Hey man I used to love the old "V", but my interest in it kinda "waned off" after it started turning into a melodramatic / psuedo-romantic soap opera in the second season. I was'nt sure if I were watching a sci fi flick, or just "The Young And The Restless" with humanoid reptilians and really good window dressing.

It's cheaper and quicker for the assembly line mentally of todays media moguls to re-hash the old rather than to develope the new. Used to be network and studio CEOs and yes men had some kind of exposure or background in entertainment , but nowadays - if you've kissed enough donkey, you can go from being an executive at Boeing Aircraft, GE, HONDA, or DOW CHEMICAL, to being a mover and shaker at TIME WARNER, PARAMOUNT, TRI-STAR, OR SONY PICTURES. The only qaulification that you need is knowing how to shave a budget and trim down the blue collars.
