I felt like they could have let the true intent and the discovery of those among them go on for a few more episodes. Other than that, I enjoyed it and was actually mad that it was on for only an hour. I see that I'm going to really like this show. Those prison orange jumpsuits the Visitors wore in the last show are thankfully gone! The only thing I didn’t like about the V episode was that they rushed it a bit.

WSB is so annoying. They always hijack our show for stupid news - like thunderstorms or some apartment fire. Do they think they are so self-important that they supersede ABC programming??!! Rodney,

Looking forward to the wanda sykes show. she's hilarious - and is the only thing funny about 'new adventures of old christine'. 'survivor' rocks, and i'm really likin' evil russell. i wondered when pbs would dredge up the another incarnation of the leo frank story. i personally never found it all that interesting, but it probably needs to be told for those who don't know the sad story yes i remember marc singer in the original ‘V’. he sure was handsome in his day.

Similar to what happened to War of the Worlds and the current "hit" Flash-Forward. What makes anyone think that yet another 80's remake will be any better? My gut feeling is that it will be just another flip to be added to the list of current remake flops. Attention Hollywood: Just because it's 25 years old doesn't mean it needs to be remade..... Spoiler Alert: The Visitors Are Bad! (What a shock!) The 80’s version of “V” was a good show at the beginning, then turned just plain dumb.

Without realizing that they were about to bring out a new series, a couple of months back I rented the original 2 movies from Netflix and introduced my 11 y/o daughter. We saw the preview for the new show the next week and have been counting down since then. I agree with Jaynicia that the old series left much to be desired. I have high hopes for this new one.

I'm actually interested in what they'll bring to the table now that the FX have come a long way in the nearly 25 years since the series.
