V and Flash Forward were the two new big comers in the sci fi series department this season. After watching the first 8 minutes of V I can say I understand why they gave it that title. The show is gonna drop off after 5 episodes which is natural cause you can't keep the mystery going forever but it does look like a well written show so I'm gonna watch for sure. Thanks for posting this.

^ I loved what I saw as well on the first episode tlo but I really hope this one doesn't fall off big time later on like other sci-fi series have done so in the past where for the first few episodes that we didn't know a whole lot they seemed like the sh1t and then after it started explaining things a bit we were like "what kind of far fetched thing is this?".

And that's the problem with network tv shows in the past 10 years. Before I get to my diatribe I'll start off by saying the first episode of V was alright. Looks entertaining enough, but I think it will lose steam as the year goes on. But here's the problem with ABC, Fox, NBC, and network TV. There is a lack of commitment to developing new enticing shows, and the concentration is on repackaging old successful shows and giving them a new twist. ABC hit a gem with LOST, so what do they do after a year of low ratings? They go on a sci-fi binge to try and recreate the magic of LOST. First Flashforward, now V. Look, I get it, both shows are alright. But nothing groundbreaking. It's just producers who like money, so they make shows that they think people will like by seeing what worked the last 5 years. It doesn't hurt that ABC recasts actors from LOST into both new shows either.

I want NEW shows, with new development, with new stories. I don't want repackaged regurgitated TV shows. Do they think the audience is blind? We can tell when a show's concept has been made before. But creating a new concept and thinking outside the box risks too much money, so they hardly ever do it. Most of the audience accepts the garbage TV shows on air, and it's a vicious cycle that spins out of control that spawns worse and worse programming.

And like I said earlier, I like flashforward, V looked good. But just because I like those shows, it doesn't mean they are what I want. I want new edgy programming damnit. If I want LOST, then I'll watch LOST. GIVE ME NEW PROGRAMMING!

Thank you, I now step down from my soapbox.
