"Years and hundreds of episodes later, I'd like to say that Fallen Skies is a great series. With a million illogicalities, stupidities, nonsense, nonsense, and even outright screw-ups in the plot. It's still great," - Oliverell22.
"How I liked the series, one of my favorites was, season 5 constant action at the beginning of the season, Dramatic denouement how many were. After some episodes, barely held back a tear. And here we watched the penultimate episode, everything hints at action and struggle in the last. I was looking forward to watching it for a week. And what do we see? I don't know what to call it. It's a load of crap! In general, I do not believe that the creators of the series could treat the audience like this, " warjkeeeeeee.

"Yes, the show may not be complete in terms of plot, BUT! The semantic load in it is immense. The series is very life-like, about people fighting for themselves and their family. Despite the fact that the series was closed, I got a lot of pleasure from it. And the soundtrack in the end credits in every episode is delightful, I never rewound that song," ARThemij.
"The series had a great ending considering the finale was wrapped up in a hurry. There wasn't any 'he had a gun pointed at him and the end of the season' stuff. All the action is put to a skillful pause. Further the viewer can speculate what could happen next with such a seed," - lopar.
"Eh, still, for all the shoals was in this series some chamber coziness and it was interesting to watch. In general, thank you, Colony, it's just a pity that it turned out without a normal ending" - SevaWolf.

"A unique series of its kind, unfortunately overshadowed by "The X-Files" and therefore overlooked by many. Its main advantage today is its ability to awaken a special nostalgia. After all, there are a lot of different myths and stories very popular in those days. Here and flying saucers, and the abduction of people by aliens, and operations on cows, and a secret government organization, and even the legend that in the songs of the Beatles were encrypted hidden messages. Also many historical figures and real historical events are very subtly woven into the plot," - Seraphimer.
"Interesting enough idea, liked the story lines and moves too, nice cast. The 60s era with numerous conspiracies, government secret organizations, conspiracy theories. It's a shame that the series was unfinished, but it was a pleasant experience" - AndrewJudas.

It's good that Sai-Fai gave this project, " - armitron.

Странно, что "Визитеров" не упомянули, когда он вышел, обещали, что чуть ли не новый Лост будет
Тем, кто аниме не боится и любит хорроры, еще рекомендую "Паразит: учение о жизни". Тоже про вторжение, с тропом "они среди нас", кучей мяса и парой интересных поворотов
Очень заинтересовали Рухнувшие небеса, спасибо😉
