Although it moved a little too quickly for my tastes, I really enjoyed it, especially the back half of the episode. It has a solid direction, a unique yet not exxagerated feel, and a really talented cast. Tudyk was a very pleasant surprise, him being a V was a nice little shock, him being killed was totally predictable, and low and behold he will be back. Morenna Baccarin (Anna) and Elizabeth Mitchell (Erica) are two of the best female talents you can ever hope to find. On their own, they would make this show interesting and dynamic. Add all the other great talent and a writing staff who seem to know where they are going with everything - you have success at your fingertips! lolwhu? Well I know you hate Tudyk (and maybe Baccarin), but the fact that any main-cast member from Firefly/Serenity made not just Sci-Fi history but television history really can't be refuted. That fact alone makes those two "legendary"... not to mention the fact they are also just incredibly talented actors. rofl rofl rofl Joss Whedon is a hack who writes fanfic for teenage girls. And Firefly was canceled after what, 4 episodes? rofl rofl rofl ... 13 EPISODES! I'm not here to change anybody's opinion on Whedon, Firefly, Serenity, or anything else. I'm simply stating the fact that yes, a cancelled sci-fi series had such a strong following it was green-lit for a major motion picture, makes it a historic project and by proxy it's main cast members legendary. They are widely respected, admired, and automatically draw an audience. V has potential to be a very good series. And all I'm saying is casting people who are identified with some strong sci-fi sensabilities, who you know can draw and perform at a high level is smart. I'll give you admired and some are respected (I don't believe anybody likes Nathan Fillion for his acting though) but WIDELY? OR AUTOMATICALLY DRAWING A CROWD? The movie wasn't even successful! And I can only recall Jewel being the only person to join another show as a main that survived more than a year after joining (which was only recently changed when somebody sold their soul to get Castle renewed) Blueberry wrote: What happened to the Firefly movie? Someone give me a brief premise of that show, heard it was good. It sucked. I have issues with the word "legendary" being applied to Firefly. I just don't think it did enough to qualify and it's far too early to assign such a show. But before you ask, I am not sure I'd make Farscape legendary even though it's done the exact same thing that Firefly did and lasted three years longer, also got comics, and is supposedly getting webisodes. Legendary Sci Fi (YMMV): Patrick Stewart (TNG) Sigourney Weaver (Alien) Mira Firlan (Babylon 5)

Yeah yeah, we bitch about things being too slow and now we're bitching about it being too fast lol. I just wonder if they can keep up this pace. I mean, it seems like they almost went through the whole original miniseries in the first ep. THough I like the suggestion someone made that they want to get through the miniseries part of the story and get on to original stories. I really liked the Vs having been on Earth for awhile. I had a feeling Erica's partner was the mole.

Please I want to know :) What happened to the Firefly movie? Someone give me a brief premise of that show He was being facetious. It was a show that was a ratings flop, but the few fans it had were lunatics so a movie ended up getting made, which also basically flopped. Thank you so much<3 Did they have aliens as well? lol

I'm definitely in for the four November shows, and if it stays good I'll be in all season (assuming they actually make a whole season....). Favorite parts of V: <3 The boy being interviewed who was annoyed at his friend making an Independence Day reference because the movie was a rip-off of others (just loved the random intensity of it) <3 Finding out ASAP that blonde FBI guy was a bad alien. I figured as soon as they mentioned "mole" that it'd probably be him (didn't know he was an alien though), and if it was a show as bad as say Flash Forward, they'd drag the "suspense" out episode after episode when the whole time you already know who it is. So kudos to the writers for doing it right away and surprising me with the fastness of the reveal. OK embarrassing admission: Me and my friend (who both watch Lost) must've both been having brainfarts because when V started I'm all like "Oh my gosh, that woman looks so much like Penny!" And my friend's all like "Wow she really does! They could be sisters!" And I'm all like "They probably are they look so much alike!" And she's like "Yeah!" And I spend about the next few minutes just having this weird confused feeling like my gosh she looks so familiar and like her but it's obviously not her. Then all the sudden my friend goes "Wait a minute - that's the doctor from Lost!" We both paused for about 5 seconds looking at each other then just busted out laughing at what brainfarts we had just been having. In our defense we just had had FF on our minds because she still watches it and she was saying something about it right before the show started, and so I guess we just had Penny on our minds. But still. :p

I will enjoy all 13 episodes including the 5 unaired ones on the complete series DVD next summer. Off topic - In Firefly's defense, it's one of the top selling tv dvd of all time.

It was stated that the Visitors have been trying to destroy the Earth covertly by starting unnecessary wars, promoting religious extremism and causing economic destruction. Basically, they spent the last decade running the GOP. With their public face, they are trying to project a positive image. Things like hope and peace and universal health care. Appealing things, ya know. Summary: They are trying to destroy the Earth by being conservatives, while trying to win the affection of the public by acting like progressives.
