"Falling Skies" Preview

Yes, this is another post-apocalyptic show, however I think it looks rather interesting, personally speaking. Since the unfortunate cancellation of V, this looks to be a nice substitute to fill that void of an alien invasion summer drama. Granted I know that trailers can sometimes be misleading, though I think anything that takes a look at humanity the way this advertises it will is worth looking into. Plus, it's a series produced by Steven Spielberg. I definitely say it's worth taking a chance at.

It premieres June 19th on TNT, so it's just around the corner.

I'm looking forward to this. But every time I look forward to a new sci-fi show it either a)sucks or b) gets cancelled after a few episodes. Sooo... maybe I should pretend to hate this and it'll be great and last 10 seasons. :/

Heh, yeah. It's the unfortunate thing because whenever I get my hopes up for a new show it goes for either of those options, and it just sucks because there are some pretty damn awesome shows that always get sidelined and ignored while the crappier ones always get the 10+ seasons. It just makes me wish I could work in those offices so the decision-making about all of that.

(which I know is more complicated than it appears to be, but it's a nice thought to have if, say, the cool peeps in fandom came out with our own network and we made all these creative decisions about getting the rejected pilots or prematurely canceled shows back on the air -- yep, that is my fantasy)

I need to see a few episodes of this when it premieres to make a final judgment call, however I love that scifi is getting more recognized in general.
