Right first off let me say I find Falling Skies to be an awesome show, it is without doubt one of the best current shows out there; I'm NOT going to compare it to game of thrones or any of the others as that's another topic imho. While I think the show is great, one of the biggest downfalls so far was right at the end of season 2's finale episode "A More Perfect Union", in that the final shot shows the Volm landing and in particular the shot of the main Volm character that we come to know as "Cochise" landing in what appears to be quite clearly an alien pod, stepping out from this pod is a Volm soldier in a "Badass" VERY cool looking, alien suit & weapon. Now bear in mind up to this point all that the 2nd Mass (2nd Massachusetts Militia Regiment) have been through, and the actual fact of what they are involved in ... (aka a battle for their survival) Vs aliens (aka: Skitters), and not even the so called, self styled "Badass" John Pope nor anyone else from the Berserkers (aka: what I personally call "jokingly" the Tarty Goon Squad) fires a single shot at these new invaders, or for that matter ANYONE else at all :o Anyway, moving on from that little nugget is my main point, that, at the start of season 3's episode "On Thin Ice" we dont get to see what happened, all we know is that when the episode starts ..... it's six months later ...:O To say I was very disappointed with that little skip is an understatement lol. So I've now put the cat amongst the pigeons well and truly.

Well aren't tarts associated with religious personages anyway, well John "Pope" and the title to the thread go hand in hand lol. Anyhoo, as a big fan of the show and being current upto date with it (season 3) I have to say "Yes" to the title of the thread. The reason i think he is a "tart with a heart" is because he is supposed to be this bad Badass criminal self styled boss, and yet he keeps helping the guy he loves to hate "Tom Mason" and always seems to return to the 2nd Mass, even after being kicked out at one point !! ..... and if that wasn't enough he ACTUALLY helped Tom to go visit the president and saved his life in the forest after the plane crashed. So without a doubt in my mind yup he is most definitely a "Tart with a heart". +1
