"V"
 
Anyone else looking forward to this? I watched the original when I was a kid 25 years ago or so and now they redid it. This show was the shit in the early 80's although watching the original now it looks like 80's cheese. I hope this one is decent.

Hope this is good!

Lost is ending soon so ABC needs another good show to ride it out with.

i cant see the new V stacking up with the old one, the old one was cool and scary at the sametime

One of my former co-workers from SV is one of the female leads on V and just from talking to her I'm not too sure this show will survive, theres been a who bunch of production problems and script issues. The studio already shut down production on V last month for 16 days because of script & creative problems and now production has shut down again for another 2 weeks. The production is becoming a bit of a clusterfuck.

All I remember about the original series are the commercials, and they kind of scared the shit out of me.. I think I would have been 4 or 5 at the time.

I'd rather see an Alien Nation reboot without the wholesome message the original had.

First Episode is tonight, not sure what to expect.

CA_FTW 11-03-2009 07:33 AM

its getting some Ok reviews..

so im looking forward.. I never saw the original.. I downloaded on Episode it looks to lame to watch.. Hope this is good.

Loved the premiere. Having not seen the miniseries in the 80s I didn't know the basic storyline and thought it was a little slow for the first half. Once they reveal where they are going with the show I was hooked. What did you guys think?

Spoiler!

quasi 11-03-2009 05:47 PM

I watched the early one as well and thought it was pretty good. It seems to be the same story as the original which is cool, I watch at least a couple more episodes and see where it goes.

JSALES 11-03-2009 07:07 PM

i didn't know what the show was but when i was flipping through channels it looked pretty crazy just watching a few minutes of it, didn't know it was "V"

StylinRed 11-03-2009 11:15 PM

thought it was pretty good, i like the fact that theres so many hot chicks ^^ "Anna" "Supergirl" and the milf from Lost



edit: woah didnt know Anna is the chick from firefly/serenity

SlySi 11-04-2009 11:19 AM

Love the original.
Even watched the original couple years ago. Rented it from Blockbuster....

Cant wait for the new one. From what Iv read.. doesnt look good for them after the pilot season.

CA_FTW 11-04-2009 04:05 PM

I enjoyed it..

We will see how this season goes.

Saw quite a few good shots of the building I worked in last summer. I noticed they edited out any logos but It's still easy to pick out.

OMG I recognized almost every setting they shot at lol. Its like the V's visited Vancouver!

BTW are any of the producers or something related to Serenity/Firefly? I noticed they hired two actors from Serenity which I found odd.

Likely just a coincidence that there are two actors from Firefly in the show. If there were more I would be more suspicious. Sci-fi actors often join other sci-fi shows for some reason. It definitely wasn't a coincidence that Alan Tudyk was on Dollhouse however.

This week's Castle, Nathan Fillion dresses up for Hallowe'en looking pretty much like Malcolm Reynolds :) There were a few Buffy references as well ;)
