Harpers Island

[Primal Slayer]

Can someone explain what all this recasting talk is about? I haven't heard anything about recasting, and why would they? The series is over, and there won't be another season. If anyone could explain I would appreciate it.

When the series first went into production they had different actors in some of the roles. Some time during filming/after filming they went back and recast those roles and refilmed the show before it was broadcast.

If you post your thoughts on the finale tonight, please keep everything in spoiler tags. The finale does not air in the states until this saturday night.

 

[TheCardPlayer]

Alright. Episode 12 plays at 7:00 but Episode 13 isn't there yet. I'll have to wait until 9:00 for both to play on another Global channel.

I will never make fun of Canadian's again using the Blame Canada song if they get this online for us tonight like they have been since the date switch everywhere else

 

[TheCardPlayer]

Why did I watch now! I have to wait for the damn finale in like two hours. This sucks. Man, that final kill was really sad. Now massive spoilers, so don't read unless you absolutely want to know

Spoiler

I knew it was going to be Henry but it was still great to see the reveal. Loved the Hey dad! line to Wakefield. Poor Trish. She loves him and he destroys her life, kills her family and then he finally kills her. Henry's more evil than I expected.

You have no idea how monstrously evil, the killer is. Seriously unless you really want to know, do need read until this Saturday. But I feel like saying this right now, because of all the excitement.

Spoiler

All the copycat killings of Wakefield in Seattle and everywhere else...it was all Henry. We see him do it. He killed everyone on the island. The reverend, Richard and JD and Katherine. He killed them all. He says all of that to Sully before killing him. He even kills Wakefield in front of Abby. He's just horribly evil and twisted. This ending is amazing. I was never this happy to see a villain die. At the end, you see a vid of all the characters in a video, saying how happy they are for Henry for his wedding. But he killed them.

I love this show. Sad to see it go though.

Well, I will say CBS ruined it for me. Cuase they let Canada still air the show on Thursday. CBS= FAIL.

Now seriously...that is messed up. Sully was cool. Guess only the girl, Abby, and Jimmy survive? And why would Henry kill his brother and dad? Wakefield was his Dad, right?

Spoiler

Henry was Wakefield's son with Sarah. Abby's mother. But she didn't want him so she sent him into adoption and Sheriff Mills accused Wakefield of trying to kill a policeman to send him away, so they wouldn't have to deal with him. Later he was released and returned to the island to take revenge of them. He found Henry during his massacre and he realized it was his son.

Shea and Madison survive. So does Abby and Jimmy.

Canada still airs the show on Thursday. CBS airs it on Saturday's now. CBS here in the States used to air it on Thursday. So technically, it means less ratings for the finale. Which is sad, but I think CBS doesn't give a **** about the show. The DVD is loaded, so kudos to them on that. I am buying.

 

[Primal Slayer]

So was it a 2hour finale or just one hour? So far all I have seen around is ep13 with ep12 nowhere to be seen.

Eppys 12 and 13 were shown. 2 hrs...

 

[Dark Helmet]

Is there an alternate ending to this on the DVD ? I can't say I like the reasoning behind everything.

Spoiler

The son ended up more nuts then Wakefield (I watched both episodes)

I didn't know CBS had something to do with this show.
Thanks for filling me in.

 

[Primal Slayer]
