Falling Skies has gotten steadily better since the (IMO...) poor pilot. Although I haven't watched last week's yet.

Great mood and some very fine moments.
Weak storylines and writing. Lets see where it goes. |

If you have Netflix streaming there's a British series called "Survivors" that's similar story line to "The Walking Dead". Only about 1% of society survived a massive flu like outbreak and their fighting for resources and to survive in general.
Not as good as TWD but it might help hold you over until October. |

My guess is this show goes in the toilet quickly.....Darabont is one of the best talents in Hollywood IMO.

Well, some people argue that it went into the toilet last season (not me, but that's what some say) and that Darabont being gone is a plus, but I don't see how anybody could spin Glen Mazzara taking over as a good thing; his resume post-The Shield is crap.
The whole idea of AMC budget-cutting and all those notes from the network just makes it sound like there's no way this is going to work. Which is amazing considering the finale was the most-watched episode of any drama in basic cable history. So they reward it by cutting the budget and firing the show-runner. Genious! |

I agree with Baby Lee. I liked the show, but a lot of it was shit. Very weak story lines. The plot progressed too quickly, the relationships were pasted together with sugar water and I found it hard to care. Add that to the terrible acting and the horrible southern accents of our Boondock compadre and the show itself took it's toll on me.
I found myself hoping the terrible actors would die off. Most of the cast would be gone though if that were the case. |

Great idea for a show, nice pilot.
Wasted opportunity. Will not be missed. |
