New version just started... geeked out over the weekend and watched the marathon on Sci Fi. Anyone else hoping this is a cool retake on the 1st?
10 min in and like. [thumbsup]
Holy shit! Steve the pirate is in it! [laugh]
Or Wash... depending on your frame of reference
Touché.
Finishing up the 83 series before starting the new...

best show that ever got cancelled
Still chaps my ass that it was cut so fast.
Hmm little hard to say about V after one hour. Pretty much put it all on the table already - not quite the build up method of the plot development from the first version.
I was thinking the same thing.
Happy to expand on that if this thread is a spoiler.
Damn it. I had to work and missed it.

Let's see...
2 possible love interests
mother and son conflict
the fact that V's have been living among us
the resistance (humans)
the resistance (underground V's)
betrayal
several violent deaths
All in the first hour. They could have eased into it and built some suspense.
I hope this isn't like pancakes... all exciting at first, but by the end you're make the beast with two backsing sick of 'em.
:-\

LOLz
didn't see it, I'm still kind of fearing that another piece of my geeky childhood will get trampled on
and +1 on firefly being the uber
Stupid make the beast with two backsing DVR didn't record it! Then, looking into next week, it doesn't even show it. During that time slot, all it says is "To Be Announced"...
[bang]
Check and see if a service like Hulu will have it or replays on Sci Fi
I checked. There is no instance of V when you do a search, on any channel. Looks like I'll have to find it online and hook the laptop to the TV.
Per ABC's website:
Premiere episode arrives online with expert commentary on Saturday, November 7.

Well, some are not as dead as you might think - the next episode teaser showed Alan Tudyk (Wash) character quite mobile even after being bashed in the face and stabbed trough the torso.
And you left out the mysterious Ex-husband of the FBI lady... something might come of that.
Way more in your face into the action on this go - I hope there will be some more development. As camp as it was, the conspiracy development of the 1st series was one of the cool aspects. Little bit of me is worried this will be 24 with aliens.

Speaking of Wash, anyone else notice that Anna is also Inara from Firefly? She looks much better with long hair.

Duh, of course I noticed... What self respecting Sci Fi nerd would not have... Now all we need is Adam Baldwin (Jayne) and Gina Torres (Zoe) to show up as part of the resistance...
I don't mind the short hair - you'd have to work pretty hard to make her unattractive.

Not to mention she was in SG1...
Kinda watched it. Unfortunately the wife and kids kept interrupting. I got the jest of it, but they seem to be in a hurry just in case they get cancelled.

All we need is for Mal to quit that gay-ass Castle show.
It actually took me a while to recognize her, I don't usually get a creepy vibe from her.
Hilu-

looks like they will post the episode on sat.
Morena Baccarin is her name
giggidy.

re-mal and castle...
that shows not that bad.
for the halloween epside he dressed up in firefly clothes and went as a Space Cowboy.
thats funny ;D
I read they were only airing 4 episodes of the season, and then cutting in for the Winter Games... and then bringing it back in March... I think that's the same recipe for disaster that killed off Jericho. I liked the first episode, I think they did roll out too many plot lines too fast. We will see how it develops from here.

Well, it's good you get a creepy vibe - you're supposed to... Yay acting!
The '83 series gave away the plot line for this one so I don't think that the premiere really gave much away. I really thought it was kinda slow. I'm waiting for the next couple episodes to see how it develops.
Did you know Morena Baccarin is Brazilian? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morena_Baccarin (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morena_Baccarin) I didn't until a couple days ago. And yes, there are naked pictures of her on the interwebs.
really?
brb
;D
>:(
I wonder in which episode will the lady give birth to the lizard...
Well as long as the 'normal' kid doesn't save the world by turning all sparkly...
That was pretty. The lizard kid gave me nightmares for weeks.

make the beast with two backsing gay vampires. There are few things in this world that ignite my ire like it.
I'm with you on the stupid pretty sparkly vampire thing - but I was still on V. In the original, there was a Hybrid V/Human kid. She saves the world by getting all sparkly-fied and stopping a bomb with her mojo
IT... WAS... PRETTY!!!! Damn you!! What do you have against the sparkly love child?!?!
Carlos... your new name is 'Bobby Sparkles'!
Onto the off topic train -
Saw an ad for the stupid new Twilight. There's Werewolves... I hope they eat the sparkly vampire and his wishy-washy chick
