So I finally had time to watch the River last night on Hulu and of course, the 1st episode is unavailable. I did watch the 2nd episode - dolls are creepy - and enjoyed it - did I miss alot not getting to watch the 1st episode?

    Well, the first episode sets up the story of who Emett Cole is (I think thats his name, totally drawing a blank right now) and why and how they came to start searching for him. The supernatural element they find in the first episode isnt a very scary thing, but it is kinda violent. Like Paranormal Activity kind of violent. So, for story reasons, the first episode is a good one to watch. Did you check on www.abc.com (I think thats the network)? I think they have the episodes online.

    after the first two episodes I was kinda weary about it, but after that it just kept getting good.

    AAAAHHHHH It was really good, really disturbing! Typical Paranormal Activity element in this last one. Its unsettling so much that I am not sure I want to watch it again any time soon. Maybe to show someone else, but not for my own amusement. Lets just say, that maybe a season 2 will come our way, but because horror stories never have a happy ending, maybe there wont be one...

    edit: never realized how funny your ticker is, it made me laugh just now I dont know why o_o

    I wouldnt mind a season two and I do think there could be one, ***************SPOILER ALERT**************** since the Boiuna wouldnt let them leave it we still dont know what happened to them and who found the tapes? so I think at the least they could make a season two explaining that ya know?

    I think there might be a season two that explains who found them, because only for the past few episodes it has been saying something along the lines of "this is the recovered tapes" So, we can already assume that everyone there is either dead or lost at this point in time in the Boiuna, and another crew some how went into the Boiuna to find them and recover the tapes. Either way SOMEONE went into the Boiuna and made it out. I want to know who and how!

    unrelated note- freaked my brother out by singing 'row row row your boat' in a really light whisper while he studying. Sat in the luggage closet for a few minutes before he got there to do it. xD

    Yea. Just the thought of all of them dead despite all the crap they went through is disheartening. But makes for great horror writing.

    He ran out of the room when he opened the closet and I popped out. Feelsgoodman.

    I mother effing hope so! THere needs to be because SOMEBODY found the tapes in the Boiuna, and the Boiuna didnt look like it was gonna let anyone out...


    ..fingers crossed?

    I finally get to read some of the earlier posts - as there was a spoiler alert so didn't want to read it

    I agree there has to be a second season - how else did the tapes resurface? I still want to know how that birthmark and necklace is linked to the Boiuna?

    We know that the girl is the special someone because of her birthmark. We know that the necklace is the symbol of that birthmark. We know that Emett was terrified about what he found and gave up finding the source. My hypothisis is that the only way they will get out is by going back and finding the source. If they can harness the source or contain it, they can escape. It may end with Emett dying by staying behind to contian the source, or the girl (i forrgot her name). Because she is very special she has something do with the source, and espcially since the Boiuna took interest in her as it possessed Lincoln. Also, I think the Boiuna is linked to something demonic in a biblical sense because Kurt was speaking to it in Latin. But I cant remember if he was trying to gaurd it, or keep it from getting out. I would expect the Boiuna to speak in Brazilian or something, not Latin.. but thats just me. Either way, I think the story is far from being over.. Espcially since Emett couldnt finish telling (gah whats her name) about the source.
