Falling Skies

Dear World,

Now what can I say about the most amazing sci-fiction story of this decade yet, that I have only just recently been absorbed into.

As an aspiring writer I am ashamed that I didn't think of this story plot. This is due to the fact, that this happens to be one of my most popular conversation with friends. 'What would happen if aliens did visit'. It can sometimes go on for hours, and when it does, we all end up talking about; 'what happens when' aliens attack Earth, but none of us ever talk about the after effects of an alien invasion, or even 'what if' aliens did succeed in destroying our defences.

What would be their plans? What would be our plans for survival? How would we fight them? The questions are endless, and we have no point of reference for any plots along these lines and this is what a real story needs, no point of reference, making everything new and exciting for a reader or viewer in this case. And it has done!

None of us truly know anything about what ifs or how would they but Steven Spielberg and Robert Rodat, have explored their theories upon this very subject. And their theories have rocked the world of Sci-fiction, with an absolute astounding program. The brilliant acting within the story immediately draws your attention to the screen. The aliens that seem more of a mystery than sinister invaders from another planet are highly rated in my books for inventiveness and design. Plus 'Skitters' what a name.

This is a must see series and with the second season only days away from starting in the US, if you haven't yet watched it then its time to catch up with season one.
Now I know most peoples attention on sci-fiction, in the last couple of years have dwindled to nothing due to series by Fox having one season and then vanishing. Or crappy reused plots but Rodat and Spielberg, they have not only come up with a new idea but they have made it worth while watching, which in the sea of shit (Which alone is almost enough for me, to what to sell my TV and stop paying a bloody Television license.) that is broadcast to my television each hour, of each day, is warmly welcome.

Final Thoughts -  Watch this show, I am not telling you anymore about it you just need to find a channel or *Coughs* Website with it on and bloody hell absorb the only show in this decade that is a must to watch.

Rating -  9.5/10

Peace out! Craig Cremu Cragus Virgo
