When do falling skies start

Maybe after the finale wraps, many of you will feel like something is missing … or at least like the show could have done with another batch of episodes to sort of stretch out some of the final episodes, even if it was only a small handful of episodes.

So do we think the show needed another batch of episodes in order to tell the story? However, at the same exact time there is something to be said for having a show leave you wanting more, and we do feel very much like it is better to end it early than end when a show starts to get tired.

While there have been frustrating moments at times during season 5, we do think that this has been the most intense batch of episodes in a long time. Vote in the poll!

It was a good clean family show! But the last season had more cussing AND cursing than the first four seasons put together. What a shame. Now when I watch the first four seasons, I will not watch the last season except maybe the last 20 minutes of the last episode.

I never missed an episode and bought the series. I think it should have had a season six. Where are most of the characters now.

At least they were working then. To bad it was canceled. Home News Cancelled or Renewed? Next Post ». Inline Feedbacks.
