Tyler Labine revealed that he had a personal conversation with series creator Shaun Cassidy about what would have happened during Season 2 of Invasion.
“Shaun told me Larkin was going to [be presumed dead]. I was going to get all militant and shave my head, and Russell and I were going to join forces against Tom.

Even with a lead-in like the hit show Lost, Invasion suffered a dramatic downturn in viewers, and ABC decided not to renew the alien mystery series, though it attracted about 10 million viewers a week.

With ABC’s new fall schedule being releasd this Tuesday, word is going around that ABC does not intend to pick up Invasion for a second season. But that bad news could have a silver lining. It appears that The CW is interested in bringing Invasion to its new network should ABC fail to sign it up for a second season.
Invasion is a very entertaining Science Fiction show, much like Surface. And both shows left us with cliffhanger season finales that I want to see resolved. Ideally they both get renewed for second season, but if not, at least there is hope for another a season of Invasion. Hopefully The CW or another network is looking at Surface too because both of these shows are entertaining, and that is a rare quality in freshman series this year.
