Very disappointing

The plot sounded promising, with a very intriguing premise and I made it a point to watch the next few episodes. A few people die and it really gave you a sense of being swept along as the characters come to terms with the new reality they're faced with and try to understand the Dome. But the show has been ruined by a terrible script and even more terrible acting. By the 2nd and 3rd episodes the characters have fit perfectly into their 2-dimensional roles and now I couldn't care less about them. I don't plan to continue watching.
