So now they're all standed from 2159 and from the looks of it this era has other timelines converging on it (with what they found in the Badlands) also they now have a better armed enemy to worry about with the Mercs, might make for a good 2nd season.
I was really annoyed that there was this apparent awsome battle for the colony and WE NEVER GOT TO SEE A LICK OF IT. I understand budget contraints but jeez...having the gate blow up then wizzing to three days later when the colony was already lost pissed me off a little.

Yes, how "Heroes" of them to not show the big fight.
<spoilers>
Well Skye gets Josh in the end.
Solution was a bit harsh. After getting a Dino to eat all the primary investors should have thrown a spanner in the works for a bit but that was an unforeseen benefit.
Myra is pissed since she can't get back to her daughter.
If you are going to shoot someone, make sure that they can't get back up right away. Taylor's son should have been named Jason, not Lucas.
Score one for Doctor Mom.
Then there's the "twist". I'm going to guess that the like some wormholes in Star Trek, the time rift isn't actually fixed at either end naturally and the one in "present day" Earth was captured and fixed at Hope Plaza. Before that it wandered about the surface of the planet periodically slurping down stuff and most of it ended up in the Badlands. The 6ers and the remnants of the Phoenix Group are heading there hoping that they could somehow find the end in this time period and phone home for help.
As for how I feel if it ended right now. A lot better than Journeyman since this actually had sort of an ending instead of a midseason cancellation.

But like the show it was paired with out here, Ringers, it continued to fall flat every other week whilst forgetting there was a big sub-plot about a war to control the future from the past. We kept getting wet melodrama with the teens (Spielberg was producer on this; was his mandate 'family programming at all costs, let's get the Twilight market?'), only occasional thought about just how tough it would be to live in this era of history and barely enough conflict to keep the show running.
The only plot with the son betraying not only his family but potentially the colony for his girlfriend was a damp squib, being written off as 'oh, just don't lie again son, it's alright' after a build of tension.
The dinosaur era is dangerous, tense, survival territory stuff. Not 'family drama, isn't it great to live in an unpolluted Pand...I mean, Earth' business.
S.
Nobody is ever the "bad guy".
Little girl whose steals the box, brother was held hostage.
Son steals all the miracle drugs except one bottle. Well he brought back some valuable intelligence that the 6ers have 2 way communications (as an aside, why didn't they just phone home with the solutions instead of Taylor's son needing to go back). Son gets grounded between work details because it was all about a girl.
Skye is the mole. But again with the blackmail angle, 6ers have her Mom and is keeping her alive. So they rescued her Mom and all is forgiven.
Even Boylan, yes he's Quark, but other than trading with the 6ers and sort of blackmailing Taylor to stay open, again not bad. Same with Trader Joe in the market (don't remember his name), again not bad.
Mira may be the leader of the 6ers but all she really wants is to go home to her daughter in 2149. She's ticked at Taylor since his side won the mutiny/civil war the 6ers tried and because of that she's stuck there.
They saved up all the bad and poured it into Taylor's son and the powers behind the 6ers.
I'm betting Taylor and company will blow up the destination gate. I'm betting that without the fix point back in time that the two way calculations will no longer work. And they will probably do it after sending a few of the proto-raptor dinos forward to greet the 2nd wave of troops.
