Falling Skies (TNT) - News/Speculation/Discussion

[BayGateScape]

I'll probably watch, but I'm tired of this sort of concept.

1. Alien Invasion
2. Apocalyptic situation.

Need better stories

It is a pretty basic concept. How good it ends up is in the execution.

[Aerilon]

It looks good from what I've seen of the trailer, though it's more a survival story I think, than it is about an invasion. Think of the Walking Dead, but instead of zombies, we have aliens.

I'm so anxious about this. I love post-apocaliptic series like Jeremiah.
There is also a trailer and short comic book:

Looks pretty sweet. Glad this isn't on SyFy i.e. looks like it has quite a big budget. Anyone know what the release date is? I know it's in Summer, but when? My guess would be May-June time.

isnt spielberg done with alien invasion?

When did he said that? He after all has made his money with aliens or big toothed creatures from Encounters of the Third kind to the amazing miniseries Taken and from Jaws to Jurassic Park.

Besides, he should stick with what he does best.

The trailer does look wicked, an I look forward to seeing which stories they will tackle in the future.

It already looking several times better than V ever looked.

I am not sure why everyone calling this unoriginal, I cannot recall a series which dealt with a full frontal assault by aliens before usually it all cloak an dagger stuff, like V, Earth Final Conflict, First Wave, Threshhold.

Although I could change my mind if Steven ever delivers on his promise of a sequel for Taken.

Personally, I hope this show is as good as it looks. We can use all the good science fiction we can get on television.

Anyone been reading with the Fallen Skies comic on the TNT.

The story line is sounding pretty good to me so far. Also found a website for Mass 2 that seems part of the show as well

I am really looking forward to this show. I really hope it ends up being a success.

[Sp!der]

I think the Trailer looks awesome, and as much as I like Elizabeth Mitchell it looks better than V.

To be honest, from the clips I have seen in season two of V it not going to be hard to make this look better.

An Spielberg knows special effects as well and how to make a show look good.

[VampyreWraith]

This looks good, I'm looking forward to it.

[the fifth man]

It can't come soon enough for me. I am always looking for another good show to watch.

yes... I think these days there are very few real good shows out there so I hope Falling Skies will rock my tv...

I saw a preview for this when I went to see Thor this past weekend. I was surprised to see a TV show trailer in a movie theater. Looked pretty good.

[KEK]

Pretty sure they ran the SGU trailer in theatres too.

[pisces27]

I'm going to give it a try. It starts June 19th, 2 eps on that night. Colin Cunningham (Major Davis SGI) is also in it.

I thought that was him in the preview. He just looks different with long hair.
