JackFetch Posted January 27, 2009 Report Posted January 27, 2009 I thought there was thread on "V" already but couldn't find it. ABC has given a pilot order to a new take on the 1980s miniseries "V," which was about an alien invasion. Written by "The 4400" co-creator/executive producer Scott Peters, the new "V" will center on a female Homeland Security agent. Peters is executive producing the pilot with HDFilms principal Jason Hall. http://www.comingsoon.net/news/tvnews.php?id=52289 Quote
drqshadow Posted January 27, 2009 Report Posted January 27, 2009 I loathe the number of terrible remakes on TV and in theaters today, but if there were ever a series that badly needed a refresh it's this one. The original's special effects are so cheesy it's tough to watch. Quote
S-T Posted January 28, 2009 Report Posted January 28, 2009 I loved "V" back in the day, so I am really looking forward to this. Quote
JackFetch Posted March 9, 2009 Author Report Posted March 9, 2009 Morena Baccarin (Serenity, "Firefly") will play a lead in ABC's "V," says The Hollywood Reporter. "V," from WBTV, is a re-imagining of the 1980s miniseries about an invasion of aliens known as Visitors and the resistance against them. Baccarin will play Anna, the leader of the Visitors who is remarkably knowledgeable about human culture and media manipulation. http://www.comingsoon.net/news/tvnews.php?id=53552 Quote
Stavros Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 I'll say this, she is extraordinarily pretty. Quote
JackFetch Posted May 21, 2009 Author Report Posted May 21, 2009 The trailer: http://io9.com/5263345/actual-v-trailer-de...-upon-the-earth Quote
Dread Posted May 21, 2009 Report Posted May 21, 2009 And here I thought I wouldn't be watching any new shows this Fall... Quote
Stavros Posted May 21, 2009 Report Posted May 21, 2009 Took me a minute to recognise Morena in that with her new hair. Looks good though, there's a decent cast at work here. Quote
Venneh Posted May 21, 2009 Report Posted May 21, 2009 Never heard of this series, and the trailer intrigues me. Also, it has an Alan Tudyk. Quote
Stavros Posted May 21, 2009 Report Posted May 21, 2009 Never heard of this series, and the trailer intrigues me. Also, it has an Alan Tudyk. Really? That can only be good, everything is better with an Alan Tudyk. Quote
Venneh Posted May 21, 2009 Report Posted May 21, 2009 Apparently he shows up in the pilot ep, according to Wiki. Quote
JackFetch Posted November 19, 2009 Author Report Posted November 19, 2009 The ratings are dropping like stones each week. Is anyone watching it? I haven't been since the pilot. Quote
Venneh Posted November 19, 2009 Report Posted November 19, 2009 I've been downloading it because streaming doesn't work out here at all. I've been feeling eh about it, it hasn't gone and wowed me like Castle has. Quote
KnightWing Posted November 19, 2009 Report Posted November 19, 2009 ...wowed me like Castle has. ! Castle > V. I will agree with this. Quote
NightAngle04 Posted November 19, 2009 Report Posted November 19, 2009 I haven't really cared about anything other than seeing Kara naked. Quote
Chadzilla Posted November 19, 2009 Report Posted November 19, 2009 The first episode was really underwhelming, just a rehash of the first mini-series that speed through all the major set-up in the blink of an eye, so there was no suspense or haracter development worth a damn. Second episode was a tad better. I'll probably keep it in Tivo for a rainy day. Quote
JackFetch Posted January 13, 2011 Author Report Posted January 13, 2011 Prepare for a cancellation soon. They just pulled it off Hulu and ABC.com, and it's ratings are terrible. Quote
