In 45 minutes the show implied that V's were responsible for the Iraq war, the N1H1 virus, terrorism...and they bring the most terrific of menaces....universal health care!! No mystery, no suspense (I know...already people know they are lizards)... just a plot twist that really got me off guard... but overall it felt rushed. If someone doesn't eat a rat soon I will feel cheated... The good: Anna is a hottie!

I missed it! Going to have to catch the episode on the internet. I think they put it up Fri. Hope this is done well, but it's hard to imagine ABC doing sci fi for some reason, much less with a proper budget these days.

The SciFi channel replayed the original 'V' last weekend.
The new 'V' just doesn't hold up - even as a re-make. The original V had some of that 1980's cheese factor BUT at least the characters were more interesting than what I've seen of the new V so far.

Okay so 4 eps in and I have to rescue this thread? You guys are slacking. So I was pretty much nonplussed for the first two eps. It felt like they were in a rush to shoehorn in all the "setup" plot points so they could get to the episodic content as expeditiously as possible. Not nearly as enthralling imho as the way the original unfolded. Still, eps 3 and 4 have been decent enough and established a few plots that could be interesting that I have not written it off yet. And I am, of course, interested to know what they have devised for the V's endgame. I think if they take too long before revealing the endgame and taking the show to a larger conflict with the resistance it could get old quick.
