The most surprising twist in V this season?

[Orrex]

[Dr. Strange]

1. That the show is still on the air while FlashForward was canceled.

2. Is it bad?

The DVD(season 1)is being released this month and I thought I'd give it a peek for a little Firefly fix.

3. It's not great

Yet, I watched every episode :) I almost never watch network TV so I don't know if the writing/acting on 'V' is worse than usual or the standard fare. I'm guessing the latter. But the season finale did have some interesting moments. Not sure why I did watch it -- a couple times I realized I should quit but for some reason didn't. I guess it's a bit refreshing to see a show about something a little different (albeit recycled) than your standard cops/lawyers/'look how quirky my family is' stuff.

4. It's not good. Watch the original. n/t

13. I agree with the consensus.

It wasn't terrible, but FlashForward was much better.

9. What's really the worst thing about Flash Forward being cancelled

..is that the crappy show they replaced it with (some crap about what a bunch of idiots are doing 10 years after high school graduation) was so lame, they yanked it after just two episodes and replaced it with Grey's Anatomy reruns.

Maybe they will have to bring the lizards back sooner to fill the void? :boring:

5. Other: Really lousy final scene(s) at the end of the first season.

I loved the show up until the last 5 minutes of the first season, when everyone's loyalties seemed to change and degenerate.

Hopefully it can be redeemed next season. The new series will never be as good as the original, but I'm anticipating Diana's return with mixed emotions. I love the character, but I hope they do right by her. Anna will always be a second-rate wannabe when compared to Diana.

6. The original is only "good" if you saw it decades ago and haven't seen it since then!

It has aged very poorly IMO.

8. I respectfully disagree. n/t

[Orrex]

10. I don't like your tone, buddy.

Them's fightin' words if I ever heard 'em!!!!!!1!


Marc Singer will always and only be The Beast Master.

And maybe the blind guy in If You Could See What I Hear. But that's it.

7. I really, really wanted to like this series, but don't. I did give it a good try though. n/t

[pinniped]

11. They shouldn't have stopped it a few episodes into the start of the series.

That was lame. I never got around to catching it again.

12. Other: the underwater welding scene
