    The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

    A script that sees the Sheriffs Deputy cutting off his own arm after the Sheriff tells him to after the Deputy returns from the sea with an arm that had been previously missing after being duplicated by a sea going alien. If that isn't enough to cause most viewers to turn it off I don't know what is. The subsequent cascade of justifications coming from the Sheriff was obviously designed to make the whole thing believable in the context of the story line it only sound like bad scriptwriters trying to salvage trashing their own script by way of being totally stupid for whatever reason. It had real potential up to that point which is about half way through its one season run (no surprise there). Like a hamburger served with salami on it this fails to satisfy in ways that personally I've never seen before. The subtle buildup with the alien theme dead ends at this point in the project leaving viewers looking for their TV guide and an episode of Jeopardy to watch. Ho hum.

    This is a complex story about one possible way that aliens might invade earth. There are many, many plot threads that all weave together quite nicely. My wife and I have the series on DVD which allows us to playback of course if we get confused. When the series was on television, I missed the pilot and caught parts of certain episodes but couldn't follow the plot threads. On DVD it is much better. Science fiction is better when it is complex, in this case the behavioural sciences play a major role too. Congratulations to Shaun Cassidy for an excellent story. The acting and directing are excellent - even minor acting parts are done convincingly. If you are a fan of William Fichtner, he is very good here. But there are no weak actors in any of the episodes. Watch it commercial-free on DVD!

    Aliens invading Earth is nothing new of a premise, and this show seemed to pick up where the original V miniseries left off. Despite the almost cliché plot for the show, I found this story line absolutely riveting. After the first episode, I was hooked. For the most part, the acting looked fairly strong with great performances from William Fichtner, Tyler Labine, and Eddie Cibrian.As a first season of a show usually goes, there is great build up to the finale. However, since the show was canceled after the first season, I was expecting a cliffhanger of an ending, but this was not the case for me personally. The ending seemed to wrap up fairly well and left me wanting more without being too upset that I won't have enough resolution. Anyone looking for a good sci-fi like drama, this is a good series to burn through during a lazy weekend.

    There are very few shows that are as complex and thrilling as invasion. Somehow i entirely missed this shows television life, noticing it on the shelf of a local pawn shop i picked it up thinking, "meh... something to watch when I'm board" little did i know i would have the entire series done in the next two days. Overall i thought the show was perfect it isn't just a sci-fi about an alien invasion, it's more than that there are so many contributing factors to the story line. ANyways my point is invasion is a unique gem that should never have been cancelled. The show was just going in such a good direction and the note they leave us on is unfair..... This show needs to come back to at least conclude the story, i mean like come on i know for a fact there are a million angry fans out there. Someone should definitely write the producers of this show because i don't know how much longer i can go with out the answers...... PLEASE JUST FINNISH THE SHOW!!!! even with a different cast as long as you kept Tom, Mirial, Russel and Larkin... it just doesn't make sense to have such a unique and powerfully interesting plot and not conclude it. PLEASE SOMEBODY
