Since we sort of already know where 'V' is headed. If anyone wants to read VisitorSite.Net's review of the series, feel free to go here:

More than 25 years after the first V mini-series hit the airwaves, V will be returning to television screens with a well-cast revival that - unlike many other recent remakes - actually delivers and in some ways surpasses the original model.

At least it looks promising, which is a good thing for Morena and Alan.

Thanks Haken, it sure sounds 'shiny'! Did anybody notice on the pic of Alan and the blonde FBI agent, the caption at the top says "Alpha, (and then its crossed out)and the charactor's name is there instead of "Alpha"...FF & Doll fan maybe?

"unlike many other recent remakes - actually delivers and in some ways surpasses the original model"

But wouldn't we agree that the BSG remake delivered and surpased the original?

It certainly started out that way, but floundered around so much for the last season and a half - give or take an episode.

Yes BSG reimagining is quite better and substantial than the original series.

I keep thinking that Firefly will be like the original BSG. It wasn't well understood during it's time but maybe 20 years after it's first run they make a remake/reimagining that will blow our minds insane!

(Sorry to hijack the thread from V)

I hope the new V series does well too. I totally get why they cast Morena as the lead of the Visitors. She's too pretty to be from Earth. Hahah.

BSG sucked, and its original was camp

hopefully V will be a much better reboot

Early previews I've seen look pretty amazing. I would check it out, at least, even if Morena and Alan WEREN'T part of it. That they are in it just comes as that much more reason to watch.

Never saw the original. It came around at a time when I didn't own a TV, and was working three jobs.
