TV: Falling Skies SE2 EP8

Falling Skies
Action, Sci-Fi, Thriller

Like that kid - Jenny - wasn't planted in the middle of the road to get what information they could? It's the same as Karen coming back. Why the hell didn't someone tell Matt (Maxim Knight) not to tell her anything? So stupid! Now they're going to come and take down Charleston aren't they? Or do you think she was part of the rebels? PS. Did you see her mutations? Cooooooool.

So what about Maggie (Sarah Carter)? Pope (Colin Cunningham) is a criminal too isn't he? There's got to be more to that story, that is not big bad secret... I mean, the world is ending, we're being invaded by an alien race, who cares who was in prison before that? Can you really blame her? If Hal (Drew Roy) is really that bothered about it then he can move onto the next hussy in the 2nd Mass. 'Tis a stupid thing to be angry at when you could die at any time. And the baby? He cannot be pissed about that, what has it got to do with him? Absolutely nothing!

This episode was a tad disappointing after the awesomeness of the last few eps. Very much seemed like a filler with no umph, which if not what you want this close to seasons end!

Two episodes left!

I've watched this episode a few times already and keep having to rewatch it because I wasn't paying enough attention the other times and missed bits. I think this show is getting too good to miss bits now...

Seeeeee! I told you Karen (Jessy Schram) was a total lying biatch! Leading Ben (Connor Jessup) straight into an ambush! Thank goodness for Tom (Noah Whyle) and Hal (Drew Roy) hey? If the zombie apocalypse were to hit tomorrow, I would look differently at my history teachers...

I love that Matt (Maxim Knight) is starting to be taken seriously. Training kids would be the first thing I would do. You cant be watching them all the time, the best way to make sure they stay alive is to teach them how to look after themselves! Who knows, the aliens might underestimate the kids and then we'd have some kinda leeway somewhere, somehow. Look how well he did this episode! Excellent!

Jamil (Brandon Jay McClaren)! Noooo! *sobs* What an awesome death scene though! Wow! Almost as good as some of the ones on McClaren's previous show, Harper's Island. Had to watch that bit again, so good! 

The giant alien, cooooooool. I totally woulda shot it too if I was Tom... Glad he had the balls to do it. Karen being so haughty as she's being led to her 'Master' and then her face when she found out Tom had shot him! Haha, suck on that Karen! Ner, ner!

Now that Ben's gone off on his own do you think they are going to split the showtime between Ben & The Resistance and The 2nd Mass? That would be cool but I think they will most likely follow the 2nd Mass and we'll only get little snippets of Ben until he runs into them again.

I also think Charleston is a sham, there's nothing there...
