Matt Dillon's character died in the final episode of season 1.

Yes I know, but but but

It's wayward pines! they have to bring him back to life.

Do y'all think that was Sheriff Burke in the very last scene? I couldn't decide if it was him or someone else since more than three years had passed.

It looked like Jason Patric in the commercial I saw. I could be wrong, but I don't think I am.

You're right :) I cheated and looked up the cast in IMDB lol. I just read the trilogy and I don't remember Patric's character which doesn't mean he's a new character... It mostly means I have a lousy memory for names :( but he's a new character to the tv series :)

I'd have to look again because I don't remember anyone looking like Burke at the end. I don't think there is any coming back in Wayward Pines when you die (at least that was the way the book was).

The dude hanging from the gallows in the last scene looked a bit like Burke. I may have missed something, why do you think Burke died?

He detonated the bomb in the elevator shaft. I guess it's possible he got out of that before the explosion but I'm not sure how he would have got out.

I thought that
they froze him......or was that just his son?

That was just his son. His son was injured and unconscious when Ethan set off the bomb. So Ben was frozen without realizing it and woke up in the future. I'm pretty sure that Ethan is gone unless he got out of the elevator shaft somehow before the bomb went off.

I really like the Jason Patric character. I wasn't so crazy about that character the first couple of episodes, but I've changed my opinion as the season has progressed.
I've only watched the first episode. It just didn't interest me like the first season did, and that squirrel I went chasing had more energy than I thought.
I'm willing to give it a second chance, since you like it.....but I'll keep my stick handy in case I need to poke you with it if I end up not enjoying it....:D
