I'm 10 minutes into this episode and it's already exhausting. Are they just going to go round in circles and keep the 4400 detained all season? Does the CW not have the budget to film outside the walls of the detention center?

@ciku The detention itself is not bothering me that much - its episode 2 and keeping them away from society makes sense while figuring out what happened.
What bothers me is the cruelty. The writers seemingly want to show us a combination of detention camps for illegals and cruelty against black people.
But it just makes no sense, they go out of their way to be cruel to them, which is the opposite of what you want to do when you need people to cooperate.
Not to mention, that they can sue the hell out of them for it, since its clearly punishment for all while just one of the group (technically two) did "something wrong" ("escaping", which isn't even a crime - since the detainment is probably somewhere in the grey zone legally).
Then there is the "protagonist" who ordered the glass walls to stay in Episode 1. From the reaction the lesbian had, the writers seemingly thought they were writing a "strong female character" while they just wrote a dick (yes, she isn't bitchy, being a dick is the right insult for her.)
I'm 3 minutes into the episode and I cannot do this. Another musical episode with no storyline? No. Just NO!! What next? Riverdale on ice? Omg, if the writers have ran out of ideas, why can't they just write a good final season and cut their losses?
Edit: I skipped through the whole thing, so let me save you the grief of watching. All you need to know is that Betty and Archie kiss and realize they may have feelings for one another. Then, skip to 40:45 and watch the last few minutes.

@ciku Thank you for saving 42 minutes of my life that I, otherwise, would not have been able to get back. I don't know why they insist on keep doing these musical episodes. If I wanted a musical I would actual seek one out. So annoying! So thank you again!
I can't believe neither doctor stood to the side of or behind a patient that just had hip surgery. That's not an operational error, it's just common sense. Not to mention if she had hit her head, then the hospital would be facing a huge lawsuit.

@strykar If they'd been standing by her side then they'd have to catch her. For dramatic effect the camera pans out so that we see her fall and it has the desired effect on the audience. It is a TV show after all.

@ciku Yeah I can’t stand that they started the musical crap on The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina as well.
