They have to be allies because they've already revealed that the eldest son is going to turn evil. You can't have 2 evil plots running simultaneously in a campy show like this.
Also, the plots aren't all that bad, but the goddamn campy writing is TERRIBLE. Okay, so you're going underground, trying to SURPRISE the enemy. What do you do? Talk all cutesy-like about romance and shit. Come the fuck on. D:
I mad at the writers.
^this 100% I really fucking hate teeniebop drama mixed in with life and death shit. If an alien is torturing me i'm not giving a shit if evil alien bitch is kissing all over someone. I've seen a few people suggest checking out Vampire Diaries on this forum, and I couldn't get around the teenie bopper bs "My brother could possibly die, but I am confused about my feelings between Stefan or Damon!".
Vampire Diaries is actually extremely good. It is the median between Twilight and True Blood. If you hate them both though, don't bother obviously. There are a shit ton of hot chicks in it though, including Nina Dobrev which is in my top 3 for the last year.
The ending was good IMO. I think ally as well. Also, I 100% agree the evil blond is an absolute terrible actress.
Yeah, not a fan of Twilight in the least. I like Trueblood, but I think solely for the reason it's over the top ridiculous. I think Vampire Diaries takes itself way too seriously to have the retarded dialogue they have when faced with threats: The vampire that snaps your brother's neck, eats half of the entire town and you're still contemplating whether to ask him or his brother to the 70s decade dance; all the while someone wants to sacrifice you and drain you of all of your blood.
I just hope they don't go that route with this show. It's ridonkulous.
If they could cut down on the all the forced romance plots and crappy dialogue I firmly believe the show would improve exponentially. As it stands I still watch the show every Sunday so they must be doing something right. Course that could also be because of Maggie. But whatever!
i know hal has a bug in his brain but how do we know he's an overlord in disguise?
Not sure why it's understood he's an overlord, can't he simply be an inside-agent?
My reason for thinking that way is as follows.
Spoiler: show
Every show would be better for this. Every. Single. Show.
Most hollywood movies as well. How many movies have we seen that have come out and we're all like "wait, there's a love triangle in this movie WHY?!!" 90% of the time it makes no sense unless the focus of the movie is the romance itself. More often than not, however, the shit is just so they can pander to whatever audience has to see whatever A or B list actor make out with another one and grasp at some feel-good "awww" movie.
Fucking explosions going all over the place and instead of trying to save someone, some boneheaded protagonist is thinking about some random hot chick he just met 3 hours earlier. Shit's annoying, man.
Edit: Yeah, the overlord died far too easily for it to just be "over" for him. Then again, this show is campy as hell and the writing is clearly aimed at the 14-year-old demographic that just eats up "plot twists" like that.
That's what I'm saying. Add on top of that you basically have Karen saying straight up that it's not over etc.Edit: Yeah, the overlord died far too easily for it to just be "over" for him.

One would think, the overlord with all his brain power, after getting captured and almost dying would think to not underestimate humans, and beef up his freaking security. Especially when we get the info about how important they are (and also how stupid).
I took it more as a "It's not that easy" (to end the war).
Remember, (the Rebel Leader) DID say that the Overlords keep everything in their head and don't store anything "externally" (and a robotic creature I'd call outside source). Besides; it's quite obvious he got "infected" by the creature with the kiss Karen gave him.
They again, I suppose one could argue that they slipped the Rebels the information on purpose and staged the entire thing just to get an Overlord in to Mass 2. Would explain how it was way too easy to get to the weapon in the first place.
Star child is behind it all. Mark my words mother fuckers. You'll see.
Am I the only one that automatically thought of the Protheans the second that alien space marine came out of his pod?
Just finished season one of this, plan on watching season 2 marathon and then into the season 3 premiere. like... it's not a bad show, but not a great one either. Season 3 starts on june 6th i think.
The end of season 2 was the very best part of the show. Season 3 should be better than the first two.
Pretty good season 3 premiere. Should be interested based on the previews
Holy shit things have changed in 7 months, what a jump.
