I have come to like this one a lot less than "Side Hustle", though it

It's a decent show. Not at all remarkable other than for starring the
lovely Rose McIver. Frankly she's the only reason I'm still watching
the show three episodes in.

Haven't and probably won't ever watch this but I have caught the first
two episodes of Apple's INVASION series. So far it's just laying out
the basics of who will be involved in the story without giving us much
to go on as to what the Invasion will be.

Agreed. Corbin typically delivers a fine performance.

Really? They are remaking this series? I thought the first version was
good but never would have thought it was considered good enough to
remake it. I'll give it a try because it's in my genre wheel house.

No idea. And I haven't even gotten to the season premiere yet -

A perfect example of a show that should be a "limited" 1- or 2-season
series. As an "open-ended" series, the concept is terrible... You know,
like "La Brea"!
