Invasion (2021) quick thoughts


Well, here's another Invasion.  This time this is on Apple+ and Earth is being invaded by beings unknown.  This one is a  much more overt invasion compared to the other Invasion show that was replacing humans with human-alien hybrids. There are two seasons out now on Apple+ and from the hate you might see on Reddit, you might think that this show stinks.  It is a slow burn, and the first season has a  lot of subtitles because it follows our protagonist across the continents as we see their individual story threads play out.  There's a soldier over in Afghanistan whose entire unit get wiped out by some force, but he survives. There's a kid in the UK who has seizures and sees things, for example he sees our soldier (...errr...sorry... "operator") as well as the aliens.  There is a couple in the US who deals with the husband cheating just as the whole insanity kicks off, and you've got Japan's space agency putting a crew in space, and things go horribly wrong. What we see by the end is that the invasion is global. 

In season two, we see how some parts of the world are sheltered from this (I mean, they are having backyard barbecues for crying out loud!) while others are trying to survive the invasion by a  kind of black hellbug kind of lifeform (see the show Defiance for Hellbug).  The effort to fight off the invaders is global, but cooperation isn't always that great.  For all the drills that we have in all those agencies, things still fall apart in the end 🤔.  In any case, season two ends in a "we're gonna get some answers!" kind of moment...but I guess we have to wait for season three to see what the answers are.

My main question is... WTF is "wajo"?
