Suspense is the anticipation of action. If there is no action EVER, all the suspense is wasted.

We've seen some action lately, thank goodness.

I think they handled Bree's dad's death in a sloppy manner in "Bree's Dad is Dead".

The "In Memory to Bree's Dad" was cheese.

Come on! In two years time are you telling me that Daniel never learned his name? He went to school with Bree briefly, he must know at least her last name. "In Memory of Dr. Smith" or whatever his last name is, would be more realistic and more personal.

Granted, maybe they wouldn't want to put Bree's last name in keeping with the realism aspect. However, they could have put "In Memory of Mr. S" or his first name. I'm sure after knowing Bree for two years and breaking into her dad's office, Daniel must know his first name.

I think you are being a bit unfair.

Sure, there are some things I don't like either (like the most recent video about her dad being dead but it did have a lot of lit elements that held secrets) but still, they don't just sloppily put the plot together like you said.

They showed the actual drug- we got to research it. We don't need some stupid doctor examine bree in a freak accident to tell us what it was for. It's to make more red blood cells.

Bree has been other emotions. Like in the homeless video she was telling Daniel to back off. She will break soon and "come of age." Be patient darnit.

Jonas isn't pointless. It's supposed to add a bit more reality to it if they reach out to some one who offered help. supposedly he watched the videos and wanted to help. It's a good thing he did cuz they'd be still doing nothing in a warehouse still.

Yes, there needs to be more action but that's not what this series is about. It's about seeing beyond the surface. Every image you see has a meaning. There are hidden clues. It's about figuring it out and letting your imagination drive you crazy as you wait.

Kudos to the creators. Don't worry. Some of us appreciate your work. At least you're doing something with your lives rather than be a person online who complains about random things and threatens to stop watching if it doesn't get better. You have tons of fans. We're not going to mutiny.
