The story is good, its just too bad that the script has to resort to all the soap opera tricks to get it over. Invasion is full of the following...."I need to talk to you....." "I don't have time right now"...This is a tired plot device. Also features...."I don't trust you" "We can't tell anyone just yet" " I need you to come with me right now" "I'm not sure that this strange thing is really strange" "I just want my kids to be protected" "I don't want my kids bothered by this" "Daddy doesn't really love me" "Wow you've changed since the event"This kind of writing treats the audience as stupid. Real people don't distrust each other like this. Real people know each other much better than this. People don't get off work like this. Real people don't go in the water if they know it can change them. Real people don't ignore what is going on around them.The story is interesting from a science point of view, but assumes so low a level of social and mental development in the characters that it is difficult to listen to, let alone watch some of the episodes.

OK first, this review contains MEGA SPOILERS! I give Invasion a 2 out of 10 just because the idea could have been great. But like so many other shows got completely screwed up.Here's the big problem :Basically some sort of alien stingray in the water grabs people then uses tentacles to copy the DNA, and then (This is the part that all the characters in the show don't GET?!?) ... after copying the DNA.....IT KILLS THEM!!!!!! Then goes on to make a copy and that's what walks out of the water and gets back in the city.Even at one point the teenage girl wants to become like them, and her dad now knowing that basically it means that she will get KILLED and whatever comes back is not her, doesn't even tell her that little piece of information, that would probably make her go : "OH, didn't know that, guess I won't do it then.And there lies the problem, no one ever actually point the fact that these thing in the water don't CHANGE you, they KILL YOU!Even the last episodes, after knowing everything, the guy takes the wife of the other guy that's been shot, and brings her to the water to have her come back to life?!?! SHE WILL GET KILLED ANYWAYS, so why not let her die on land.You know what that reminds me of? PET SEMETARY!!!!Remember how the old man says to the father : "SOMETIMES DEAD IS BETTAR!" but there he goes and does it anyways. Even after it went so well with his cat. And then at the end, does it again with his wife!This show could have been good, if only they made the characters not so stupid in believing that the people or HYBRIDS they called them are not the people they knew. They are copies and their relatives or friends were KILLED.nuff said....

Guys whats wrong with you? Invasion is the most exciting series I ever seen. What happen with the second season? Im still waiting since 2006 the last chapter. It's 2009 and what the hell you waiting for. I want the sequel now so let's start working. The first chapter was awesome, I really like it. I follow the whole season and in the final chapter I felt disappointed. As I said Invasion is one of the most exciting series i ever seen. Why there is no a second season? I am a fan from the show and I still waiting for the second season so please do something about it. If you do that you will be sure that I'll be the first in buying the whole season. So keep that in mind. Thanks.

Very good TV show, with no end. William Fichtner(love him in a Prison Break) as sheriff and Eddie Cibrian as Russell was great acting. Very original way to see invasion on earth, there is something in the water, as you watch show you discovering what it is, is it good or is it bad, does it make people better, or make it worse...very interesting, and than what, end of the show :( . Acting was good, production was good, effect was god...Invasion have everything to become great TV show. I see many TV shows that are much worse than this one, and they have 4, 5 season. I really hate those TV network who start something, and doesn't finished. It is great contempt to fans of show, and it is not all right. I am very disappointed.
