The Visitors are here. And, they’re here to help. Join them.
Who’s got guinea pig on the menu tonight?
I can’t wait!
For the record, I was a huge fan of the original. Even the awful sequel mini-series (V: The Final Battle), and the inevitable series-series. But hey, I was eleven.
I’ve tried to remain as spoiler free as much as possible. The only thing I’ve seen is the official trailer.
Me too! My friend and I even ran around the playground at school climbing the equipment and pretending we were escaping through the conveniently man-sized air ducts of the alien vessel!
But if there’s no Mike Donovan or Ham Tyler in this series, I ain’t watchin’.
Oh, dear. This might be a bit too political for Obama supporters.
It’s double duty for the DVR with my wife’s one-two punch of Biggest Loser and SYTYCDance, so I’m going to have to hold out hope that ABC streams it easily enough…
Nah. I’ve always known he was a totalitarian space lizard. I voted for him anyway.
As the lesser of two evils! 
Ha! So did we. I remember using magic markers to color a lizard pattern on the underside of my forearm, then cover it using liquid latex and makeup before school started. Then at recess, (I always played the role of Martin*) I’d tear off the skin to achieve maximum playground geekery. I was a GOD in 1984.
That said, I doubt there’ll be any over-the-top Donovans or Tylers in this series. Maybe it’s for the best.
*I didn’t want to be Donovan, because I thought it’d be cooler to play a treasonous lizard.
Don’t blame me etc. 
Yeh, but… Universal Health Care… literally.
Don’t cha hate when you peak so young ? 
I too look forward to this.
Who said I peaked?
RIPS OFF FULL BODY SKIN TO REVEAL COMPLETE REPTILLIAN FORM WHILE EATING A FLYING SQUIRREL
RRrrAAaarrrrLLGGGGGgggrrrrrrRRR!
I wonder if there will be any nod to the original series.
:rolleyes: Good god. Not everything is political and you’d think someone doing a write-up of a sci-fi show would realize that “We bring gifts/change for humanity” is not exactly a new trope.
It was even part of the plot of the original V!
My money is one very quick and debateable lizard tongue sighting that is never seen or discussed again.
But this is the first time in history the US has had an alien for president
Was anyone else a bit miffed about how in that clip of the first 8 minutes that was online…
…we didn’t see anthing other than NYC? The original showed us a bunch of shots of them arriving all over the world. I understand this is an American show, but I want to see the global impact. At least setting most of the action in NYC (home of the UN) instead of LA (home of Hollywood) is a start.
I kind of hope they keep some semblance to the original V symbol… that stylized swastika thing.
It’d be cool to see a Robert Englund or Marc Singer cameo, too.
