The important thing, as far as the overall series is concerned, is that we get a pretty close look at the tentacled monsters that are attacking us. It looks like Ahmed might have been killed by an invader, but he staggers out of the house in the end.

But the woman wants the Maliks out of her house because they're too noisy, and the husband is a little too quick to point his rife.Īnd then things really get rough. They're not in league with the interstellar invaders, just insanely afraid of them, but of course it's not insane to be afraid of them. The beginning sees Aneesha struggling to get back to that house with that couple that I was suspicious of, and I was sorta of right about them. In fact, I'd say it easily is the single best episode of the season so far.įirst of all, it's an episode devoted completely to one family's storyline - an approach Foundation could stand to use, once in a while, come to think of it - and the story about the Maliks in New York was 30+ minutes of sheer adrenalin. I said yesterday that Foundation 1.9 was best of the season so far - actually, tied with Foundation 1.7 at that spot, in my opinion - and tonight I'll say that about Invasion 1.6.

Well, I'm beginning to feel like I'm handing out "best episodes of the season so far" like bouquets at the end of this week, but they're well deserved.
