Anybody else watching "Invasion"??
The whole hurricane storyline hits a bit close to home, but I'm all for the freaky alien part.

Discuss.

3. I wasn't going to but
then I found out that the director is Thomas Shlamme (of West Wing fame), and though it might be worth a try.

5. Watching it right now.
I'm a sucker for anything that remotely looks like sci-fi. Hope the networks get it right this time.

17. Ah!
That explains how he just broke out in a long string of flawless Spanish. I didn't know he was Cuban.

26. I'm not sure.
They've done exactly zero character development so far. But with the exception of that one scene, where he was talking to another law enforcement agent (I think), he's been speaking accent-less English. :shrug:

No character development?
That's strange for the first show. I guess they're saving it for future eps. I wanted to watch it, it looked good but I am at work.
I work nights so it's hard to get caught up with TV shows.

30. They're trying to squish a LOT into an hour
I'm hoping it's just a case of "we have to get through this before we can get to the real story".

38. I'd say it has potential.
They've got to slow it down and develop the storyline more, but yeah...it could be good.

And hells yeah, the Hot Cuban doesn't hurt!

10. Looks very iffy so far.
Not impressed with the dialog at all. The whole show seems forced to me. Of course, I'm watching it, so.... that makes me a big fat hypocrite

13. I agree about the "forced" part
but I'm hoping it's because they were like, ok, we have to shoot this hurricane scene before we can get to the actual story...and therefore, the dialog might get better once the real story starts. :shrug:

43. "Mommy...you smell different..."
Yeah, I'd say so. And I'm guessing something's not all normal with her creepy-ass cop boyfriend. Or the older daughter.
