Yes, it has a bit of a slow pacing. Yes, it borrowed a lot from War of the Worlds. But despite this, it has very good acting, great computer effects, good story telling and enough tension to keep you skip to the next episode. If you consider this a War of the Worlds adaption, it is the best one. It would be a shame if there will be no second season.
The threat has evolved.
Earth is visited by an alien species that threatens humanity's existence. Events unfold in real time through the eyes of five ordinary people across the globe as they struggle to make sense of the chaos unraveling around them.

Reviews
Slow and uninspiring, with aliens that look a lot like furbees with spikes. In short, I can't recommend this sci fi stinker, on any level.
**Invasion: Delusions of Grandeur** Not so much "slow burn" but more "no burn". I'm quite partial to slow sci-fi, but this has no characters I can care about, zero charm or personality, and a glacial non-sensical plot. It mistakes "sombre and ponderous" for "meaningful": it's basically B-movie, ID4-style schlock, but thinks it's Citizen Kane. I write this after watching Season 2 Episode 5. I keep thinking…
Absolutely garbage. The story is as slow as the molasses pouring. It is NOT sci-fi. It is more like Days of Our Lives spin-off or something. I DO NOT recommend this as a sci-fi series. But if you are into noontime soap show, then I highly recommend this.
