Trivia
"The End of the World", the song played at the end of the episode, when everyone is taking shelter in the cement factory, protecting themselves from a bomb, is the same song from the Fallout soundtrack, a game about a post apocalyptic world, also hit by a bomb, where people live in shelters, similar to where the Chester Mills inhabitants are at the moment.

Goofs
At the end when the Reverend is dead, his arm is laying across his chest, but in the following shot, as Big Jim walks away from him, his arm is by his side.

Quotes
Dale 'Barbie' Barbara: Moab.
Dodee Weaver: Come again?
Dale 'Barbie' Barbara: What your reverend was ranting about. His hearing aid must have intercepted a transmission like the ones that you're picking up at the station station.
Dodee Weaver: But why would the army be telling Bible stories?
Dale 'Barbie' Barbara: Moab is not a city, it's an acronym: MOAB - "Mother of All Bombs". That's what we call the largest nonnuclear missile in our arsenal.
Dodee Weaver: You think they're gonna launch that thing at the dome? Would it work?
Dale 'Barbie' Barbara: Yeah.
Dodee Weaver: Then why don't you look happy?
Dale 'Barbie' Barbara: Because it'll also kill everybody inside.
Dodee Weaver: What?
Dale 'Barbie' Barbara: Dodee, Visitors' Day was not about saying hello to your families. It was about saying goodbye

Different

So a town is isolated by a dome from an unknown source. Although the attempt to keep the element of mystery alive, I can't see this going into a Season 2. The story line reminds me of The TV series "Jericho" (isolation), but without a binding emotional connection like Jericho did. There's an obvious underlying tone of a town secret that has yet to be unveiled. I guess the disturbing storyline involves a young man and the girl that he "loves" and tries to protect. Oh, which reminds me, in the first episode there was such an unnecessary scene of the young couple having sex that was very obvious and left nothing to the imagination that had absolutely no bearing in their storyline. The show almost lost me at that point, but I held out hoping it would get better. So far.... Still disappointed. Sorry, but if this show doesn't get up & going soon, I won't be watching to the end.
