I keep waiting for the plot to advance on this show, and it just doesn't. Even though this is supposed to be a military unit resisting an alien invasion, most of the series seems to revolve around one character wringing their hands over the fate of another character, or characters sharing their feelings about each other. Its almost as if it had been written by Dr. Phil.
I've given it a 7 largely because it doesn't seem fair to give a lower rating to something I've continued to watch. Theoretically if I thought it was any worse I should be moving on to something better like, "How I Met Your Mother". The trouble is, I LOVE the premise, but find the writing mediocre at the best of times. You'd think a world dominated by aliens would be dangerous enough, but no, the writers have to think of ways to put characters in jeopardy that require them to be stupid, foolhardy, and just plain bloody-minded. I'm still tuning in hoping against hope that win or lose against the aliens, the human race will at least pay attention to the invasion more than who is dating whom.
