Falling Skies Season 2
DVD Wholesale Quick Overview:
This is part of the insert jews into american history movement in hollywood. It’s also a reasonably entertaining sci fi show. Jews in America didn’t have as much of a role until probably the latter part of the 20th century. You have isolated figures before then but nobody in power, though I’m not an expert in American History I believe this is so. In this series the lead is a jew who teaches american history, and the main unit is the 2nd Mass, a reference to a colonial army unit from the Revolutionary War. Mason emerges as the hero and carrier of the noblest of the Founders’ values, and at the end of the series he stands in the Lincoln Memorial as the president elect, having refused the post three times, like Washington. He addresses the young nation, rhetorically cloaking himself in all the trappings of the founding fathers. You also have movies like Silverado and so forth where the west was won by … jews. Well when you have jews controlling all of the media, what do you expect? Is there any harm in this? It is what it is. But for what it’s worth, the germans have also reimagined the american western in their own image.
I liked the writing and the commitment to action, it’s a good feel. If some of the larger plot points were just not believable, the detail in the smaller scenes made up for it. And they were always about character as much as action which was a plus.

I put this program on more because my husband likes it than because it’s anything I am especially excited about. I’m sure that you all have similar issues within your own families. Different people like different things and finding shows that everyone can enjoy together is an exercise in compromise. In my house, there are three people. I prefer older shows without all the sex and violence. I also like good life lessons in my shows. My husband is pretty picky, but tends to be partial to all of the newest, action packed stuff that is around. My son is a Star Trek junkie and also a big fan of Top Gear.
With all of that said… Falling Skies is something I watch with my husband. He stays interested because the story line is fast moving and there is a heavy military feel to the entire thing. I don’t mind this one because most of the violence is aliens being blown up – more explosion than gore. And there’s no nudity or sex to be concerned with. I also think the cast is great.
SPOILER WARNING – STOP READING HERE IF YOU DO NOT WANT SPOILERS!!!
Season 2 specifically gets into finding another community of people and the attempts to rebuild the government. There is a lot of how things appear vs how they really are stuff going on in this season. So, if you like the dystopian future that always has some guy in charge of things and the people aren’t happy about it… stick with this show through Season 2.

Season one and season two had very strong plots based on time tested moral and ethical dilemas people have always faced. I was enameled by seasons one and two. Such sacrifice and valor depicted by such out gunned men and wonen. I salute the Tom and Dan of season one and two, and even thrvfirst few season three episodes. However, regretably, season three to a nose dive in story depth and moral aptitude. Its as if some evil entity or force usurped the show and it’s characters, rather than leaving the show in its original format, and pulled a bait and switch in order to insidously implant it’s nefarious ideals into an unsuspecting and now, because the seasons one and, open viewers. I got through season three and stopped. I’ll never see season four. Was a great show. What happened? In so disappointed.
