At least they know how to use weapons, scavenge, kill the enemy, use the right motorcycles and are not that stupid.
Unlike the Walking Dead (who would be much better off if they would just get a damn D-11 dozer). |

When Col. Weaver put his hand on Mason's shoulder as they looked upon Lexi in the chrysalis and said, "She'll always be your little girl", I almost puked up blood.
This fucker has turned into a never-ending trek across the country fighting people, fighting aliens, getting captured, breaking loose, yadda yadda yadda. It's just like Revolution (what ever happened to that show?) and The Last Ship. They never seem to offer any hope that there will be a resolution to the main plot line. They toss the plot out there in the first episode, then lose their way and just degenerate into boring details of the personal lives of the characters. Fuck 'em. If it's about defeating alien invaders, let's defeat the alien invaders - not get mired down in love stories and silly subplots about personal conflicts between the characters just to drag out the story. |

The premise for the series had great potential. Organized human resistance to an alien invasion. Strategy, battles, survival, heroism, relationships, sacrifice etc. It should have been a three year series with a definite conclusion.
However, the stupid Hollywood writers had to go full derp by bringing in all kinds of weird and silly shit like converting the children and other alien races. Another series ruined. Hardly worth watching nowadays. |

I really liked it at first cause it was (almost) different and somewhat plausible (plausible as in Batman is plausible because he's just a normal dude with no super powers) but now with this Lexi shit, well I do keep watching but dont recommend it to friends anymore.

You know what's missing on both The Walking Dead and Falling Skies are the simple moments in life, like taking a dump while reading a magazine and then wiping your ass with new toilet paper and washing your hands.
Or fresh tampons for the girls. |

This is a problem with every series that has an ongoing schedule. Season after season with no end in sight. The desperation for more drama, more over-the-top this or that heads off into stupid land. If you simply had a defined story arc in mind WITH AN ENDING then you'd see less of this kind of creeping stupidity.

It's definitely getting more stupid, which is a real bummer, because it started out so well. Really? Really? Are you kidding me or do you own stock in this. I am 8 episodes into the first season (I have S1-3 on DVD) and there are sooooooo many things stupid it is unbelievable. Most shows have firearm stupid embedded but Falling Skies thinks it is a virtue. To start with they are in Massachusetts. Where, after a total annihilation of the world's military does one find all kinds of full auto AK/AR/HK etc???? Not in Massachusetts. That is one of the last places What would you find in Massachusetts? With armories attacked by aliens and local gun shops/homes the only possible sources; hunting rifles and shotguns. No AKs would be found or if one was it would be a semi not class3. If you lucked out and got some police class 3 AR15s they would likely be 3 shot burst not full and you might find an MP5 or 2 in that local but most folks would have a 870 of R700/W70 type. Yet, you rarely see any bolt gun (The crazy women downtown had a Yugo Mauser M48, yeah that would take her arm of if she fired that 8mil) Hi caps mags abound and there is no need to go out with more than the one you have in the gun because it never runs dry. They fire 10 second burst (In under 3 seconds 30 rounds is gone) and imagine those A2 birdcages not climbing an inch even when kids are firing them. How much would it cost to get even a novice to advise them on simple basic firearm 101 lets not be idiots? Apparently more than they are willing to spend Wulfmann |
