You're thinking of a mini-series turned into weekly serial called "V", with Mark Singer (formerly of The Beastmaster). The aliens were really lizards underneath.
I loved that show. I was in middle school at the time, and man, at lunch, it was all about "Did you see V last night, when Diana ate the mouse? Yea,,,,it was cool"

Thanks for the memories, CitizenM. I needed to get those neurons firing again! NOTE TO MY HUSBAND: DVD OF "V" for Christmas stocking stuffer.....

You know the letter "V" kept running through my head. I even googled it. Since I didn't find what I thought I would, I then thought it was the movie "Alien." But you are right. It was that show. I did not watch it a lot, but my kids did. Yep. That's the analogy - "V" and Aruba! Thanks!
