Falling Skies	comment	Falling Skies (2011-2015) is a Steven Spielberg and DreamWorks Television Alien Invasion TV series for TNT.Noah Wyle (ER) stars as Tom Mason, a former college professor who becomes the second-in-command of a group of soldiers and civilians (the 2nd Massachusetts or just the "2nd Mass" for short) struggling against an occupying alien force. Moon Bloodgood (Terminator Salvation) co-stars as Anne Glass, a pediatrician who works with the survivors to help them cope with the traumatic situation.Season one concentrates on the survivors trying to get by in the Boston area, and ends in the realization of how little the humans actually know about their oppressors. Season two deals with their efforts to get to a possible safe zone in South Carolina. Season 3 deals with humanity's uncertainty concerning a group of alien allies who have arrived. Season 4, dealing with the 2nd Mass having to deal with being incarcerated in a ghetto and the next phase of the aliens' plan aired in 2014, with the show's fifth season dealing with a march to Washington D.C. for the final showdown.

Falling Skies / int_1049848f	type	Aliens Speaking English
Falling Skies / int_1049848f	comment	Aliens Speaking English: Averted, although the aliens still use human-like pointing and gestures, suggesting some degree of cognitive overlap. The aliens can communicate with each other and with harnessed children and mechs by means of radio frequencies. This is apparently a very low-power, short range ability, since the captive Skitter was unable to use it to call for help even when the cage was open. One episode spends a fair chunk of time showing us a character attempting to communicate in various ways with a prisoner, including whether it can hear English, differentiate English syllables, understand 2D pictures, and understand 2D pictures that are abstract representations of complex 3D ideas and semi-pop-culture. Eventually the Skitter tries to use a (re)harnessed kid to communicate, but his father intervenes before they get far. Season 2 has harnessed individuals notably Karen acting as interpreters. Played straight with the Volm, who apparently have learned to speak English.

Falling Skies / int_143939c1	comment	Trailers Always Spoil: For the episode "Grace", the promo immediately before it it showed Rick putting the harness back on his back. Rick doesn't actually put it on until 45 minutes through the hour-long episode. As if the promos for "Death March" didn't lean on this heavily enough with the group standing on the bridge looking into the distance, one of the "after show" commercial promos during the program had Wil Wheaton asking "So what are they going to do now that they are in Charleston?" And the promos for "The Price of Greatness" included Terry O'Quinn's character mentioning suspicion of Tom's time on the alien spaceship, but everything was fine and dandy for most of the episode, so you knew things were going to go sour eventually. And then there's the promos for the Season 2 finale, which flat-out spoiled the very last scene. Trailers for Season 4 and for "Evolve or Die" in particular don't actually show Jeanne as a harnessed adult creature, but make it easy to guess that that's the case. Doesn't make it any less heartbreaking.

When he comes across a girl with a motorcycle he says he's been walking for several days and needs to borrow her motorcycle. I guess the Skitters took all the bikes. Motorcycles go much faster than bikes, and the distance from Michigan to Boston would necessitate a motorcycle, a bike would take way too long.

"Death March" also, as they simply stay in cars at night driving the final push to Charleston. Season 3 gives us two in a row, "Search and Recovery" (Mostly Tom and Pope in the woods) and "Be Silent and Come Out" (Almost all takes place by a building and in a hospital room), and then "Strange Brew" which has Tom flashing back to before the invasion and no complicated alien sets. Another two-in-a-row in the final season which only rely on new locations and costumes, "Respite" which mostly features Tom Mason stuck at a farmhouse with little special effects and set dressing required, and "Everybody Has Their Reasons" where they are at a military base but still doesn't have much in the way of aliens or CGI.

Falling Skies / int_77552932	comment	Character Shilling: In season 1, happened to Jimmy. Jimmy, being just a kid, screwed up, a lot, but Weaver insisted he's a good fighter constantly and praised him quite a bit when he really should have told him to stay back and give him less important roles. Due to his age, its understandable that he'd make so many mistakes, but that doesn't excuse the fact he was constantly allowed to go out and do work he clearly wasn't qualified for. Fixed in Season two, where he's shown to fairly competent with a sniper rifle, only for him and Ben to attempt to take on three Skitters up close, with Jimmy charging at the skitter while using his sniper rifle as a club, and ends up getting himself killed.

It's even worse by Season 5, as all of the Skitters are cannibalistic and no longer rely on tactics; they usually resort to Zerg Rushes. The Overlords, who usually took at least an entire season to defeat, are now Smug Snakes who are typically taken out in the same episode they're introduced in.

Harris gets within reach of the Skitter he's been taunting ever since it was captured. Hal infiltrating a group of six harnessed children (which are guarded/led by a single skitter) to save his brother. Maybe humans all look the same to the skitters, but you would at least expect them to be able to count. Though this one actually works. In "Saturday Night Massacre", a group of people walk out to the Espheni convinced that by showing they won't fight they will be allowed to live. The Mechs mow them all down without even stopping. When Anne decides to take her baby and leave America's strongest defensive position without telling anybody and without taking any sort of weapon with her, she's quickly cornered by the enemy.

Most sapient alien species are said to be fairly docile. The Volm, for instance, are somewhat bewildered by the idea that humans want to fight even after a superior allied alien force has entered the theater, as none of their other indigenous allies ever showed a similar inclination. Humans — alongside the Volm, Espheni, and rebel Skitters — buck the galactic trend toward pacifism.

Falling Skies / int_eeb4a5eb	type	Anti-Climax
Falling Skies / int_eeb4a5eb	comment	Anti-Climax: Happens multiple times in the Season 3 finale. After the Volm weapon is used against the Espheni tower, Tom and his allies realize they barely made a dent and that a battle is about to commence. But the "battle" is nothing more than two airships that try to attack, and Hal quickly shoots them down. And then the tower itself collapses afterwards. Tom finally confronting Karen. After much buildup throughout the season, Karen meets Tom, Hal, Maggie, Weaver, and Ben with only a few Skitters and a Mech accompanying her. She surrenders and tries to warn Tom that the Volm aren't all they seem, but Tom just tells her to "go fuck yourself" and abruptly shoots her. And then Karen's guards are taken down in under a minute. After spending the entire episode trying to figure out whether or not Lourdes needs to be put out of her misery, Alexis (who has gained some kind of bizarre new ability) comes by and fixes everything. How? By touching her face. By doing so, all the worms inside Lourdes fall out her eyes into Alexis' hands. And then she calmly crushes them. Also happens in the series finale: After spending the last several episodes trying to figure out if Isabella or Maggie is his true love, Hal, in the middle of battle, abrupt asks Maggie if she will marry him. She says yes. Tom's climactic battle with the Espheni Queen...isn't. After she starts sucking on his blood, Tom grabs the Dornian weapon, lets it poison his blood, and the Queen combusts as a result of consuming his tainted blood. Pope's final confrontation with Tom. Heavily wounded and exhausted, Pope abruptly sneaks up on Tom after finding out about Anne's death, confesses that seeing Anne die gave him no satisfaction, and then begs Tom to kill him. Tom says no. And then Pope dies.

Red Eye insists on talking to Tom Mason - alone - thus locking Weaver and the rest of the 2nd Massachusetts out of critical info which in retrospect wasn't really one-on-one material. When Tom interrogates an Overlord in season 2. The Overlord spins some possible truths about what is going on until Tom asks what the overlords are doing there in the first place. The Overlord essentially tells Tom it's none of his business.

Falling Skies / int_f314f8c4	comment	Traveling at the Speed of Plot: Tom Mason taking a boat back from Boston in "Journey to Xibalba". Considering what a slog it was to for the 2nd Mass to get to Charleston in Season 2, and how much of a target a boat would be, it's pretty much "We have to get Tom back to Charleston next episode." Exaggerated in the Season 5 premiere. At the end of Season 4, Tom is trapped in the middle of space and has no control over his spaceship. Somehow, he manages to crash land on earth with only a few scratches on his body, and he returns to the 2nd Mass fifteen minutes into the episode.

It's very common in science fiction to do this, but a Galaxy is really, REALLY big, and they are really REALLY far apart. Most folks don't have a good feel on how big and far apart solar systems are, and galaxies are that times a million. Averted in the season 4 finale when Cochise uses understatement and points out "Space is not a finite environment"
