Default Anybody watch "Invasion"?

I have see a couple episodes, but that is about it. I know something in the water is turning folks into "pod people". The hero is the Dean Cain looking dude. But I don't get the Sheriff guy. He was that bad dude some episode ago (the giant forehead guy who was special forces in Blackhawk down) now last night he was helping? Or was that an act, because he killed another guy ten minutes earlier?

And what was the shot of all the people in the water? Are they the "aliens" that are waiting to replace actual people, or are they people somehow trapped underwater being turned into something by the ET's?


Why are they running from the storm? And have the baddies taken over, what, part of south FLA?

I don't get whats going on.

They still have an official website (Surface) on NBC.com so maybe they have not been cancelled. I can't find an article saying they were.

Vader, I don't type well so this will be very condensed.
The yellow thingies in the water first showed up 7 years ago when the sherrif was the To me, it's too big of a jump to be an evolved species, must be aliens.only survivor in a plane crash. They have found his old body and skull, so the yellow's take your form, mind and memories. are they the next phase of evolution, or an alien? (I don't know) They appear most at hurricanes. Some people that are taken over are weird but ok, like-we think- the sherrif and the blond doctor, but others are more evil and may want to take over civilization. The military has known about them for years and are experimenting on several airman that went down in a hurricane (they flew into the eye, then crashed) and now have all been taken over and can breath underwater, or hold their breath for hours, and also heal very quickly.
All this is down in south Florida, but they can travel the currents, so who knows who else may be taken over. The real question is whether they are going to take over or if they can live peacefully with everyone. And also who/what are they and where did they come from? To me, it's too big of a jump to be evolution, they must be aliens.
