    A nice sci-fi show with Carla Gugino hide « show »

    The story lines revolve around the Threshold protocols - a 'worse-case scenario' overseen by Molly Caffrey, who specializes in creating responses to everything from atomic attacks to the plague. Each episode got more and more involved, blending more characters and beefing up the plot. Carla Gugino, as Molly, is, as usual, brilliant, beautiful, sexy and oh so smart. Every episode was edge of the seat with wonderful comedy tucked here and there. It is a scary and incredibly suspenseful thriller with a brilliant display of character involvement in the plot. That was a good show, at least CBS allow them to finish the plot.

    Amazing, mind blowing, out of this world.. I could go on till the end of time. This show is one of the best shows i've watched and it comes 2nd after Invasion on my top ten most best shows ever watched in my entire life! hide « show »

    This show was one of the best shows storywise. The story was so unique who ever came up with it (I'll hunt you down on Wikipedia don't you worry :) ) is a bloody genius!

    Its really hard finding a entirely unique SciFi show.. that hasn't been be-headed by the network execs (insert anger here).

    This show is dead and will stay dead no matter what anyone says including myself. However, I can't stop but think, why not make a movie to wrap up all loose ends with this movie? It did the trick with Firefly, why not for Threshold? I bet my bottom dollar hell I'll bet my life on it that the movie would be a huge hit purely cause of the unique story!! But it all depends who will get to direct the movie and if its Georg Lucas.. then don't bother >.>

    If only I was an Exec for a major television network!! hide « show »

    I can't believe there is a 100 word minimum for placing a review on this site. That is ridiculous, what if my review ends up being only 70 words, I clearly state my opions and views in less then 100 words.... then I must BS the rest and just bable on like I am doing now! I am only at 60 words.....

    I still believe they should bring back Threshold! It was a very well thought out show that may have been complicated to follow for some, however for those who could and did follow it, it had the potential to develope into an amazing series. I still think if they wanted to they could give it another chance or atleast give it to another network and let them reincarnate it. Bottom Line is.... Bring it Back!!!

    An alien show that keeps up an interesting story throughout without becoming cliche. hide « show »

    This is a show that definitely should have had a long run. It was an interesting idea because the aliens weren't little gray men, but were instead people who were changing into aliens. This difference makes it a unique show in many ways, and it could have been developed into a very interesting story.

    What probably didn't help this TV show is that sci-fi has a pretty limited audience base. This type of show, unless absurdly unique or having a big name attached to it (J.J. Abrams or Joss Whedon) they tend not to do extremely well on a lot of the basic cable channels.

    However, this one had potential as they had a solid group of characters. It probably didn't help that there wasn't any real romance in the story line to catch in the average drama viewer. There possibly were a few hints of it, but with the characters it really couldn't have been developed. I don't mind this fact at all as I enjoyed it as a sci-fi drama, but for commercial reasons, it probably would have helped.

    Wow is all i can say , nearly 2 years from when i first watched it i am still gutted it got canned one of the most underrated shows ever made hide « show »

    Show about an attempted alien take over of earth with a superb cast , story revolves around a think tank member Molly Caffrey who deals in how yu deal with something that shouldn'thappen actually happening and what to do if it does happen , well it did happen and its down to the red team to stop it , the story the effects the cast the premise of this happening makes for a brilliat show, which it was , but unfortunately tv execs didnt see it this way and cancelled it before they let it fully develop, if anyone can help me when is this coming out on region 2 dvd coz i need a Theshold fix , 2 years later this is what it does to me so give it a watch and you'll be the same!
