Hopefully I will be adding much content to this page!!!!
First up is an interview from Media Boulevard Magazine that appeared in November, 2007.
It is an interview of the cast of the new CW show Reaper. One of the stars of Reaper is Tyler Labine (who played Dave Groves on Shaun Cassidy's show Invasion). I am only pulling the part of Tyler's interview concerning Shaun Cassidy. (On a personal note, I'd just like to say thank you to Tyler Labine for speaking so highly of Mr. Cassidy and also for giving the fans of Invasion some insight into what a second season might have held.)

MediaBlvd> Can you talk a little bit more about what could have happened on Invasion?
Tyler> I believe Shaun Cassidy has a brilliant mind for serial TV writing. When we first sat down, he had a five-year Bible ready to go, and he made us privy to everything that was going on. We had a very linear path that we were following. The first season was, basically, setting the table. We definitely thought we were going to go for a second season. Our ratings were good and the critics really liked us, so when the show got canned, we were left with this feeling of, “That sucks!” I was privy to a little bit of information that would have been second and third season, and it just really pisses me off to not be able to talk about that. I really invested a lot into that part. The whole cast did. They were not aliens. It was an evolutionary divide. Back when we all crawled out of the mud, half the race decided to stay in the water. The rest of us took to the land. Basically, it was going to be that the underwater population had decided that they were going to invade the land and take over and make hybrids. And then, the hybrids, like Sheriff Underlay (William Fichtner), Mariel Underlay (Kari Matchett) and my sister, Larkin (Lisa Sheridan), by the end, were a bridge species. When they would be impregnated, the next generation would be the next evolutionary step. We never had a name for them. It was definitely a bit of a screw you to the audience, when we got canned, because we fully anticipated a pick-up. If you were a fan, I can’t imagine much more of a let-down for the end of a series.
