I am sort of enjoying the show and how the story is coming along, but I was just wondering if the show will keep getting better as we progress. The whole Tom Mason keeps coming back every time he's challenged with something, I feel the abrupt end of Season 1 with him going into the spaceship and then walking back alive with some parasite in his head, which got removed, and then he sort of gets blown to bits on the bridge during the second or third episode and comes back alive, I feel the story is moving a bit fast. I mean, the Season 1 I watched was incredible because it was building the whole scene up, but Season 2 just began out of nowhere... like they are just pushing through... so yeah. Will it get better as we progress, or is the show going downhill?

Hola chicos tengo una duda ,porque entiendo que Alexis glass manson es una híbrida humana-espheni pero en qué momento la modificaron . Por lo que dice la serie Anne se da cuenta que está embarazada en la temporada 2 días antes de atacar el arma espheni contra las naves volm y que matarán a el overlord espheni ,eso daría como conclusión que solo la podrían haber secuestrado para modificarla semanas antes o meses después ,porque la primera vez que Tom y ella tiene intimidad es en el hospital y para cuando llegan a charleston como mucho tendría 2 o 3 semanas de embarazo .

Y mi duda proviene de que en todo esos momentos ella estuvo con Tom o en un refugio , durante sus primeras semanas de gestación estuvo en el hospital y luego en el autobús con Tom ,luego en charleston,de ahí se fué a combatir con Tom y siempre estuvo a su lado y después de eso terminó viviendo en charleston durante el resto del embarazo . Pero cuando muestran que la modifican lo hacen en la temporada 4 y muestran que lo hace el overlord espheni junto a Karen y para después de charleston ya estaba muerto ,por lo que no entiendo en qué momento .

Alguien me explica eso ? Porque no entiendo cuando pasó

He's on a crusade against Tom because he thinks Tom is responsible for so much death, but then when he gets his own group he abandons and shoots innocent people, making him no better than Tom.

People say they root for Pope and against Tom because Tom is hypocritical and egotistical, but Pope is the exact same.

I remembered I had watched it when it came out but turns out I only watched the first season it seems.

For me the 4th season was terrible but the 5th season was fine. I think I have two major complains (and a lot of smaller ones lol).

First one is that Tom Mason is an asshole. He has god complex but masks it well. Pope was the only one who saw right through it. >!The episode where Sara dies they had one hour to get to the Espheni factory. About 10km drive to Sara's location and to the Espheni factory. They could have easily managed to go first to Sara and then to the factory. It's not like there are speed limits anymore. Mason just decided that they will not be saving Sara.!<

Second one is that the final battle and the finale in general was way too short. >!This whole world war and then it takes one man (who is like a god at this point) to wipe out an entire species...!<I was shocked when I started the final episode and saw it was only 46mins as I thought there were a lot of things that should be shown. The finale was rushed and >!it lacked a proper battle.!<

One smaller thing I'd like to mention as well is the whole "history professor can be usefull in war due to his knowledge" thing being kind of abandoned after the pilot. Yeah it was cheesy in the pilot but it would have been cool for Mason to throw a few facts here and there more often. "Let's try this tactic that worked for the Germans in the battle of this and that in WWI", "We can build this weapon that was used in the 100 year war by the French" etc etc

All in all a solid 3,5/5 for me. 4/5 or 5/5 on seasons 1-3, 2/5 for season 4 and 3/5 for season 5.
