Best. Episode. Ever.

FDO


Just had to drop a note - completely enjoyed Ep. 5. As a long time fan, I gotta say, in a breathy, Simpsons-esque voice, "Best. Episode. Ever."


Loved the pacing. Loved the humor. Loved the character development. I love that we're starting to see a buddy comedy in the middle of a horror/sci-fi framework.


Still having difficulty in my mind casting the characters for the Contagious movie - I always sort of see Robert Forster as Phillips (Jackie Brown/Heroes), and Lauren Velez (Dexter - http://www.imdb.com/media/rm1379571456/nm0904967) as Montoya - but Scary Perry still has been uncastable for me because of his size. Any thoughts?


Speedy recovery to the Evil Queen...

Great casting

Todd -- so glad you enjoyed it! And Robert Forster would be perfect. I've got my heart set on Terry O'Quinn (Locke on LOST) as Dew, but Forster would be ideal. Lauren Velez as Montoya? PERFECT!

A sequel

that's better than the original. And the original was great! Not too many people can pull this off! Kudos to our FDO!

Finished!!

Just pulled an all nighter finishing up the book....a job well done. It was kinda weird reading about all the insanity happening in my home state, made the book that much more real, and terrifying lol. You really shouldn't make promises you know you can't keep, not sure wronginthehead will be happy, but then again they are a Sigler fan, so in a sick evil twisted and sadistic way they probably will be haha!

I have a secret to tell

I had finished the book before I posted. At 1:57 in the morning.

Why would FDO have introduced them if he wasn't going to hurt them? 

 Actually had to take a break before a couple chapters 'cause I could see where it was going.  


 and agreed....a job well done. 


reading Vs listening

Still Avoiding the audio

keithlatch's picture

Just checked the UPS site and my copy won't arrive til Wed. Starting to go insane to purposely avoid the podcast until I can read the book, still downloading, of course, but want the book in hand before I listen. Yeah, I cheated a bit, had to listen to #1!

You haven't missed it. He will release it when he feels like it. Patience.

Loved the ep, Boss. I caught something, (even though I don't have my copy yet), but I'm not saying what save for ... diversion. (And I'm not explaining since those who have the book already know what's what.)

The Nocturnal Epilogue

Did the Nocturnal epilogue ever come out?  I remember FDO talking about it but don't remember seeing it.  Is it coming out at all or was it wrapped up in the last chapter?


NOCTURNAL epilogue still pending

scottsigler's picture
I'm working on it. When the issues with the Evil Queen™ start to resolve, I'll get that posted for y'all.

Such a nice family

Hope nothing happens to them...

"hope nothing happens to them"

scottsigler's picture
Nothing will, I promise. Why would anything happen to them?

And if Scott tells you it's just Kool-aid.....

MuchAdo's picture

you should believe that too.

If the FDO gives me kool-aid....

Nothing "scary"

Hmmm, it's Michigan, it's winter and there's some bad assed ex football player on the rampage (not to mention some alien spores)

What could possibly go wrong?

Oh, and while we're on the subject of Michigan and winter, wouldn't an ancestor - triangles crossover be cool. Or how about ancestors infected by triangles! Yeah I know the probe has checked for the dominant species blah-de-blah but a few rogue spores hitting ancestors would be awesome - as if they weren't bad enough already ;)


Cheers...
