I concur

I think I am on S1E5 now and I gotta say this show is starting to really pick-up.
I am really into it now. After the season premier I wasn't sold but now I am.

The characters and the storyline really does pick up, by midway season 1 I was hooked as well

Powers · 07-02-2012, 11:34 AM

Any thoughts on the last two episodes, gentlemen?

No spoilers as to the latest one but I liked how they had a mural of Robert E. Lee on the side of a building next to their camp with his quote: "It is well that war is so terrible, lest we should grow to fond of it."

I assume they made it to Virginia 'cause I don't think you'd see that in Massachusetts

I have not watched the latest episode but the season is off to a good start. They have set up several different tension points that should keep the season interesting.

I am wondering about the gal with the bi-plane.

I was eagerly and excitedly waiting for season 2 to come out, until I fired up S02E01 and realized I was completely lost, I had NO idea what was going on. Turns out for whatever reason I never finished season 1, yet somehow had filed the show away as "awesome" and "can't wait for next year" in my head.

... back to playing catch up!

theonlybear4CORT · 07-08-2012, 11:02 PM

I only was able to catch the second half, What did I miss?

Mr B · 07-09-2012, 11:46 AM

Love the way this show is coming together. No spoilers but.... is there an alliance in the near future?

ucla695 · 07-09-2012, 03:43 PM

I watched last season and am watching this season too. I echo the thought that it's Walking Dead with aliens. Not bad for a summer show.

CigarNut · 07-20-2012, 08:44 AM

Based on the previews for the next episode I am starting to get concerned that they are introducing too many different twists that don't help resolve the main plot line...

hammondc · 07-20-2012, 09:02 AM

FINALLY got the DVDs from Netflx. 3 episodes in season 1 to go.

kelmac07 · 07-20-2012, 11:33 AM

Loving how this season is panning out...

kelmac07 · 08-06-2012, 06:52 AM

Damn fine episode last night...first one without mechs and skitters in a while. So...Charleston does exist. Was very cool the way they played that out.

Season finale next week.

The storyline is really starting to come together. Great episode last night. Can't wait for the next one!

Agreed. A good show is one that does not rely upon thrill and action, but the strength and dynamics of the character arcs.

And we've got two more episodes left in the season

Mr B · 08-06-2012, 04:52 PM

I saw Pope in a episode of "Perception" last week, all clean shaven and short hair. Totally tripped me out. I kinda thought I reccognized him...then I heard his voice and gave the ol Ah Ha!!

kelmac07 · 08-20-2012, 06:49 AM

Great season finale last night.

CRIMPS · 08-20-2012, 10:14 AM

Good finale. Dai needs to rise from the dead, though. I liked his character.
