Falling Skies, Season 1

I love this show so much. I wish they would make a remake or spin off. I watched it over and over.

I'm glad I came across this show. Finshed with season one and will be getting season 2.

The action sequences didn’t make sense. Alien mechs with laser targeting miss? Assault rifle rounds bounce off alien armor, but a shotgun blast kills them? Skinners (Aliens) travel alone without weapons instead of moving in military squads (see episode three)

The human characters have personalities that evolve and become believable, and their situations pull one into wanting that next episode. Yet, I keep thinking about how did these 6 or 8 legged “skitters” develop the technology for inter-planetary-system travel without opposable thumbs? Or, without some way, any way, of building, holding and manipulating the tools necessary to build such means of transport. Maybe I’ll learn how in coming episodes and further seasons, but right now I’m thinking such was not thought out by the series’s creators.

The first season of this show was one of the best yet. Loved how the second mass was so independent and how developed the characters became

Borrring!!!! And did I mention, significantly less Sci-Fi !! Third rate writer team and an even worse Director! Did you guys have to give minute-by-minute, blow-by-blow account of all daily sentimental touchy-feely feelings of each character? Did you guys get guarantees of run for several seasons - "take all the time you need to slowly build a plot"? Is that what your audience crave in a Sci-Fi? Or did you really start on a soap that evolved into a Sci-Fi? What happened to 'keep the audience glued for more' or 'keep 'em interested'? Do you remember 'Aliens'? You guys successfully unhooked your audience with all mundane crap!!!

This show is one if the best I've seen that I like personally. It's just does.

So good, absolutely love it!!

Get it! Super good show

I have heard so many good things about this show but am unable to watch due to the lack of captions. Please some one somewhere add captions as a viewing option.
