Falling Skies is one of the most average and annoying shows on television. It is one of those shows you watch and keep hoping that it will turn into something else but it just continually lets you down. It had a lot of promise but quickly devolved into plot continuity issues, family drama and dumb shit like characters keeping secrets for the sake of the plot.
Jeremiah on the other hand is one of those shows you feel like you should hate but it somehow works in spite of itself.
