Quote
Giant spaceships appear over 29 major cities throughout the world, and Anna (Morena Baccarin), the beautiful and charismatic leader of the extra-terrestrial "Visitors", claims to come in peace. As a small number of humans begin to doubt the sincerity of the seemingly benevolent Visitors, FBI counter-terrorism agent Erica Evans (Elizabeth Mitchell) discovers that the aliens have spent decades infiltrating human governments, businesses, and religious institutions and are now in the final stages of their plan to take over the Earth. Erica joins the resistance movement, which includes Ryan (Morris Chestnut), a Visitor sleeper agent who wants to save humanity. The Visitors have won favor among the people of Earth by curing a variety of diseases, and have recruited Earth's youth — including Erica's son Tyler (Logan Huffman) — to serve them unknowingly as spies.

I was all excited when I first heard about it (there's a thread on here somewhere), but I sort of forgot about it.
Yup

You can still catch up. They released 4 episodes, then came a long break because of the winter olympic games, and continued after. So now we are only after 10 episodes, out of 12 total that first season have.

Good sci-fi series is hard to find.

I'm getting drawn into it.  Set it up as a series recording on my DVR. 

Can't stand Scott Wolf's character (can't really stand Scott Wolf, either). 

Anna's a great villain.  The writers are doing a great job with her. 

Wondering if the Valerie/Ryan pregnancy is gonna end with the same hilarity as the birth scene in the original?

For anyone that hasn't seen it, I strongly suggest going to Youtube.

You will not be disappointed!  ;D
