How to watch ‘Invasion’ season 3 online and from anywhere

With its crawling narrative and dense characterization, Apple TV+’s underrated sci-fi drama, “Invasion,” has attracted legions of loyal fans over its three seasons who are lured to its compelling extraterrestrial infestation told from a variety of global points of view in real time.

It’s all hands on deck entering the last three episodes, as our team survived a rough landing at the edge of the Dead Zone at the Mothership Containment Wall in Alaska last week. We won’t spoil any more than that for newcomers to the show, but it’s getting every tense.

“Invasion’s” rapid rise on streaming charts has positioned the series as one of the streamer’s top titles, and its creators are hopeful that a fourth and final season will be greenlit soon. We’re over two-thirds through the current outing, but there’s still plenty of time left to accept an official invitation to join our brave heroes embarking on an infiltration mission to explore the immense crashed mothership!

Let’s peel back the details of this underrated sci-fi show and viewing guide as we cross the Dead Zone towards the chief alien awaiting our heroes in the invaders’ downed mothership!
