Not half as much as I'd want, but I for sure have a feeling that there will be many symbols in this one. They could've picked a myriad of people for that role sure 'nuff, but they went Native, and in St Louis? I might not have looked twice if it were say...The Dakotas, but it sure seemed like a man out of place.

Also, I'm not sure a lot of writers put the thought in there for them to be symbols half as much as they just rip off a storyline from reality and slightly alter it because it's cheap and easy, but I can't blame them too much...

looks like I'm done with Defiance...disapointed on many levels...last night's episode seemed like I was watching a rerun of 5 other movies..old movies.... "run..run for the stronghold Thunderheart....must smoke the peace pipe in order to open your mind"

never mind the gratuitous sex scene that was just gross.... think I'll just go watch Mr. Maggoo

I do like Irisa as a character, especially because she reminds me of River, in a sense. From next week's promo it looks like she'll be having some dreams foretelling something or some-such. It was very brief.

She should've threatened to smear soup on someone and then the analogy would be complete Next week maybe she should play with some marbles and whisper "Jossss" heh.

Glad you brought that up...I actually had hopes I could watch some episodes of this show with mah kid, but even I was blushing (and a little wretching)at that and I don't blush... I can't watch just about ANYTHING as a family anymore without being bored stiff or maternally horrified...

But then, I guess that's an old fashioned notion anymore, spending time as a family

Irisa is still my favorite character, but the stories have been very weak. I don't care at all about the romance between the Castithan boy and the human girl, Graham Greene has been a big disappointment, and sad to say but Julie Benz has been relatively useless too.

There is so much they could be doing to get us to not only understand the various alien species, but also to care about them or the humans. So far that has not happened. They plopped us down in the middle of "Alien Melting Pot" post-apocalyptic America, with no knowledge of how it all happened. Were they expecting all of us to be playing the game and learning the information from other sources?

I WANT THEM TO TELL ME ABOUT IT IN THE SHOW ITSELF!!!!

Sorry for shouting.

I'm not giving up on the show just yet, but there's a boat load of history, recent history of the planet, the invasion, etc... that's being glossed over, or saved, for later. Problem is, I feel too many viewers will start tuning out before the important back story stuff comes to the surface. And it sure as hell better, because the stuff they're laying out so far has been weak. Very weak.
