Is this the last season of Falling Skies? It seems that aliens and humans will fight together now.

Favorite line from this past season (even though its technically "borrowed" from another show):

"I'm gonna WISH you into the corn field" from Pope.

Great season finale. Not sure what could happen next. Hal turns into something. New alien has appeared. Just great.

Kristen. I don't know the answer about his fingers. A just always assumed he had broken one finger so he wrapped it to another one.

Wow....Wow...Wow...Can Spielberg work magic or what????? I am critical of my SciFi viewing and this one continues to impress week after week. The Finale last night came out of nowhere and left me begging for more. That is what quality TV should do!!!!! Will be waiting on pins and needles for next season. It kills me how long the gap is between ALL my shows.

Falling Skies Renewed for Season 3

From the article ====> TNT says the show is actually the top drama on ad-supported cable among adults 18-49 this summer--which sounds like a lot of caveats, but mainly that means that it's not getting the ratings of True Blood. The fact is it's hard to get 6 million viewers a week on basic cable (the series has been averaging 5.9 million in total viewers over the first five episodes, or 3.9 million live plus same day), so that's pretty impressive news.

There may not be that many post on this, but TNT renewed it. I enjoy the show.

I cannot understand how there could be a lack of interest with Steven Spielberg at the helm. The effects and storyline is amazing and it is off season for all the established premium channel Sunday shows....Dexter, Game of Thrones, Boardwalk, Walking Dead etc that usually command audiences attention. True Blood is back, but if your like me and DVR you can watch multiple shows.

since there is such a lack of interest, does this not bode well for this series???

I watch it typically Monday - Tuesday Night... To late to watch when the new episode is shown on Sunday evening...

Yes, each episode passed by so quickly I wanted more. Guess that is a sign of a good show.

I stuck it through, and it was passable summer entertainment. It's been renewed, presumably for next summer.

I just watched the first episode last night with my son. Maybe it was just my mood, but I got to the end and just wasn't as impressed with it as I expected to be.
