Sunday evening’s two-hour premiere of the TNT series Falling Skies was seen by over 5.9 million viewers, making it the #1 cable series launch of this year.  Produced by Steven Spielberg, the show centers on a group of survivors (Noah Wyle, Moon Bloodgood) trying to survive on a daily basis after an alien attack.  “The enormous success of Falling Skies demonstrates what can happen when you partner with the biggest people in the business and give them what they need to do their very best work,” said Michael Wright, Executive Vice President, Head of Programming of TNT, TCM, and TBS.  “TNT’s Falling Skies is an exciting, fascinating and often moving story made possible through DreamWorks Television, an incredibly talented cast led by Noah Wyle, and one of the greatest storytellers of our time, Steven Spielberg.”
