Can somebody please get the episode table looking like the List of Glee episodes and the List of Lost episodes episode grid..? I can't seem to do it sadly. I would lie the tables to look like this as I intend to create a page for each episode as they ear, much like Glee and LOST. Thank you.— Preceding unsigned comment added by JimmyDarmodyRules ( talk • contribs)
|Title=
(with the reference in |RTitle=
), which you can link to the page of the article you have created. If you want to add a (sourced when not aired yet) episode description you unhide |ShortSummary=
(remove the <!-- and -->) and put the summary there. You have added a episode title, either unsourced or sourced by an unreliable source such as IMDb. You've also tried to add a second episode number column, that is not needed until there is a second season. (FYI you need to add a header row for that and add |EpisodeNumber2=
for every episode to do that). And you have seemingly randomly changed other parts of the article that don't really make sense to me, or were otherwise unsourced. Also, please use the preview button, or use the sandbox when preforming test edits, or if you have specific requests, you can always ask for help here.

22:31, 3 April 2011 (UTC)The pilot is called "Live and Learn" and the 2nd episode is called "The Armoury". You are idiots. Please stop removing! —Preceding unsigned comment added by JimmyDarmodyRules ( talk • contribs) 18:31, 2 May 2011 (UTC)
To the writers of the Falling Skies episode recaps: please check your mechanics, grammer and syntax in your writing. Some of the recaps are atrocious, sophmoric and incongruent. In writing the recap, focus your writing on telling the whole story, not just a play by play. Remember to give limited commentary, as it is likely to tempt the reader into watching the show. Obviously use the military jargon intended by the show's author and director, think "what are they trying to show us?" or "what lesson of warfare are they demonstrating?" -- wintersgato ( talk)
Also, I checked the word 'skitter'. That is the correct spelling, not 'skidder'. Yet, the original spelling is confusing. Didn't Tom state in episode 1 or 2, the reason the humans called the enemy 'skidders' was because their movements 'skid' across the floor? (citation needed).

First off let me just say that what you are doing is WRONG! ..."no need to distunguish a season 1 until we KNOW there's a season two...wait for renewal." ? That is so stupid. Does the fact that it hasn't been renewed mean that the upcoming season isn't SEASON ONE and will air in 2011? No! Look at
The Killing. Its list states that it is currently in its first season despite the fact AMC has yet to renew it. I will continue to revert your edit until you give me a valid reason not to. :) — Preceding

Though the dates of episodes have been announced, still it's WP:Crystalball to list them in the table as if they were facts -- all the way up to the "Season finale: August 7, 2011" . They'll probably be when the show is broadcast, but not necessarily. Shows can be and often are cancelled or pre-empted on little notice. So I will comment them all out, except the premiere.

Besides, you also worry that people will forget a page when a show is cancelled and not update "projections"? Worry that dead links will compromise the integrity of Wikipedia? What about dead pages? When a show that has already happened goes off the air and out of favor? What happens when Agnew suddenly defeats Nixon because nobody's watching that page and some editor decides to change history? That's a more realistic, prevalent and ongoing problem than the one you're worried about. Truth be told, I've fought that battle on and off on the List of King of the Hill episodes since before it went off the air. Even did an archive search a couple of times in the edit history to verify the dates when they were originally entered. As long as we're talking about what ifs; if someone changed an air date today for the List of M*A*S*H episodes, how do you know if they're vandalizing the page, or correcting an act of vandalism from three years ago that nobody noticed? There are no guarantees, but at least the practice you're so vehemently against is on active pages with active editors. KnownAlias X 13:02, 18 June 2011 (UTC)
Chicken Little told me the sky is falling! The sky is falling? I feel like i have read this many times before on many other episodes lists. The season finale of Falling Skies was a few hours ago. There were two episodes. O my!!!! Did anyone bother to consider the entire season schedule and episode summaries was released by TNT? It wouldn't be just The Futon Critic you could have sourced to; TNT releases Word documents which you can link to. If you think the domestic first-run broadcaster is an unreliable source for a broadcast schedule then there is no resolution to your concern. You might want to propose deletion of next year's olympics article because London could be hit with a massive earthquake in 13 weeks. Much like the olympics don't just happen one day tv episodes don't magically poof into existence when broadcast. There are months of planning and work that goes into it before you get to see it. delirious & lost ☯ ~hugs~ 09:10, 8 August 2011 (UTC)
