Are any of you still being held hostage by "Falling Skies?"

2 hour season finale tonight.

It sickens me that I've allowed myself to invest so much time in this alien, apocalyptic shite storm, so that now I have no choice but to tune in each week to see how things will end.

I know last summer we had some discussions on it, but haven't noticed any this year.

Are you still watching, Cokes?

Anybody?

I DVR it and watch it when I feel like it and am bored. I am watching the finale now because I don't have shite to do tomorrow and have already watched Ray Donovan.

Same here. I have it playing as background noise when I do watch it. Wanted to give up on it completely last season, but this will be my last season.

Here!

I figured I invested 4 seasons into this show, I might as well finish it. The show has taken a straight nose dive down and I'm glad next season is it's last.

Lexi looks way better as a brunette.

On a side note, apparently the girl playing Lexi also played the girl who always hung around with Draco malfoy on the Harry Potter movies.

Watched finale

Weird as usual but just enough to keep me occupied

I'm too invested at this point. Will watch final season

I will watch the final season too but do this for me: name one character that you like on the show. Any of them that you actually like on the show.

Yeah. Each week seems worse than the last. I have literally not been the least bit excited to watch any episode this season. It's almost like exercise, I dread getting started but I have this built in mechanism to feel that it's necessary.

Without spoilers, was tonight any good? I know tomorrow at some point I'll have to force myself to watch. I'm kind of hoping I'll find the balls to call it quits and not even bother next season...... But I'm sure just enough will happen that I'll have to come back

Oh and I hate that little fig Matt so much. Popes character has gotten a very very very small tad bit more likeable. But I still despise him. Dr Glass's character has become laughably bad. I still like Maggie and Ben has kind of grown on me a little bit. I hate Hal. He's such a passive aggressive little bitch, and I'm sick of Tom Mason trying to pull off that battle hardened, thousand mile stare. Always. He has way too much belief in himself. And he's so judgmental of everyone else, like he's the only one that is passionate about winning the war or something.

I miss Tector (frick I guess spoilers) and that black dude Anthony is really the only person I buy as a battle hardened warrior. And Colonal Weaver is just kind of weird. He's basically just turned into playing Mick to Tom Masons Rocky. This show has just gotten really weird and makes me kind of hate myself for watching it And the weird Lexi and lead Ashpheni character (her alien dad) fricking communicating through another dimension via burning coals in their hands..... Just fricking wow. I can't even describe or put into words how horrible and generic it feels to witness that shite.

I didn't read this before I made my last post, but I had this very question in my head as I was typing. It's very very hard to like anyone on this show.

Good? I guess

About as good as the plot can be

Ending leading to next season will have you saying "wtf, here we go again"

Good? I don't think I've used that word to describe any episode this season including the finale. At this point, they could blow up Earth and I wouldn't have a problem with it. Like I said earlier, I'm invested so I might as well finish it out.

My god, this finale was weird as hell. There's was so much shite going down that I didn't have the slightest clue about.

Who was that alien Tom was talking to at the end? I really hope Lexi survived somehow. I'd like her expanded as a character.

Yeah, I'll be tuning in next summer for the final season. I've already invested 4 years into this show. What's another? frick it. Like I said earlier, I could swear that Spielberg has no involvement in this show whatsoever. It's another weird thing about this show.

I had been interested up until this season. This season was so stupid and atrociously acted. I mean ATROCIOUS acting. And the characters are all horrible, this season they actually made you root for the aliens. I honestly don't even care how it ends anymore.

I watched the first half of this season and have been away a lot with work. Does this second half pick up? The Lexi commune was some boring shite in the first half.

They will of course be the even worse enemy the Espheni had mentioned.

This is how I felt about Dexter the last season. It was horrible but I had invested too much time in the series.
