The show is set on the premise that the world is on the brink of extinction by the hands of Aliens. 90% of the world's population was annihilated in just a few days. Most of the planet's energy sources and technology are rendered useless.
The show picks up six months after the aliens came to the planet. A group of resistance fighters called the 2nd Massachusetts are fighting against time to find a way to defeat the alien also known as "Skitters" with depleting resources.
The resistance is lead by retired Captain Weaver and Tom Mason (a Boston University professor before the invasion began.) Tom has three kids. Hal a sixteen year old student who is now a scout for the resistance is the eldest child. The middle child, Ben was caught by the Skitters. Hal and Tom are trying to look for him and a way to remove an alien attached to him and other children called the "Harness". And Matt is his youngest child.
I have to admit that the series didn't really attract my attention at first. But as the series progresses, I grew fond of watching it. It is just like the other show that I am watching about alien invasion called V. But the main difference is that in V, the aliens look like humans and could communicate using the human language. In V, at first they were putting a facade that they come in peace. In Falling skies, it is all out annihilation from the start. The series reminds of the movie called Independence day. I am quite interested enough to see how the series would progress. I can't wait to watch the next episode.
TNT seems to doing a lot of post apocalyptic TV series. This year they aired "The walking dead". The series is about a world filled with zombies just like the movie "Zombieland".
The long wait is over for TV series fans. Normally after months of waiting, Season premiere are aired on September. There are so many questions left hanging. And the answers are about to be revealed. Here are some of the TV series on my list
Chuck
While I was watching the last episode of season 3, I really thought that it would be the end of Chuck. After the defeating the crime Organization Fulcrum in season 2 and the Ring in Season 3, I thought they have tied up all loose ends. It seems that Chuck was already leaving the Spy world to live a normal life but it turns out there are more answers that Chuck has to seek. All along I thought that it was mere coincidence that Chuck became a spy but it turns being a spy runs in their blood. Chuck found a file about his mother, Elizabeth Bartowski. The contents of the file still yet to be reveal.
V
V is a remake from a science fiction TV series in 80s having the same title. Anna, the leader of the Alien visitors breed soldiers that would as part of plan to hunt the down the rebel alien faction called the fifth column. FBI agent Erica Evans learned about the soldiers and got help from an unexpected ally Lisa. Lisa is the daughter of Anna but fell in love with Erica’s son Tyler. Ryan Nichols is a visitor posing as a human and has been a helping to Erica in stopping Anna’s plan. Ryan’s fiancée Valerie gave birth to hybrid half human and half alien baby. Anna then ordered Valerie’s death after their baby was born. Anna then turns Ryan’s allegiance. We will have to wait next season where Ryan’s loyalty lies. After learning that her army was destroyed, Anna has shown signs of human emotions specifically anger. Using their technology, they turned the planet’s sky red.
Smallville
The TV series about one the most famous superhero of all time Superman. Smallville tells the story of Clark Kent’s journey to become Superman. I really loved how they reinvented the Superman story. But I have to admit that there have been moments when I wanted to give up watching this series.
I think after 9 seasons it is about time for Clark to learn how to fly. By the end of the season nine, Zod has been teleported to another world along with the Candorians. Oliver Queen Aka green arrow was abducted by an unknown enemy. And after being stab by blue kryptonite (When exposed, this kryptonite removes Clark's Powers temporarily) Clark falls from the top of a building without his powers. There are two possible ways for him to survive. First he might be saved by Martian the manhunter or by Hawkman. Second, somehow his powers of flight manifest. Guess will have to see.
