Falling Skies is a great new TV series that is focused around an alien attack. After the attack, the world is left in pieces and even 6 months later, signs of recovery are virtually non-existent. Each day the citizen soldiers aim to keep the peace, but also to start with their game plan of fighting back against the alien force that is currently occupying major towns and cities throughout the world. Of course, the efforts of these soldiers are fruitless for now. Although there is plenty of man power in engage against the alien occupants, the citizens have trouble actually fighting back. This is because after the attack, the majority of the man power is focused on finding not only food, but weapons as well, which means there is a lack of man power when it comes to actually engaging an attack. The great thing about Falling Skies is that there is a range of different sub plots going on throughout the series. Viewers are kept on their toes at all time, mainly due to the fact that there are fire fights happening on a regular basis. The military are aiming to protect civilians and work their way through the alien occupants, but as the plot develops, tensions arises between the military and civilians as the overall case worsens. The characters are fairly typical, something that should be expected in a show of this kind. Falling Skies incorporates a hardcore commander, who aims to please but everyone knows its his way or the high way. Alongside this, there is the usual father that has a lost son and has determination and motivation to find him, although his efforts have yielded little in terms of results. Of course, there is always the girl who can use a gun and wants to help out, alongside the doctor who is looking to push the opinions of the civilians. It is obvious that this is a series that has consistent development, which is good and a change compared to the many other series that just exist for the sake of existence. The plot is good, the actors play their parts well and overall it looks like a good set-up for a great TV series in the long term. Of course, this is really one for sci-fi fans and those that are not really that way inclined are not necessarily going to find this particularly exciting.
