its only going to get canceled with no conclusion like all the other good sifi lately v outcast the event just to name a few

It's already been renewed for a new season next year of 10 episodes. Ratings have been holding steady, and TNT needs much fewer viewers than ABC. 4 Million + is a healthy audience for TNT, so, it's doing fine so far.

Falling Skies is in the cable top-25!

Lookit that, #17. Suck it, Sponge-Bob!

Nice, steady ratings.

This is a solid, if a bit too-predictable, series, and with this week's ep, they've opened up the story possibilities nicely. I look forward to many seasons of summertime viewing.

Oh wow, I'm really surprised by the shows people like to watch. I had no idea shows like Pawn Stars, Royal Pains, Rizzoli, Suits, etc would be more popular than the likes of Falling Skies, True Blood etc. And Breaking Bad isn't even on the list?

Falling Skies has the best demo on TNT, which is all that counts. I can see why Breaking Bad isn't wildly popular - it's kinda off-putting, isn't it? People like shows about nice people. As to why pawn store shows are popular, you got me there. Why doesn't someone make a show about gem show enthusiasts or janitors? Apparently everything is interesting.

1/2 the people in my office love Pawn Stars. It's the 'blue collar,' 'joe six pack' version of Antique Road Show. It's watching the same shit without having to admit you're watching PBS.

Everyone wants to believe their junk in the closet is worth big bucks.
