I AM 2(lol)!!!! I loved it as a kid in the 80s. The show was kinda shortlived. I'm excited to see what they are going to do with it on a different network and with Morris Chestnut's fine self in the mix. Does anybody know if they are still going to turn into lizards?

Yeah, and they get jobs selling insurance for GEICO.

I saw the pilot episode at Comic Con...it was interesting. I believe I heard they did some re-shoots, so not too sure if what will be shown, I will look at it again.
I loved the show in the 80s

I am also a fan of the show from the 80s. Wasn't it just a mini series though? I wonder if Marc Singer will guest star? (always had a crush on him)

It was two miniseries AND a tv show (only on for one season though).

Okay what exactly is this show supposed to be about?
From the previews I gather that an alien craft comes and "parks itself" over NYC. They "claim" they are here in peace...
Obviously there has to be some sort of "conflict" otherwise the show won't last, from the original show (miniseries and tv) what was the "conflict"? Was it just the human race being skeptical (which I can totally see us doing)?

The original premise was that the aliens came "in peace" but were really here to steal our water and eat us.
The aliens used the media to manipulate the public intro trusting them, and discredited scientists -- the ones who were most likely to uncover the trust. It was a World War II/Nazi Germany allegory.
The new version is supposed to be about the loss of personal liberty and homeland security.

It looks interesting, and I actually remember a episode of SG1 about more or less the same thing. I'm conflicted though because it is on the same time as NCIS.
