Possessed!
I have been watching three summer science fiction shows these past few weeks: "Falling Skies," "Extant," and "Under the Dome." I have confirmed with imdb.com that Stephen Spielberg is one of the executive producers on each show. And in each show, there is some variation on the theme of extra-terrestrial aliens taking over the bodies or minds of human beings in order to advance their agenda. I just thought that was interesting--different plots, different characters, different settings, but same alien possession. The other thing I noticed is that on two of the shows: "Falling Skies" and "Under the Dome" there is an alien queen who rules her colony, albeit in different ways.
