.

How sad the first episode was so weak that people didn't stick around. The show is going to start getting good. 8 more episodes to go. Last Edited By: Coachocd 05/16/09 12:33 AM. Edited 1 times.

How sad the first episode was so weak that people didn't stick around. The show is going to start getting good. 8 more episodes to go. I've rewatched the first episode and I don't find it to be all that bad. The first episode is better than episode 4 and perhaps even better than episode 3. What hurt the first episode was that there were too many characters from the start and they were all introduced at once. This made the episode confusing. If you watch the first episode again after watching three or four episodes, it's comes off better because you know who all the people are. At least the first episode had 2 murders. The 4th episode was even more slower paced than the first episode and had a lame accidental death and no murders.

What a horriblly anti-climatic way to end things. So not fun. I'm just hoping it's not the groom as he's the least (and therefore most) likely to me.

At the end they can always go back and show us where the killer was at that time and what effect he/she had on Booth's death if need be. I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

It was Freddy vs. Jason, so I had to watch it for a bit just to see this horrible horrible actor get killed. I can only hope his death on this show is far more gruesome.

Though I do enjoy reading the people who are CONVINCED it's booth .

A series that could have done very well against the likes of trashy dating shows and I'm a celebrity get me out of here. But the stupid executives thought that it somehow could make it against first run popular series. Ditto to Dollhouse and Cupid (well Cupid belonged on the family channel) and the Unusuals.

I also like reading everyone's theories. There are 4 or 5 people I want to see last until the end (Cal, hot Jimmy, Sheriff, and maybe Abby or JD) so sometimes I like to check the spoilers to make sure one of those 4 don't die too soon. But when it gets to be around episode 8, I'll stop looking because the murderer may be revealed by then. My bet is still on the groom.

It didn't seem like it to me...seemed someone else was out there... If a sniper wanted to take out Booth, they would have more likely aimed for the head or the chest area. Even an expert marksmen isn't guaranteed to hit as narrow a target as an artery in the leg. Other than Kelly's murder, which was originally made to look like a suicide, all the other victims were first intentionally put into a vulnerable position before they were murdered. Then shooting of Booth does not fit this MO. In terms of the story, the only purpose that is evident, so far, for Booth's death was that it was a means to an end for Malcolm ending up with Uncle Marty's cash. From a story perspective, Booth's death makes little sense to me. At this point he is as expendable to the show as Cousin Ben but at least we are pretty certain that Cousin Ben was murdered by the killer. They could have just as well had Malcolm draw the short straw and not even had Booth on the show. All the bodies of the other victims have either been found or could potentially be found (Uncle Marty, Lucy). No one is going to bother looking for Booth and no one, other than Malcolm (as long as he remains alive), knows where Booth is buried.
