    Growing up during the 60's as a kid I watched quite a lot of Syfi movies and TV shows. One that comes to mind is a series called "The Invaders".

      This show was really well made. I actually was able to purchase it on DVD from Amazon. I was able to relive my childhood all over again.

       Sure I could have easily pick Star Trek but this was better as it was happening here on Earth. Check it out.

  I had to look up 'EastSide...". Didn't recall that title. For what it's worth,  reviewers at IMDB gave it a really high rating. Sounds like show was ahead of it's time (meaning the general audience didn't appreciate it).
