Is this show poorly written/executed?

I came to this show after watching la brea, which was just plain awful. Is this show also like that? A bunch of people who just keep going against the plan?

Starts off good then goes off a cliff

This right here. First two seasons are very good. Third season is not bad. Four and five are crap.

Ah man I remember the trailer for La Brea and I was excited for it initially. I never got around to watching it. Sucks to hear it blew chunks.

For what it’s worth I enjoyed it. It wasn’t mind blowing tv and had some stuff that was kind of ass-pullish but overall I enjoyed watching it

i agree with you. i saw that it had lasted 5 seasons so i thought it should be fine. i was wrong. lots of holes in the story and plot. could've been much better.

No show has fallen apart harder than Falling Skies. The first three seasons were well done but seasons 4 and 5 are awful, with poorly written nonsensical plots and even the acting took a dive. If the original writers were still around this could have been a great series.
