I wrote about 'Falling Skies' on the original "Daily Dose of Awesome" blog after the pilot aired. As the show recently came to its conclusion last night, it seemed fitting that I do the "transfer" post now.
A lot of the things that I liked about the pilot remained true for a majority of the series. It was well written and to say that the special effects were above average would be an understatement.
Some had problems with the pacing and felt that it dragged at points, but I thought that the character development worked well. If anything, it helped add weight to the action sequences and made them feel more impressive.
As for the finale, it was a little anti-climactic. I don't think it will get the backlash that "Lost" got, but it was very average. Everything gets wrapped up, but it lacked the 'umph' that the rest of the series had.
Nevertheless, it was a fun ride. For Sci-Fi fans, it's definitely a show worth checking out.
