Should I be excited about Falling Skies? (New sci-fi series on TNT)

Title says it all.

Is anybody familiar with the writters on this show? Producers? Are they any good? Thoughts?

Fingers are crossed for something good but not so good that it gets immediately cancelled.

3

Every promo has the name Steven Spielberg on it. That’s all I know.

My guess is that it will have to be VERY heavy on CGI because of budget constraints, which is generally not a good thing.

The info on Wikipedia is pretty thin. It would be great if there was another really good SciFi series to watch, like BSG, but their track record isn’t very good.

Here’s an early spoiler-free preview from io9.

Basically, it gets really good, but it starts out pretty bad.

6

The best news is that it’s not a Sci Fi Channel program.

:smack: I missed the “TNT” reference in the OP. I was assuming it was the SciFi channel.

Sounds like it’s doomed to me.
