I would tune in to a new "V" movie!
Quote:
Twenty years after NBC's hit sci-fi miniseries "V" invaded the small screen, the network is bringing the aliens back with "V: The Second Generation," a three-hour TV movie from the original creator Kenneth Johnson.
Johnson, who wrote, directed and produced the original miniseries, is set to write, direct and executive produce the sequel, which has been given a script commitment. |
Here's the full story:

This could be great with Kenneth Johnson at the helm. His commentary for V - The original miniseries is one of my favourites. 3 hours is too short though, I want more.......

Let's just hope they do a movie or mini-series that wraps things up and be done with it. If they try to milk it for another series, NBC will just cancel it again.

According to a Robert Englund interview on Ain't It Cool News, Johnson has been talking with him, Marc Singer, and Faye Grant about returning, and according to www.chud.com
today....
Now it's official. NBC has given a script commitment to V: The Second Generation, a three hour TV movie. Twenty years after the Visitors invaded Earth the human resistance continues, with a strange and powerful new ally. Could it be the alien race our heroes tried to contact at the end of the first miniseries?
Englund didn't mention if Johnson had contacted that chick who played his girlfriend, though if she's unavailable, he could just hire Dee Snider, as they looked scarily alike.

Great news and if they get the original cast back, even better.
I am glad that Johnson is involved. The whole reason why the horrible TV show failed is because he wasnt invloved.
I bet this will be better than Battlestar Galactica because it is not redoing everything with a New cast.

Faye Grant... she was yummy. Bring it!
Whenever the laws of any state are broken, a duly authorized organization swings into action. It may be the called the State Police, State Troopers, Militia, the Rangers, or the Highway Patrol THE CITIZENS AUXILIARY POLICE!!! These are the stories of the men whose training, skill, and courage, have enforced and preserved our state laws.
