The best episode so far was still the pilot. That felt like a mini-movie, with just enough character stuff, a tie-in to the game, and a climactic battle.

Older and Slower than you.
i like all the charaters except Irisa she cries to much and her story line is dumb. "Im the angel of death" blah blah blah. Not to mention she is ugly..why couldnt they spice her up like the dateks wife. I'll never forget his wifes charater in Spartacus. Oh yeah!!!
Every time Rafe (Graham Greene) is on screen, all I see is this:
Mr Crabby Tree - Skip to 4:00
My fellow Canadians will understand what I mean.
edited: for a much better video scene
HAHAHAHAHAHA... hilarious!
I've enjoyed the show mostly. My issue is the disjointed developement of the characters, I feel like I'm watching Eureka where Sheriff Carter in one episode would use common sense and past experience to save the day, and then watch the next episode where he seems to have become an idiot that is there only for comic relief.
Instead of the charcters developing into deep multilayered individuals, they are becoming whatever plot device is needed for that week's episode.
*Spoiler*
I really had issues with Nolan last night. He talks to the Doctor and finds out that there is a large piece of ship that is heading directly for Defiance. He's smart enough to realize that they are going to use all the gathered materials to try and transmit something to the ship.
Now lets put on the stupid cap, He gets to the Arch realizing that they are about to activate the device.
So he already knows the ship is going to impact in Defiance, what did he think them using the device was going to do?
Crash the ship into Defiance? It was already going to happen.
So them pressing the button was going to either not change Defiance getting hit by the ship or somehow cause the ship to not hit Defiance or nothing at all.
Out of those three outcomes none of them should have made him want to shoot a guy that has helped the town twice now or threaten to shoot a girl that he has raised as his own daughter.
I felt the entire scene was full of schtako!
To me it's like life why rush to the end, think there's somekind of cool raid waiting for us when we reach level (age) 65+ ?
Enjoy life don't rush it experience it, same with the game.
It's no Ghost Hunters but Defiance is pretty good
Defiance players are silly: "I hate Defiance! Welp, I'm going to go play Defiance now."
Did you never see an episode of Craprica? Continuum? There are far worse out there lol
Your Challenger won't drive? You're probably in the passenger seat.
Can't sell/delete an item? Check all of your loadouts, it's likely still equipped.
Auction house? Why? It'll just render bits purchased lock boxes pointless, and weapons are mostly equal anyway.
Gear/enemy progression? No thanks, it'll only render 90% of the content trivial when you reach the highest zone.
My biggest issue with the series, and even the game, is the lack of connection with today.
It is as though we are just suddenly plopped in the future with no history between today and the time the show starts. Why did the aliens come? Why was there a war? What happened to all the population of the planet (If the war was THAT devastating, people would STILL be talking about it)? There are highly intelligent beings still living, why has things not progressed beyond 'the wild west' stage of recovery?
The show has WAY to many holes for me to be able to suspend disbelief and get really into.
Wow. People here seem to use the word 'drama' as a curse word. It must be an age thing.
