What do you guys think of the new series "V" on ABC?

I really like it so far.

I have both dvds of the original two. I honestly think that this one is better. It was just so cool at the time it came out though.

definitely have the DVR set!

Recently saw it on Hulu.

It's moving a bit fast don't you think? They've been revealed as lizard people and a resistance is starting already.

There's no suspense. It's nice looking but doesn't have a direction. I've heard the show had stopped production to get a new producer and writers. That's not good news.

I agree with Mistergreen. Way too fast to hold my attention.

Also, it seems to directly follow suit with the story line from 20 years ago from waht I have read so far. I don't beleive the original finished the way that was intended.


EDIT:

Did a quick search and found some of what I read on IMDB.

SPOILER: Because the series was canceled, the producers had no way to finish the story because the first season ended with a cliffhanger. Interest in the ongoing comic series had also waned, and it was canceled as well. Thanks to the warning the comic-book writers had received, they were able to write a 2-part story that served as the official ending for both the TV series and the comic-book series: the Leader sends his only child to Earth, who is befriended by the resistance. In spite of the war-minded Visitors plotting an assassination attempt to frame the humans, he was returned safely to the leader, and as a gesture of thanks, he recalled the attacking fleet from Earth.
