Well, other than that, I don't see her having much of a role on the show at all...but anything could happen...in an entire year.
Sci-Fi Defiance (SyFy)
- Thread starter Azhria Lilu
- Start date
And now I need to check my DVR.
I didn't get a chance to watch any of them. I really hope there are no major story points that were only covered in them.

Once I catch up to the show on my DVR (sadly, not one I can watch with our niece around), I'll see if they were required...I went off and watched them after they were plugged non-stop during a first-season marathon that SyFy ran several weeks back. They were only about 5 minutes long each...and only about 5 or 6 of them at that. Based on the storyline that ran through all of them, I wouldn't expect them to be required viewing.

Watched the season premiere this morning. Some great stuff. I enjoyed the contrast between where everyone was last season to this one. Also enjoyed seeing all of the other cities across America in their post-war state. Looking forward to seeing the rest of the season.
If you didn't see the mini-episodes, it really didn't hurt anything...just gives you a little bit more background on how Nolan tracks down the "cult leader."

<spoiler=Defiance Season 2 Episode 2>
A good second episode this past week...although I wasn't entirely sure why we had to have massive changes take place, only to put the mayor and Nolan back into basically the same positions they had before the E-Rep took over.
Interesting side plots going on with the other characters as well. Will be fun to see how they let the love triangle pan out between the E-Rep soldier and an Irath angel of death both pining for the lawman's sidekick (who also has his own side plot with Nolan).

I've finally caught up with watching the new Defiance episodes. As AstonWest said, watching the webisodes wasn't needed to keep up with what is going on in the new season.
Watching the new episodes back-to-back though, my question to writers would be.... was it really necessary to have two masturbation scenes like that?
With the show pushing the game tie-in so much they are obviously trying to get an audience that would include younger viewers, and I realize that some 'edge' is needed these days to keep the attention of viewers but, really, one scene wasn't enough and it couldn't be more subtle?

I think there are another 5 episodes of Defiance. As far as I'm aware that was ep8 (in the US). It's a 13 part season

Defiance has turned into one of those shows where I am watching it every week (I love our DVR ) but I am not keeping mental track of the episodes.

Was it just me, or did everyone else figure out the Indogene (sp?) twist within the first 5-10 minutes of this past week's episode? Perhaps if they hadn't already used that plot twist last season with the American astronaut?
I did like the twist at the end, though...did not see that one coming (although I probably should have, considering the timing of someone's arrival...).

I was going back and forth between either an Indogene or that somebody followed Stahma after the killing and resuscitated Kenya but once it was established what memories were there then the choices were limited.
Refresh my memory on the end because maybe I am thinking of something else.

The reveal on who the masked captor (or savior, depending on your point of view) was...
I suspect it was get the time slot freed up faster for the Fall schedule of shows.
Of the two episodes I was more surprised by the direction they are taking with Rafe's daughter. It seems they are creating quite a house of women in crime.

That was one of my first thoughts as well, but splitting it only would have delayed it a week, and most of the fall schedule of shows (at least with the channels I've seen ads for new shows on) haven't been starting up until mid to late September...
