But the show lost me when the portal opened up and the plane was consumed. I thought the show was going to be more political conspiracy and not the whole aliens and non-terrestrial beings deal. | ||

Also, do they not realize that the two planets would crash into each other because they were so close? And even if they didn't crash, the orbital pattern of the earth would be completely messed up and the planet would either be flung into the sun or outside the solar system. These aliens sure are smart. I hope they do reveal what the secret was because otherwise it'd be like another SGU in which they set up a cool overarching mystery and never reveal what it was. With the right speed they could orbit eacother. And I assume the sun as well if they. Atleast you can assume they atleast acounted for that. What however would be totaly messed up is the tidal waves caused by that giant mass orbiting earth. I dont see why they had to come up with all this stuff in the final episode.... We do finaly know what the event might be, too bad it hardly had anything to do with this season. | ||

the shows i get attached to always end up getting axed. hopefully if the show doesn't get picked up some writer or blogger will find out what would have happened and let us know, like this guy did with Defying Gravity: http://cliqueclack.com/tv/2009/10/29/how-defying-gravity-would-have-progressed-straight-from-the-creator/ | ||

Way more action. No more flashbacks. And things actually happen. Though some characters were changed a lot and got a lot angrier/ dangerous. | ||

The aliens's planet is going to be destroyed. They want to teleport their population to earth, but need to kill the human population first. They work together with the vice-president ((because they promised to keep the American people alive) to try and kill the president since he's trying to stop the aliens. Sean and the hot blonde (who's half alien btw) stop the biological attack, although she got infected with a lethal virus. The show ends with the aliens just teleporting the entire planet into the solar system. | ||

a lots of people blame on the writing but i dont think its the reason why the show sucks. There were clearly too much hype from the beginning as a replacement for Lost. After that critic flame the pilot all the way which affect the decision of the show run. Im quite sure the writers didnt write the story in order to aim it in 1 season. A lots of corner has been cut which ruined the show. Acting was 7/10 overall but its clearly not terrible to stop people from watching. The one we should blame is NBC for their decision to stop the show! I hope CBS gona pick it up in the future, re write as well as remade everything. The story has too much potential to be ignored. | ||

And if you liked LOST, i feel sorry for you. Lost was an hour long commercial on why to watch the next episode, it was horrible | ||

They live season to season and are paid on ratings (unluck HBO and SHOW etc.) who get paid before the show is created. All this show will be is another cliff hanger at 45 minutes in, every single episode. And if you liked LOST, i feel sorry for you. Lost was an hour long commercial on why to watch the next episode, it was horrible I agree with everything you said about LOST,simply hated the show even thought i've seen a couple of seasons. Sean's girlfriend and the crazy assassin chick were extremely hot! The show was decent i thought it had a really slow start, but picked up smoothly and then had tons of action. I really did enjoy the plot of the story as i basically love anything with aliens interacting with earth. As everyone is saying the writing was really bad. With that being said i thought the acting was pretty good. I did like most of actors, especially the guy that played the master planner and new leader of the aliens. But because the writing was so awful it made you see an actor playing a role, as apposed to looking at the actor simply of the character he is playing. The ending basically sucked, and yes this doesn't matter because no one is go wanna put alot of money into a show with horrible ratings. | ||
