Re: Falling Skies
Hm, on one hand we have the trailer which looks very promising but on the other we have TNT which doesn't produce big budget shows (CGI in Leverage hurts my eyes often, even though it's not a sci-fi show). But I'll give it a shot or maybe even two.

Re: Falling Skies
I'm still skeptic. It looks like a mixture of Skyline and The Walking Dead

Re: Falling Skies
you know what? I hope it won't suck.
I really like these Post apocalyptic type shows - for some reason it reminds me of Jeremiah

Re: Falling Skies
Well. I have a hard time taking Noah Wyle seriously after The Librarian 1 and 2..
But I hope it is good! Post-apocalyptic stories is one of mye favourites
Not just the Spanish maine my love. The entire ocean. The entire world!

Re: Falling Skies
By the look of the posters your guys provided, it reminded me instantly about V. I'll definitely give it a try although V was shit! (Sorry to all V fans)

Re: Falling Skies
Falling Skies has received a positive response from critics. Review aggregate Metacritic awarded the series a score of 70%, based on 22 reviews, indicating Generally favorable reviews.
Tim Goodman of the Hollywood Reporter gave the series a positive review, stating "...the entertainment value and suspense of Falling Skies is paced just right. You get the sense that we'll get those answers eventually. And yet, you want to devour the next episode immediately." Thomas Conner of the Chicago Sun-Times called it "...a trustworthy family drama but with aliens." He went on to say "It's "Jericho" meets "V," with the good from both and the bad discarded. It'll raise the summer-TV bar significantly." Ken Tucker from Entertainment Weekly gave the series a B+ and said of the show "A similar, gradually developed, but decisive conviction makes Falling Skies an engaging, if derivative, chunk of dystopian sci-fi." He continued by saying "...Falling Skies rises above any one performance; it's the spectacle of humans versus aliens that draws you in." In a review in the Boston Herald, Mark A. Perigard gave the series a B grade, saying "Don't look now, but Falling Skies could be a summer obsession."

Bring. It. On. I've read several reviews and they're all positive. It may be the new BSG.

Re: Falling Skies
ohh man. i don't even know what to say. they promised they will not make mistakes like in Jericho and The Walking Dead and V. and yet they did. partially too slow. nothing new. people were still dumbasses even after 7-8 months of invasion/apocalypse.
tho there are no new sci-fi show's any more out there, i'll give it few episodes chance.

You are more generous than I am. I couldnt even sit through 20 minutes of this. It felt like copy-paste from the Walking Dead which I am not that big of a fan of in the first place.
