I was getting a tad bored with this last season, yet strangely I find myself looking forward to it. Here's hoping it doesn't go great guns for two episodes, snooze until the season ender and then throw everything and the dog at the cliffhanger.

Not a bad start

A few good Pope-isms and he was always going to be the one that had doubts about PH's escape.

I'd put money on Motorcycle Girl turining up again later in the season

PH's sons were annoying in the first season as well

Decent restart to the season, Im also sure "girl on motorbike" will be back as will that skitter with the red eye.

It did remind me that showbiz can be so fickle with actors, I spotted Ryan Robbins, aka Henry from Sanctuary as a very backround character who didnt even have a line!

From a main character in a series to a bit of background ouch.

One of Pope's biker buddies wasn't he??

But who's to say his character won't become more prominent as the season continues??

Not a bad opener. Loving the humanoid aliens.

Tom's sons are annoying already, though.

They're going to have to do a massive time jump at some point because the youngest kid already looks way older that the 8? years he's supposed to be.

At this rate he'll be six foot at 10. Alas, always the bane of kid filled shows.

But yeah, annoying.

He always brought a lot of humour to Sanctuary which could get awfully po-faced at times

I watched the first series, despite misgivings about the stupidity of the characters. I had been led to believe the show had improved, but it's still just as stupid. About 5 minutes in, we had a character disobeying a cease-fire order (there-by wasting ammo and possibly getting someone killed if they had wandered into the kill-zone prematurely); then disobeying a retreat order, then some friendly fire (almost inevitable result of lack of gun discipline), and then they bring the hero back into their base without checking him for homing beacons or similar. So far as they know, he spent 3 months in the alien craft, subject to who knows what advanced technology. Perhaps they put a spine-thing on him, conditioned him, then took it off.

The sad thing is, there's not much else on now, so I may end up watching it anyway.

Like I said the only person that was remotely suspicious of PH's escape was ex-gang leader Pope. Unfortunately they'll probably ignore his concerns cos of his previous history with PH

Which son do you want to die first?

Actually I'd spare them all if God-Girl took a bullet early on.

I wouldn't mind seeing Bible-Basher Girl being killed by a priest who had lost his faith in the aftermath of the invasion

As for PH's sons I'd want the youngest one to go first
