Stumbled across this while browsing my news feeds this afternoon. I never really saw much of the original 1980′s series, in fact I can’t remember much at all other than the basic premise of the show. A quick check on Wikipedia provides me with a nice short synopsis of the remake that is due to air its pilot episode on July 4th in the U.S:
“The world awakens to find spaceships hovering over all major cities. Though the aliens claim to come in peace, some do not believe them. Homeland Security agent Erica Evans discovers that the aliens have plans to infiltrate our governments and businesses in a plot to take over the planet.”
Not quite the ‘Independance Day’ style invasion, much more cunning. It looks like it has promise. Here is the main trailer that is doing the rounds at the moment. Let me know your opinion in the comments.
