Title: V
Post by: Andre Dawson's Creek on May 20, 2009, 01:23:58 PM
New clips from the V remake.  Morena Baccarin was much hotter in the Nathan Fillion show, Firefly.  Even in the Ben Browder show, Stargate.  I'm a sap for long hair.  She's still cute, though.  And when did Scott Wolf find the fountain of youth?

I can't wait for this. I watched the miniseries when I was a kid and the lizard people scared the piss out of me. Watching the show recently was so sad.

Looks like she's not going to be eating any guinea pigs, though.

Really?  I watched it again a few years back and still loved every minute of it.

I'm in the same boat on this one as I was on Flash Forward. Good premise and production values, but some awful dialogue and one truly annoying character (Juliet's weenie son). Never seen the original so I'm not sure how it compares. I'll give it a few weeks.

At least David Icke (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Icke#Reptilian_humanoids) had some good JO material last night.

It was an okay start and seems to be running along the same premise as the original, of which I liked when I was young. I'm already rooting for the demise of said weenie son.

Was there a new one on last night? I didn't see it on my TiVo this morning.

Yeah, you missed an hour of terrible television. They took a steamer on any potential the pilot showed. I'm done with it.

Other than the son being a huge weiner (and flashing that horrid smile every time he was on camera.  Seroiusly, that kid has issues), what was wrong with it?

I guess other than the awful writing, bad acting, and predictable and cliche-ridden storylines, it was good.

I truly wish evil upon that kid. If his demise isn't met swiftly and brutally, I'll be disappointed. That kid should be on Gossip Girl.

It seemed like a very flat episode to me. No advance of any interesting plotlines (i.e. the resistance, the V sleeper cell and it's purpose, or the real reason for the Vs being there). I'll stick with it through this fall batch and see what happens.

Fortunately, you only have two more episodes to watch.

Anyone watch the new episode?  It's on the DVR so we can watch it this weekend.  I know we'll end up watching whatever else they'll show assuming it's probably canceled before it really got a chance.  Just wondering if it's worth it.
