Carol Barbee joins TNT's 'Falling Skies'

A few days ago we reported that the hit TNT sci-fi series 'Falling Skies' was getting a new showrunner in David Eick. Well Eick isn't wasting any time in putting a new team together: today it was announced that Carol Barbee has joined the 'Falling Skies' team as a consulting producer.

Barbee and Eick worked together on the recently cancelled Kiefer Sutherland series 'Touch.' Barbee is Barbeean experienced showrunner in her own right, previously working as a producer on 'Hawaii Five-0,' 'Three Rivers,' 'Swingtown' and 'Judging Amy.' Just as Eick brings a lot of science-fiction credibility to 'Falling Skies' having worked on 'Battlestar Galactica' and 'Caprica,' Barbee previously worked on 'Jericho,' which like 'Falling Skies' is set in a post-apocalyptic world.

Barbee also has several writing credits on each of the series she has produced, mentioned above. Eick made clear his intentions to begin writing a fourth season of the TNT drama as soon as possible; given the immense set construction and post-production effects necessary for such a sprawling epic science fiction series, 'Falling Skies' writers often work well in advance of shooting schedules in order to give various people the time needed to bring their scripts to life on screen.

On June 9, 'Falling Skies' returns with a third season on TNT. Iit seems all but certain that 'Falling Skies' will be renewed for a fourth season after this one. The show is TNT?s #1 scripted series in the younger demographics.

Wow! What a season a premiere. The preview for the next episode looks good. I was impressed by the quality of the CGI. It's amazing for a TV show. I was also surprised by the actor that played Cochise (Doug Jones). His name isn't well known but he's been in a lot of movies.

He played Abe Sapien in the Hellboy movies:

I knew I recognized the agoraphobic scientist Dr. Cadar from somewhere by his voice. Took me sometime, but then finally figured it out.

It's Wilson from House! Glad to see him back on tv! :)

OH MY GOD! THANK YOU for this, it's been drilling my head for the last few weeks! Loved House!

 

 

This is one cracking show. One of the best on TV currently!

I agree it was definitely filler and they shouldn't have the luxury of that in a 10 episode season. I liked the idea of them probing his thoughts and giving him that alternate reality to find out the target for the attack. I also like the building relationship between the Colonel and Pope. Pope has bad the bad boy but I keep hoping he's going to have a real hero moment.

    • Payday TWO!! Is 13 years old man I feel old - I remember trying it out and if I did not know I would say 5-6 years ago or something
    • Payday 2 engine upgrade adds 64-bit and DX11 support, drastically shrinks install size by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Payday 2, the most popular entry in the heisting game franchise, is getting a surprising update after all these years. This is slated to be a complete engine upgrade that will enhance almost every aspect of the 13-year-old title, targeting performance, loading times, file size, rendering backend, and more. Developer Sidetrack Games is planning a beta to test out the new version ahead of the full public launch. The development team today revealed that the long-awaited upgrade to the 64-bit architecture is happening with this Diesel 3.0 engine update. By letting the game use more ram than 4GB, it is said to improve stability and compatibility on most hardware. It should also help modders in the long term with implementing larger changes too. "While many of the changes are made on the backend and not everything will be visible to you guys because it is a massive rewrite of the entire codebase, there will be a lot of things that you can look forward to," Sidetrack explained. Payday 2 will also hop over from DirectX 9 to 11. Instead of visual improvements, this is slated to reduce the amount of VRAM used by the title, letting more lower-end hardware access the title and run it better. Since these changes would require a complete redownload of the game anyway, Sidetrack says it has revamped "the game's packaging and bundling system." This should reduce the installation size from 86GB to 32GB. "So, now it's time to finally move the game to your SSDs," added the studio. The Payday 2 Diesel Engine 3.0 update is entering open beta on June 30 for Steam users. No console release plans were announced today. Sidetrack Games says it has been working on this complete rewrite of the codebase for the last nine months. While these changes should break most mods, the studio encouraged modders to use the beta period to repair their creations with support from the development team.
