| Very rarely do horror fans get treated to | | | | convinced.and Of course there was SCI-FIs |
| anything that peaks our interest when the new | | | | brilliant series "First Wave",which was more |
| fall television season lists are released. | | | | of a SCI-FI/action series than anything. |
| ABC however is looking to change that,this | | | | |
| fall apparently.They're already mulling over | | | | |
| whether or not to pick up Stuart Townsend and | | | | |
| Gabrielle Unions paranormal series entitled | | | | So this show basically breaks new ground |
| "Nightstalker" which is an updated version of | | | | being that it's a SCI-FI/drama.But can they |
| the old 70s Darin Mcgavin series.But one | | | | keep things interesting without revealing too |
| series for us horror/sci-fi fans that has | | | | much too early is the key here.If aliens are |
| already been added to the fall slate is | | | | living amongst this towns populous,what will |
| "Invasion".The brainchild of veteran Writer | | | | follow? Weekly episodes of someone being |
| Producer Shaun Cassidy,and director Thomas | | | | outed and then getting taken down in a hail |
| Schlamme(The West Wing),this series deals | | | | of gunfire by the sheriff or concerned |
| with the everlasting theory that aliens have | | | | citizens? Eh...maybe not.Definitely a bit too |
| already visited earth and are still | | | | harsh for an ABC program thats not |
| here,living among us.While also tossing in | | | | 'Alias'.The series basic synopsis concerns |
| the small twist that recent natural disasters | | | | this family which finds itself at the center |
| within a small town,act as a smokescreen to | | | | of a conspiracy designed to mask an alien |
| hide their nefarious and insideous plans. | | | | takeover that is happening one neighbor at a |
| | | | time.So more than likely,this series will |
| | | | deal with relationships between the towns |
| | | | inhabitants and the paranoia that builds as |
| The series stars "TILT"'s Eddie Cibrian,who | | | | more and more of the alien storyline comes |
| can also be seen in this summers upcoming | | | | into play. |
| horror film The Cave.Cibrian plays a park | | | | |
| ranger/family man named Russell Varon who | | | | |
| after one of these mysterious storms,suspects | | | | |
| something isn't right when his wife is | | | | Thats just an educated guess,which should it |
| found...well lets just say *not | | | | turn out to be true,makes this a very tricky |
| decent*...with no recollection of the storm | | | | series,seeing as how it will have to give |
| which took place.After this,he begins to | | | | just enough to keep viewers interested |
| investigate things more and more,and as more | | | | without giving away too much at the start and |
| wierdness ensues,and Russell gets closer to | | | | not having anything left to surpass or match |
| the truth,our extraterrestrial friends become | | | | that in later episodes.Either way,we will see |
| increasingly unhappy about his recent fits of | | | | if this series succeeds or fails this |
| nosiness."Invasion" also stars Alexis | | | | fall,when it airs in the 10/9 pm central slot |
| Dziena,and "Dark Water"'s Ariel Gade.So what | | | | on ABC Wednesday nights.The series premier |
| can we expect from "Invasion",which is set in | | | | has yet to be scheduled for a specific |
| a suburban small town at the end of the | | | | date,but trailers for it have already popped |
| Florida Everglades?Who knows really.Not many | | | | up on ABC and the shows official homepage is |
| shows have come before it dealing with aliens | | | | already live which contains 3 video clips |
| living amongst us."The X-Files" did touch on | | | | from the series as well.I myself am looking |
| that aspect,but mainly dealt with two | | | | forward to it.It's been awhile since any |
| agents,one trying to prove aliens existed,and | | | | interesting alien shows have been on |
| the other being a skeptic,needing further | | | | television,network tv even.Mr. |
