TNT usually doesnt post any episodes online till a week after the show aired, no idea if they distribute to Amazon then as well.

The first two episodes are on Amazon

Has anyone noticed that Noah Wiley ALWAYS carries an AK-47? Last week when he went in to talk to Weaver, the Captain pulled a Kalashnikov out of a bag and handed it to him. Ol' Noah must be like me, a lover of the AK.

This season I see a lot of more modern assault rifles being carried. Last season it was mostly AR platforms like the M-16 and a few M-4s, and of course plenty of AKs.

In the comic book released before the series which was supposed to cover the events between Tom boarding the spaceship, and his return 3 months later, the group raided an old Army base looking for weaponry. My guess is that is where they got them from.

Finally saw episode 3 on amazon last night. Wow. This show is so well written.

Oh yeah, I HATE Red Eye

IMHO, Falling Skies and The Walking Dead are the two best non-comedy shows on television right now.

Episode 4:

Rogue Gangsters in area steal Hal's bike. Ben tracks them down with his super skiter senses. And the gangsters are all kids who are camping on their own because they feel that the adults are the reasons they get harnassed.

Tom and Anne continue to fall in love.

One of the kids turns out to be Weaver's daughter. Nice heartfelt reunion because Weaver had pretty much decided his oldest daughter was dead.

A very cruel group of writers would kill off Weaver's daughter before the end of the epiosde. lets see what happens.

Apparently Weaver has anger management problems. They return to the rest of the gang to find them all taken by skitters to a convienent nearby Harnessing factory.

Leader of the gang defies Weaver's orders and heads out on his own, and takes Matt with them and Weaver's daughter to rescuse their friends. I smell trouble.

Matt, Weavers Daugter and entire group get captured and placed on a massage table turned into a harness table. We get to see the actual harnessing in process on one of the members. The harnesses themselves attach themselves to living organisims. They crawl up the back and attach at the head first, and then down.

Harnesses appear to actually be living organisms. One of them slid down and attacked weaver during a rescue attempt, without any skitters around.

Whole group is rescued minus one. Weaver saves his daughters life, then she saves his life in return...aww

I just want to admit, the harnessing scene was one of the creepiest scenes I have seen on this series. Those harnesses are just creepy, almost like the combination of a snake and a leach.

Weaver's Daughter elects to leave with the rest of her group and no go with her Father to Charleston. She has started a new life, and cant leave her friends who need her help.

Episode ends with Weaver crying for the first time.

Next Preview releaserd has Ricky returning and Ben bowing down to his alien overlords... Looks like Tom has realized that he cant control his actions.

WOW, incredible episode. possibily my favorite as of yet, this show continues to amaze me. I find myself truely carring about the lives of the characters, and was tore up when Weaver's daughter left him at the end of the episode.

I had a feeling she wasnt staying, because they hadnt announced any new characters. But I agree, this was probably one of the best episodes of the series.

I actually jumped watching the harnessing process. Giving those things essentially a mind of their own is just...yikes.

Agreed, that was disturbing.

Just saw it on Amazon. Amazing

Just a few short hours...

Short hours and a day for me
