My husband I have enjoyed science fiction since we were children. Now, we are in our 50’s and are enjoying the more sophisticated and graphically enhanced shows and movies. The story lines are not cheesy, and the relationship aspect and well paced shows have caught our interest. Falling Skies is a well thought out series.

This show jumped the shark when it introduced the second aliens who want to fight the first aliens. Somewhat reminiscent of Earth: Final Conflict.

Meantime, in the real world that the TNT PR release avoids strenuously, Falling Skies started with decent ratings in year 1 and quickly collapsed. Season 2 started lower than season one and ratings ebbed. while the current season 3 started lower than season 2, hitting a lower than 2 million viewers all-time low a couple of weeks ago.

But let’s renew this flop for another year of lower ratings!!!!

The lack of common sense of TNT and its brethren who are dedicated to pretending being successful instead of actually being successful is staggering.

The only show on TNT this summer with higher ratings than Falling Skies is Rizzoli & Isles. Yes, Falling Skies has better ratings this summer than Franklin & Bash, King & Maxwell, Major Crimes and Perception. So if you think Falling Skies should be canceled, then you must also think all of those other shows should be dumped too. Oh, and Falling Skies also has better ratings than the most recent season of Dallas, which was also renewed by TNT. And BTW, the word flop only applies to a show that gets horrible ratings in its first season. See: Monday… Read more »
