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.

And the keep dropping sub-plots with no resolution.

What happened to the skidder rebellion?

And screw that damn hybrid kid, someone please put a bullet in her and that damn traitor who worships her.

Now, let's talk about deployment.

What idiots patrol enemy invested territory bunched up and talking like morons and saying stuff like: I will check ahead and if I see something I will fire a warning shot!!
Really?

So the great 2nd goes on a recon and the lead has an MP5 9MM the hero professor Mason has an AK in 7.62X39 (5.45MM?) and his son has an AR15 (223)
Really???
He is supposed to be a history expert on uprisings and resistance so would have the slightest hint different calibers is an extreme danger to the people and mission.
If the MP5 engages and runs low or out of ammo, the AK gets hit and the AR jams you have 7.62 ammo but nothing it takes and same for the 223 ammo but have a functioning 9MM with no ability to use the ammo from the down guns.

That is ridiculous.
You send out the guys with same caliber weapons, you patrol in absolute quiet and you spread out to prevent an easy enemy burst from taking out the entire group.

This is basic 101 Scheise not classified information and if any of those liberal writers/producers asked any AR15 GD noob they would have made that show much more believable.

And, I am just scratching the surface on stupid, the easy most obvious stuff

Right now, Pope is the only redeeming quality in the show.

The photography is often so dark and murky that it's hard to see what's actually happening. It's as if they wanted to save money on scenery.

Yeah, the actress they picked for her doesnt make any sense.  You have a dark haired Mason and an oriental chick.  Lexi blooms into a young adult with zero features of her parents and is blond.  How many blond orientals do you see?

I'm really disappointed, the combat   storyline had so many great places to go with the arrival of the Volm.

Instead the writing appears to have been given over to a grade school kid; straight into the toilet.

Yeah, the Volm went home with their toys.  Cochese is scared shitless of the red glowing cocoon and no one seems to care what it might bring except for Pope.

Well Walking Dead was above it for the first 2-3 seasons then it went downhill now Falling Skies are going also.

Hate to say it but the only show I am looking forward to is Franklin and Bash.

Shaq is the one with them now, Cochese had some shit he had to go do....I'm an idiot for even knowing that.

The prof nailed it.  It's a show I love but they just keep destroying it.  They're giving it a 5th season,  so next year it's over. I hope they at least let it go out with a good ending.

They've just destroyed the lourdes character up. She started out as a whipping post, lost her love, became infected and controlled by the aliens.  Now she's just a bizarre hippie mind controlled tea bringing goof.

At least canceling southland means cudlitz could go to walking dead.  It looks like he's gonna kick ass as abraham.  

Wulfmann brings up alot of valid points, but I just suspend disbelief.  They're not all professional soldiers or even arfcommers.  Just dumb asses trying to fight a vastly superior force.

I watched the first two episodes this season, recorded the next four and canceled the last two weeks.  If I decide to continue watching, I'll catch it 'On Demand.'

Disappointing, however.

I really enjoyed the first two seasons. I can look past the silly criticisms like "where the hell did they get those guns in Massachusetts" lol

Those seasons had some good action and a reasonably plausible storyline (for somewhat cheesy sci fi).

Season 3 was pretty lame but still decent. This current season is more of a Sci fi channel soap opera. Just lame and nothing but retarded drama.
