I loved this show when it was first shown here in the UK in the late 60's. The sci-fi plot, the paranoia and Vincent's struggle to be taken seriously kept it on the boil. For a while. But for me, the recipe was repeated too many times, especially in the first season. The second season made more of an effort to move the story on, and Vincent at last began to gather a handful of disciples who were convinced of his story and helped him warn the authorities. Sadly, the show was brought to a premature end, with only a voice-over telling us that David Vincent and his team would remain vigilant, watching out for any return of the enemy. I always had the feeling that there was a third season planned, but that the studio bosses had decided to can it. It's still good to watch even today (we have it on DVD), and it is a good example of all those series we used to enjoy back then.
