I'm actually pretty excited by this.  Before it airs we will have to have a "V" marathon to compare!

Can do!

Both mini-series and the TV series, right?

Actually pretty short, compared to our other marathons.  Eight hours for the movies, and 19 horrific hours for the TV series.

And I do mean horrific.

“Party of Five” icon Scott Wolf will play the opportunistic newscaster in ABC’s pilot for “V,” based on the 1983 Nazi space-lizard sci-fi miniseries.

Wolf’s similarly mammal-monikered “Party” brother, Matthew Fox, stars on ABC’s long-running sci-fi series “Lost.”

Holy shit!  Morena Baccarin cast for "a lead role" in V.

She'd be a great Diana...

Yep, she's Diana.  (Or "Anna" in the remake).  Nice.

So she can basically just play the same evil role she's been playing in Stargate.

Quote
[ANNA] 40 years old, Anna is the leader of the Visitors, and she's not only humanoid, she has flawless looks and a gorgeous figure. A woman who presents herself as a benevolent deity, with a soft-spoken tone of voice that is warm and soothing (but with a strangely harmonic tone), Anna is the front person for the aliens, and she's remarkably knowledgeable -- about human culture, human languages, and media manipulation. Expert at wrapping pundits around her little finger, she decides that newscaster Chad Decker is the perfect careerist to carry her message of peace and prosperity to a wider world…

Official announcement tomorrow, but reports today say that V is going to be a 13 episode series with the possibility of a full season and not a mini-series/movie.

AICN had an early review posted last week in which it sounded rather "meh."

Supposedly there are clips here:

But that site makes Firefox angry and confuses APA's content blocker.
