    I love Graceland. That was one hell of a cliffhanger they ended this season on.

    One thing I love about Defiance, I don't think I've mentioned yet is that they use songs in their alien languages on the soundtrack.

    Well this I did not know. I'll have to find the soundtrack and give a listen.

    Guess I'll add Graceland to the Watch List also.

    It isn't really a regular thing, they may have done that two or three times, and one of those times was a song with English lyrics about Ryetso and Irzu and whoever the other races worship.

    I'll admit, it is a bit odd we haven't heard anything yet. Both seasons 1 and 2 began filming in September 2012 and 2013, respectively, and here we are half way through September 2014 and we haven't heard anything regarding if it's returning or not.

    Don't most shows usually announce if they will be back either before or fairly soon after the end of the season? If so then it is kind of concerning that we haven't heard anything yet.

    Thankfully Season 2 kind of brought most of the series main threads to a close, but the cliffhanger aspect of that finale could put us in another Farscape Season 4 situation...

    Under normal circumstances, I'd agree. But I don't think SyFy has announced anything about any of their shows. A bit understandable, they've recently had a major overhaul of their executive staff who are eager to get more sci-fi. IMO, Defiance stands a good chance of coming back since it seems more inline with what the new executives want, actual science fiction. But that's pure speculation on my part and should be treated accordingly.

    I didn't know about the executive staff overhaul, that could be part of it. It would also explain the sudden shift towards more straight sci-fi, I'd been wondering what brought that about. I thought maybe they just got tired of people complaining about the lack of sci-fi on Syfy.

    Yay! Though season 2 was grating towards the end, I am intrigued by the ending and interested to see what direction things go in.

    ^Yeah. If I had watched the second season "week-to-week" I think I might have found certain things grating as well.

    However, I watched the whole season in a long-weekend and rather enjoyed it.

    Think I'll do that for season 3 as well.

    Well with the main arc thing finished it will be interesting to see where they go with season 3.

    Someone is going to be 8 months pregnant at the beginning of Season 3.

    Berlin from Nolan?

    Berlin from Tommy?

    Amanda from Nolan?

    Amanda from Niles?

    Irisa from Tommy?

    :)

    My vote is for double Tommy.

    Although two Nolan spawns could have hilarious consequences.

    Oh PLEASE no, I've had about enough of Nolan barking "MY DAUGHTER" every other line. Give him another daughter or a son and they might as well send in a Nolan-bot to do the acting.

    The E-Rep is at war with Canada.

    The E-Rep just lost it's capital.

    Canada is supposed to strike hard now and take over completely.

    Opportunity, traction and leverage.

    That is if the loss of Manhattan Island did have a catastrophic effect on the coordination of the war.

    Everyone is going to be playing Ice Football!
