A couple questions

Is the miniseries a remake or a continuation? Also, does anyone know how long each episode runs? I'm trying to fix The Invaders' entry in Lengths of science fiction movie and television series. --Arctic Gnome 16:07, 15 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Spin-off Novels

A number of novels based on David Vincent were wrtitten including "the Halo Highway" and "Night of the Trilobites". Should they be mentioned in the main article? Zagubov 23:38, 12 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I don't see a reason they shouldn't be. Many other shows have similar items on their pages.--Возрождение (talk) 04:58, 6 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Fire kills the aliens ?

As I remember, the way of killing these aliens was by touching them with fire - from a match or lighter. Can anyone confirm this? If so, it should be added to the article 89.40.223.31 11:30, 5 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

There was many different ways to kill them but afterwards they would vaporize as if they burned.--Возрождение (talk) 04:56, 6 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I seem to remember Gene Hackman's character was killed by fire. It seems they were sometimes 'vapourised' by injuries whether small or fatal. --Nibi (talk) 00:53, 5 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

earlier version

wasn't there an earlier version / series with a similar title and theme about 1960? Featured men in black with a long middle finger.....

Requested move

The following discussion is an archived discussion of the proposal. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the proposal was no consensus to move the page, per the discussion below. Dekimasuよ! 08:07, 22 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This page should be moved to The Invaders (TV series) with The Invaders redirected to The Invaders (disambiguation)

Comment if moved, The Invaders (disambiguation) should be moved to The Invaders. Vegaswikian 19:41, 9 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: There's no rationale here. Is there any reason to think that this isn't the primary topic for the title? Dekimasuよ! 06:25, 13 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Ita a very generic name and at least 3 of the topics listed on the disambig page were created before this TV show. -- 69.182.73.240 17:26, 13 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose; Being the first to use the name is irrelevant, and the TV show appears to be the most notable of all the articles on the disambiguation page. Masaruemoto 03:53, 16 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Support and merge the dab page into Invasion (disambiguation), with redirect pointed there. 132.205.99.122 19:45, 16 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose both the move and the merge. The TV series is sufficiently notable to keep the unqualified title. See Talk:Invasion (disambiguation) for comments on the merge. Andrewa 17:24, 21 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The above discussion is preserved as an archive of the proposal. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on this talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

Tales of government conspiracy

Roy Thinnes supposedly claimed (I acknowledge the possibility that a tabloid journalist distorted his words) that the cancellation of THE INVADERS was really an act of suppression by the government, because the show was too close to the truth. Anyone have some recollection/evidence of this claim, because I find it very interesting and it should be included in the page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 41.242.119.197 (talk) 21:49, 5 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Without regard to conspiracy theories (I've heard this too), exactly why was the show cancelled? Was it cancelled? What were the ratings? Shouldn't this information be in the article? It seems like the story was just left hanging in the last episode. What happened? --64.149.36.27 (talk) 04:11, 22 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
