Falling Skies – The Price of Greatness
After the season’s low point last week, it seemed the show had nowhere else to go but up, which it did, but the improvement was barely noticeable. “The Price of Greatness” was far from being as engrossing as its title. The episode oversimplified the making of a “new” nation to allow its main character to shine, painted such a sharp contrast between the rest of the world and the 2nd Massachusetts as to irritate anyone with a shred of skepticism, and was so predictable it undercut its own pizzazz.
