The Runaway



First it was The Birds. Then it was The Thing. And now it's Aliens? I'm not even going to address the fact that they are swiping from The Road Warrior (kinda) and The Others from LOST in how they are making the Sixers in a way. Are the writers even going to try to come up with something on their own instead of mining for stories and characters from other existing stories? Look, I don't have a problem with using a runaway kid as a story device. But I do have issues when they dress the kid up EXACTLY like Newt from Aliens. It was a blatant rip-off. No two ways about it.

Having said that, the story revolving around the Sixers and what makes them tick is what I have been waiting for. We learn why Mira is leading the resistance against Taylor and Terra Nova. Now if they can add and expand on the Sixers, the show just might survive. Right now the biggest threat to the show is not the Dino's, but the writers themselves.
