New "Falling Skies" showrunner David Eick has started to put together a strong writing staff for the hit TNT drama’s fourth season. Veteran showrunner Carol Barbee has joined the alien-invasion series as a consulting producer. She recently worked with Eick on Fox’s "Touch" where she was an executive producer and he was a consulting producer.
Season 3 of "Falling Skies", executive produced by Steven Spielberg and starring Noah Wyle, kicks off with a two-hour premiere June 9. It is yet to be renewed for a fourth season though that is considered a formality as "Falling Skies" is TNT’s #1 scripted series in the younger demos.
Barbee previously served as executive producer/showrunner on cult CBS drama "Jericho" which, similarly to "Falling Skies", was set in a post-apocalyptic world.
