Hope you like it - I worked hard on the commercials for it! Looks like the next few episodes hold up.

RE: OT: Falling Skies on TNT
I just finished watching it on the DVR and I really liked it. This show seems a lot more plausible and "understandable" than many other sci fi type shows that didn't last very long and lost my attention early on.

RE: OT: Falling Skies on TNT
I watched it and I'm intrigued. It could be very good but hopefully they'll fill in more holes and move at a quicker pace to develop characters. Reminds me of "Jeremiah" but with aliens. I'll keep watching for now but they'll lose me if it doesn't get beyond mundane street battles, humans fighting street gangs, etc.

RE: OT: Falling Skies on TNT
I enjoyed it. It was engaging and it had a consistent storyline. I didn't mind the street battles and lack of big special effects scenes because I know for a fact Spielburg is saving the big stuff for the rest of the season. Why put all the flashy stuff in the pilot?
On another note, I was getting worried that sci-fi as a whole was dead, on television at least. With the cancellation of Stargate SG1, Atlantis, and Universe the so called "sci-fi" station (SyFy) is all wrestling and fake ghost shows... So let's hope Falling Skies brings in some great ratings and helps the sci-fi genre get back on its feet!

RE: OT: Falling Skies on TNT
I watched the Sci Fi Channel back when it first started. Shows like V (original), Dark Waters, Friday the 13th the Series, etc were the norm. I love that channel and hope it can recover from the WWE virus it has picked up as of late.

Doctor Who has jacked up the special effects budget and it actually has hurt the show.
