ok, so I dropped the Killing (except for Tahmoh's ep) a few eps ago because to me the showrunners already had zero clue about how to plot a season-arc and it appears I was vindicated. They really ARE that incompetent. sad. Such a waste of some excellent actors and premise.
Anyway, in far more happy news-- I AM IN LOVE WITH FALLING SKIES. It is the fabulous love child of War of the Worlds, Jericho, Jeremiah, and every apocafic EVER.
There are battles and shit blows up, and people doing desperate things to survive, and creepy aliens with creepy agendas --
and Noah Wyle being adorb, and Moon Bloodgood being her pretty and coolly competent badass self, and Sarah Carter (I cast her as my villainness in Distorted Reflectinos, and SHE DOES ME PROUD)... SHE SHOOTS THEM. \o/
But BEST OF ALL? Colin Cunningham being awesomely crazed. (I have the feeling he wore exactly that outfit to his audition. That's a case of knowing a little too much about him from cons, maybe) But omg, HEARTS AND SPARKLES. (not that his character isn't on the batshit crazy awful side, BUT still, he's just so swaggering and fun.) His lair, with a throne? Thing of beauty (cuz sure, if you're at the end of the world why the hell not?).
So anyway, the whole pilot ep was very well done, very little fat -- it moved, it introduced, it let the characters have some breathing room, and it had some decent FX.
POST APOCALYPSE tv is back - HOORAY! :D
(and also, jeez, I haven't updated in a week? yikes)
