Med tanke på vad skaparna hade planerat för serien framöver, så var det väldigt synd att serien lades ner.. Den bästa av de tre "Invasions"-serierna som kom, imho (Invasion och Surface var de två andra).

Andre Bormanis (producent för Threshold samt inbiten medarbetar för Star Trek) pratar lite om vad som väntade serien framöver om den hade fått fortsätta. Det är inte annat än att man blir besviken på att det inte blev någon fortsättning med tanke på hur bra dom 13 avsnitten är.
I understand you worked as a writer on Brannon Braga’s Threshold. What would have happened if the show had not been cancelled after 13 episodes?
Threshold was a lot of fun. It was a terrific show…we had a great cast! It was a wonderful experience working on that, an opportunity to write a show set in the present day, which was a nice change of pace from Star Trek. I thought it was a terrific idea, based on this “contingency plan” that [lead character Molly Caffrey] created. She had to put together a group of mis-fit scientists. Clearly not squeaky clean! The character dynamics were just terrific. Unfortunately we only got to do 13 episodes. I would love to do a show like that again.
The plan that Molly created anticipated three phases if the aliens who contacted us were hostile. If the aliens established a base of operations on Earth we’d go to phase 2: Foothold. That was kind of what we imagined season 2 of the show would be about. If they actually ended up capturing most of the Earth we’d move to phase 3: Stranglehold. The human remnants would be fighting a guerrilla action against the aliens to take back the planet. That was just sort of a very rough outline of how the series might have developed. When you’re writing a TV show you can only get so far ahead of yourself! You don’t want to put yourself in a straight jacket and make the show dictated rather than written. You can buy the DVD box set, I encourage you all to do that J!
