Seems the reonvention culture continues. I hope this is as good as BSG

Brilliant, I enjoyed the first series enormously back in the 80s, saw it a couple of years ago and although it was still good it looked dated. will be good to see a new version.  |

I'm hoping this series makes up for the utter shite that was BSG. Series 1/2 was excellent. Then 3/4 turned into a turgid soap opera where every character was a hateful tosser, the plot was incomprehesible and the best the finale could come up with was 'God did it!'Which is lazy writing at its worst especially in Sci-fi. This ruined my enjoyment of seasons 1/2 so much i sold the box sets and im damned if i will watch re runs.
I will watch V but the second it turns into a BSG clone (which i expect, seeing people hold BSG (fecked knows why) in such high regard) i will be switching right off.

Look i know other people like BSG, but i didn't, I'm not saying i'm right or others are wrong, its all down to personal preference.
If V uses the BSG model of series making I wont be watching. I know many others will and i hope they enjoy it.
I'm not alone in this line of thought, Sci-Fi forums after the finale pratically was in civil war. The series split the forum right down the middle.
It depends on point of view but i hope V isnt over plotted and the characters unsympathetic.

Good lets keep it that way I like BSG you don't, no argument I am concerned this version of V is trying to be too conspiratorial. Too much David Ike for my liking, but we'll see |

Too much David Ike for my liking, but we'll see That,s the way the series 4400 went and the way a lot of these Sci/Fi shows go, they start of with a good idea, suddenly realize they have got a golden goose on their hands and try pushing it one series too far and end up alienating (no pun intended) their fans. |

Well I some how get the impression that the next batch of sci-fi will suggest that we are not to blame for our own problems... religious overtones anyone?

I loved the original V (the first series was by far the best - they started to slide from there) and I must admit this remake looks pretty good - it's got the budget that the original didn't have which is a start. Plot and acting look pretty good based on the trailer too. Fingers crossed.
