I think so, but I haven't decided it it will be Visitor Lisa having the baby or Valerie, Ryan's fiancee. (Not like it's my decision, I just haven't decided where I'm placing my bets yet)

I am not having any problems but my comcast does that sometimes.

I don't know how I missed this. It was right above my post.

I'm at school, so it's probably someone here using one of the machines that's effecting it.

Well, looks like hulu is gonna be best friend for this episode and the last one.

TOnights was good..BF is not happy there is only one episode left this year :(

I thought last night's episode was great. Typical, just when I'm really starting to like a show, it goes on hiatus!! After next week, when will the new season start in 2010?

BIG ol BUMP...season 2 finale was tonight...does anyone still watch? Ill be sad if season 3 doesnt happen, I already lost FlashForward...ABC is just effing me over if they dump V...

Senusret I 03-16-2011 08:38 AM

I watch it. I hated the episode.

The writing was very sloppy and all over the place. Here are my specific complaints:

1. I hate that they revived the "star child" story.

2. Ryan's death was stupid.

3. Bliss is stupid.

4. Tyler's death was good, but I wanted him to KNOW his mom was right all along. I wanted to see the horror in his eyes.

5. Diana's death was disrespectful.

6. Anna needs more motivation for her evil. I am not sure the actress is doing that great a job.

7. Project Ares is STOOOOOPID.

My and my frat brothers who watch this were in concurrence. We hope it doesn't come back.

I loved the first season, but this season lost me. I've only watched part of this season.

Ryans death made me mad. The little girl actress was horrible too. I loved Diana, but I thought her deat hwas fitting, I liked Anna's quip "Now that's how you kill your mother."
I'd be cool if it didn't come back.

yea that little girl SUCKED. I was surprised at all the deaths, especially Tylers,but really he hadnt listened to his mom the whole show so he got what was comin to him.. poor Lisa had to watch :( I just feel like the finale was so monumental I need more lol.

cheerfulgreek 03-16-2011 11:06 AM

I stopped watching I think after the 2nd or 3rd episode of the 1st season. It just wasn't very good, to me.

I just wanted to tell Senusret that I don't watch "V" but have the utmost respect for it due to Michael Wright's (Eddie Kane, Jr.) roles in the 1983 and 1984 originals; and Morris Chestnutt in the new version.

That is all. :)

I actually liked the finale.

It was interesting to see Erica, Lisa, et al pull defeat so thoroughly from the jaws of victory.

I'm glad Tyler finally got what was coming to him (pun intended). Shoulda listened to your mom, kiddo.

Lisa is deeply stupid. She had a golden opportunity to kill Anna, allowing Diana to re-assume her position as queen, and she threw it all away. That really annoyed me. It's not rocket science - given a perfect opportunity to kill the bad guy, you kill the bad guy. It was kinda sad, though, that she had to watch her replacement mate with, and then kill, Tyler.

There really was no reason to have Amy kill Ryan, though. I guess that was put in there to underscore the hold Anna has on her (and to ensure that yet another fifth column member is out of the picture), but was it really necessary? Right after that, Amy blissed an entire planet's worth of humans. Something tells me she wouldn't have done that if she weren't loyal to Anna.

I hope it comes back for another season. I want to see how Erica gets humanity out of being totally, thoroughly, completely fucked.

Me too! ...because things actually happened. It was so slow this season that I started rooting for the aliens, since I think they're the only interesting part of the show.

Actually, I didn't know it was the finale. I was just thinking, "Wow, a lot of shit went down!" and I looked online, and it was the end. Blargh. They had better renew it because I do want to see how things play out.

I know it's not that great of a show, but I love anything sci-fi that has to do with aliens so I'm holding on. Also, I remember reading somewhere that the concept is based on the first few chapters of my all-time favorite book, Childhood's End by Arthur C. Clarke. If you enjoy the show at all I HIGHLY recommend that book. Similar concept, but much, much better. And everything that goes down on the show is compressed into like 30 pages - the real story is what happens over the next couple hundred years after the aliens arrive.

Really? I didn't know that. I have read that book, but it was years ago. IIRC, though, the Overlords weren't out to screw over humanity, whereas the Visitors (at least Anna and those loyal to her) definitely are.
