Falling Skies Season 4 discussion thread - Spoilers

figures. He sucks and this show is so bad now. Why did the old show runner leave?

From what I understand he wanted to write more sci-fi novels or short stories. I don't know why he couldn't have waited a few years, but when you are bored, you move on.
 
^^^It's a show with one continuing storyline, so the first producers they go to are producers with experience managing a show with one continuous storyline.

It's the only reason I can think for Jane Frigging Espenson to get tagged for nuBSG way back when... :shrug:
 
The Lourdes actress is off the main credits, so I guess she won't be magically reappearing anytime soon. They never knew how to write for her and they couldn't even come up with a good way to get rid of her. :lol:
 
Ah, well. I had it in the back of my mind that she might be resurrected somehow. When they did that panning shot of her, I expected her eyes to pop open.
 
And im out... omg this show got stupid.

I gave up a long time ago (The first episode this season.) so what made you ditch now? Did the aliens bring Hitler back from the dead in the Nazi Moon base?

Actually....You're joking but that actually sounds a lot more plausible in light of the last episode. At this point I'm only watching because I love watching atomic train wrecks in slow motion.
 
And im out... omg this show got stupid.

I think I dropped Under the Dome after the second episode. Bitten was either episode 2 or 3. I never made it to the midseason of Agents of Shield. I have no idea why I'm still watching Falling Skies.
 
I gave up on Under The Dome when Longmire started in its time slot. Bitten was shite from the first episode. Agents of SHIELD started okay and got great after Winter Soldier.

Falling skies? I loved this show. Loved. Championed. Defended.

Until this season.

Let's go to the moon and blow shit up? Seriously? This is the same Tom Mason who shepherded this group of misfits through all these trials and tribulations?

And what kills me is he quoted the JFK speech, and took the quote out of context the exact same way everybody else does. I thought this guy was an historian.
 
Only reason to really watch it at this point is that it makes for a great drinking game.

-Every time Tom makes a speech
-Every time people are inexplicably inspired by a Tom speech
-Every time Pope remains skeptical after a Tom speech
-Every time Pope is an ass to someone
-Every time Lexi whines about humanity
-Every time humans are mentioned as being special
-Ever time a character who could easily be saved dies
-Every time a Mason child runs off/is kidnapped/goes missing
-Every time the Espheni/bad guys pause long enough to let the main character's live
-Every time Hal/Maggie relationship is in trouble
-Every time someone not a Mason makes a sacrifice for the Mason family
