Be careful what comes with the territory when you marry a sci-fi nerd. From Star Wars to Star Trek, and every science-fiction, post-apocolyptic, zombie movie in between, I'm being forced to watch them. Lucas knows I am far from a trekkie, yet he's hoping one day soon I'll excitedly flip on the television to an old re-rerun of Star Trek or even to the newer series Continuum.
This particular time I was introduced to the TV show Defiance. After watching the pilot episode, here's a bit what I know (in a really long run-on sentence): The main character, who is a badass with a soft side, and an alien girl he "adopted" after killing her parents travel across a decimated United States in search of nothing except to survive only to find themselves helping save the community who inhabits the former-St. Louis area that's now called Defiance. I believe there are seven species living together in harmony in Defiance, while they are brutally murdering each other around the rest of the country even though it's been 15 years since the original war.
