The remaining episodes were first broadcast by the British broadcaster Sky One .

action

On September 16, 2005, an alien probe appeared in front of a freighter and emitted a high-frequency signal. Much of the crew died as a result. The survivors change and become stronger and more resilient. They are driven by the impulse to infect other people by first using the alien signal, later also with the help of manipulated food. To stop this threat, the Threshold organization, led by Dr. Molly Anne Caffrey launched. With the help of various specialists, she tries to stop the invasion.
