I hope this is good, especially with The Killing and Game of Thrones done Sunday. I just worry about TNT putting out a solid non-cheesy show. Then again, it's about the only thing going to be on TV for me till Breaking Bad starts in a month, and Weeds.

I've been slowly getting more and more excited for this show, but I'm keeping my expectations low (I've been burned too many times by sci-fi shows that either suck or that I get invested in only to have them cancled).

I read this article earlier that got me pretty pumped for the show http://io9.com/5812883/why-falling-skies-breaks-the-mold-of-alien-invasion-shows

Well, in regards to cancellation, at least it's on cable, where expected ratings aren't close to as high as network TV. At least on cable you usually get at least a full season.

That is true, TNT gave Dark Blue two seasons. It's hard the get cancelled on TNT after one season.

yeah it was done pretty well, there are a bit too many stereotypes in character and situations but the writing was really good and they managed to generate some scary moments.

Yeah the scene where his son (the scout) was in the river bank and then all the "mechs" start marching toward him was a pretty awesome.

      Malcom Spence is the best player remaining, hope he’s there.

      The era that you played in, and, more importantly, who you played with actually matters. Honestly, that's why these issues will be debated forever, as it's just difficult to say that this person or that person is better when you're discussing the passage of time. As for me, after Rice, Moss and maybe Megatron and T.O., there's probably a dozen or so guys that can be argued about to the cows come home. Personally, I'm not putting Fitz, Harrison, Johnson, Evans, or especially D-Hop, Jefferson, Chase or Hill definitely in front of Smitty (and Colston ain't even in the discussion). Context and all that stuff actually matters. Things like the triple crown matter.

      Some of those guys? Yeah honestly you can.  I would 100% take Steve Smith over Larry Fitzgerald, Harrison, even Mike Evans. He is 100% a better player than those guys in his prime. If you look at the numbers Smith is historically under targeted in comparison to his contemporaries. He was only targeted 150 times or more only once in his career. Fitzgerald for example was targeted well above that 9 different seasons. Had Smith played with Peyton, Brady, Greatest Show on Turf, or even with Warner in Arizona he would broken records. His 2008 season was ridiculous accumulating 1400 yards in 13 games on less than 80 receptions. All time he also lost a season due to injury in 04, barely played WR as a rookie. Got robbed of 1k season with Clausen. Thats easily another 1800yds minimum that should have been tacked on to his #s. The only guys I’d say for certain are better than Smith are Rice, Moss, TO, Megatron, Julio Jones, Antonio Brown.
