no more of those black footballs on match stick legs

I'm debating with myself if I would prefer that you drop the show (and we get less criticism in the thread) or that you continue to watch it, so we get more hilarious criticism like this one. lol

I loved the close-up shots in 1x9, really alien aliens are quite rare. smile

well the close up shots were so dark I couldnt see much.
looked some thing like this

Good final season 1 episode (but not great).

Spoiler

Did we ever get a "Wajo" explanation? Was it the aliens testing their speech synthesis?

Re: Invasion (2021) [Drama, Action, Sci-Fi] (Apple TV+)

well eps 10 I wish the aliens had succeeded.

Spoiler

but it seems the rumblings in their fallen space ship means they will be back

The best bit was the title music, that is clearly where all the money was spent

reviews seem to be poor

mostly 1-3/10 many1's

I am gone!

Um...... aside from those rumblings (which could mean anything):

Spoiler

Did you not see the GIANT ALIEN SPACE SHIP in the sky when the soldier and his gf were at the beach?

Re: Invasion (2021) [Drama, Action, Sci-Fi] (Apple TV+)

well season 2 got off to a good start

Spoiler

with lots of the spikey footballs doing their thing - Clearly they were told  to come out of the shadows or the season would be cancelled?
The characters have had a makeover - Doctor Mom is now a Sarah Jane Connor and the Japanesse girl who cries a lot  is a freedom fighter.

looking good. Hopefully better than Season 1 that took suspense to an extreme

I'm struggling with S02E02. It's a tough cookie. Story all over the place.

Re: Invasion (2021) [Drama, Action, Sci-Fi] (Apple TV+)

Not struggling over here, but this show is still painfully slow at times! big_smile

The transition from eps 1 to 2 was too blunt and a bit of a let down. I suppose they used up a lot of their cgi budget in eps 1.

Spoiler

The strange thing is that the aliens clearly out to kill off the humans so why the Japanese love story now entangled in the alien ship?

2x3 finally brought some overdue big-scale payback. cool Good episode!

I wonder if 2x4 will bring some setbacks or reveal unintended negative consequences...

yes eps 3 was a goodun. I think it is the kids part of the series ,when soley kids with no major adult input, that drags the show down - feels like should be on at 4-5pm for when kids come home from school.

Meeh... arguably Fury made things worse.
