Falling Skies: Bloodbath For The Second Mass.
So TNT has renewed “Falling Skies” for one more final season. I’m not sad about that, as this show is just awful now! I don’t know why I am watching it still, I guess because I want to actually get some answers. I usually put it off till a slow night in the week, but “Witches” wasn’t on last night, so I watched it.
The show spent the last two episodes having Lexi go into, and come out of a cocoon. Apparently the only thing physically that changed was her eyes, and I only know that as Ben said “look at her eyes.” They looked normal to me? I thought she was going to come out some half-human half-Eshvetti, but no. She did come out with these amazing powers, and promptly freed Lourdes from her suffering by killing her. First good thing to happen all season! She was done with the humans as they couldn’t learn peace, so she was going to be with the Eshvetti. This kid is straight up insane. How do those aliens understand peace? So frustrating! She went to be with her Eshvetti father, who donated his DNA to help make Lexi. Ben followed her and she some how took control of his spikes to get him to go into a ship with herm.
Meanwhile the overlord that Tom burned up earlier in the season as “The Ghost” is still alive and out for blood. He launched an all out war on Tom and the Second Mass. Pretty much half to most of the ground troops got wiped out. The rest sought shelter in an old fallout shelter and tried to convince the overlord that he blew them all up. The crazy scientist got killed in the battle, Maggie is lost somewhere, and Tom went gorilla to kill the Overlord himself and is buried under rubble. From the previews we know Tom is taken hostage and tortured, while Maggie is paralyzed. I’m guessing the only thing that will help Maggie is the Eshvetti spike technology?
The only thing I’m enjoying on this show is Pope and his new girlfriend, played by Mira Sorvino. They are fun to watch! I wouldn’t cry one tear if Lexi died, and again what I really want is answers!
I have come to the conclusion that they are not going to give any answers. I don;t think that the writers even know what they want to do anymore.
Even if they were to get the all the aliens and half aliens off the Earth, I don’t think that the world would ever recover anyways.
So I think that eventually this is either going to turn into some stupid writers fantasy…. or something equally inane. I am like you only watching in hopes of some sort of answer or resolution.
