WOW this was a GREAT show. How in the world did it get cancelled? Network tv is just garbage. They air trash and cancel good shows. I remember watching this when it was on but I don't think I really appreciated or realized how good it was because I was so invested in Lost at the time. What a shame. This is probably the best cancelled show I've ever watched and rewatching it a decade later really makes me pissed off that this got cancelled. What a joke...
sharei loved it from the start in 2005 and i have been left hanging since the last cliff hang episode in 2006... and i have been pissed off ever since, i heard they cancelled it. they should do a rerun of season1 and make a season2 where they gives the darn show an ending. i lost a lot of faith in tv shows after this one was cancelled.
shareI think ABC just wanted another "Lost" type show and when it didn't become that they decided to cancel it. Clearly a mistake and an awful one at that.
shareFor sure. I wish that Invasion had originally been picked up by a premium channel like HBO or Showtime. They surely would have at least given it two years to show what it can do.
shareYeah it was a great show but the network doesn't love it apparently.
shareWhat was great about this show was the invasion plan is structured pretty much flawlessly that it makes such great sense and an excellent plan. Make copies of humans, that have no idea they are copies, which are altered to be breeding vessels for the actual invading species. The copy/host carries on almost undetectable and for the most part unbeknownst even to themselves and without any knowledge of what has actually taken place or that there is even some agenda in play. It's especially brilliant if in the actual birthing the host dies because it destroys any potential future opposition.
I would have loved to seen how this played out. This is one of the reasons I hate American TV productions that end seasons on a cliffhanger instead of a conclusion because if the show isn't picked up for another season the viewing audience gets screwed. You would think that if they knew a show was going to be canceled, one that ran for at least a full season, that they would at least make some sort of impromptu ending for the sake of appeasing the viewers who followed the show for that long.
