I've watched several episodes of this series and, believe me, I've TRIED to like it. Really! But it's just not gonna happen. I think it's rather weak sci-fi.
I laugh every time I hear the aliens, the Taelons, speak. If the comic geniuses from "The Kids in the Hall" or "Mad TV" did a skit imitating Earth: Final Conflict, they would sound as flamingly gay as these Taelons do. The Taelons even emphasize their "s" sounds, so that "Catch those pesky humans" becomes "Catch thossse pesssky humansss"...and then in your mind you can't help but add "...or I'll ssspank your buttockssss with a Cat O' Nine tailssss."
These aliens are prissy, pretentious, and proud of it. I think their real motive is not to invade earth, but merely to hang out in "alternative" bars and march in gay-pride parades.
Watch this with your friends, drink beer, and ad your own prissy dialogue whenever the alienssss sssspeak. It'ssss a hoot.
