Falling Skies

Falling Skies is an American science fiction dramatic television series created by Robert Rodat. The series premiered on Sunday, June 19, 2011 on TNT and is a production of DreamWorks Television. The series was renewed on July 7, 2011, for a second season of 10 episodes due to air in summer 2012.

Falling Skies tells the story of the aftermath of an alien invasion that not only neutralizes the world's power grid and technology, but also destroys the combined militaries of all the world's countries in a short amount of time. It is alluded that over 90% of the human population is killed within a few days. The story picks up six months after the invasion, and follows a group of survivors who must band together in order to fight back. The group, known as the Second Massachusetts (an allusion to a Boston militia in the American Revolutionary War), is now led by the retired, Captain Weaver, and Boston University history professor Tom Mason who, while in search of his son Ben, must put his extensive knowledge of military history into practice as one of the leaders of the resistance movement

RG's views:

This show will keep you coming back for more. It's hard to pull yourself away. Even after they pulled their time-jump, a stunt that I hate, I still ended up feeling satisfied with how they explained all that had happened and how they moved forward. Really looking forward to the next season.
