V The series 2009 Options

[Raycheetah]

Finally watched the second ep. I dun get all the bitching about the female lead's performance. I think it's fine. Mebbe folks are just too accustomed to over-the-top cop drama portrayals of FBI agents.

For all their hi-tech, you'd think the V's would have better quality video imaging. If they did, our heroes' geese would be cooked. Overall, I'm enjoying this. We'll see what we get tomorrow night.

By the way, I had to install a program to be able to watch ABC/Disney's V; initial use locked down Firefox, but a restart (after watching) seems to have cleared that up.

Back on track. Tonight's ep was TWISTY! Things are developing nicely, and booth the secrets and the questions are piling up. Intelligent writing would anticipate the audience's questions, and do its best to address them all, eventually, such as: Do the V's have the means to distinguish other Vs? How deeply have they infiltrated earth governments? What's it like to live in a human-suit, as a human, and to fall in love with a human? Is it an extension of their natural behaviors, or do they "go native" and adopt behaviors and values not natural to them? What do the Vs want (surely not water, and probably not even just to eat us), and do ALL Vs know what the objective is?

Next week's ep is the last one in 2009. Waiting for more will be teh suxor. ='[.]'=

I made that same comment when the show aired. In fact, I think my exact words were something like, "They master artificial gravity but not photography?"

I want to see lizard boob!

Just for you!









It's a start...lol

Yeah, but, even if she was "naked," she wouldn't be... naked, y'know?

How weird is that? =0[.]o=

Referring to my last post (mostly), given the relative fragility of their cloned human integuments, didn't the V's take an awful risk of exposure by setting up their advance agents in a real-world environment which could easily cause injury or death?

Think about a V who gets a job, oh, say, in law enforcement. Unless he's strictly a desk jockey, he stands a risk of getting shot at, which could result in an awkward situation when it comes time to treat his injury. More damning, what about the simple dumb luck of an automobile accident? Any EMT or emergency room doctor could tell you that there are plenty of accidental injuries that go far beyond "skin deep," and scales would definitely get a mention on your chart.

Ah, well, it's just a show, and if we picked apart everything we watched, it wouldn't be any fun... Except the picking apart bit. =^[.]^=

Which is probably why the FBI got reports from humans about the aliens and how they had lizard skin etc.

Clearly they did experience exposure but it sounded so wild to them that they ignored them just like people claiming they have been abducted or have seen aliens are ignored or thought crazy by us today.

I found the interaction/intervention scene with the wife of the dead pilot chilling. I absotively posilutely love "Anna".

This was a point I raised earlier about the infiltrator lizard types, if one of them was injured in a car crash and was unconsious when they were brought in they could have an MRI, CT scan or blood drawn all of which would show them to be non-human, so it would be medical professionals saying that there were lizards disguised as humans and the FBI would probably take more notice of them than, say, Mr Joe Sixpack or David Icke (who must think V is a blueprint for the future).

Which is why I've been saying from the begining they need to kill a V in a bloody fashion in front of the press.

Hell, the survivors of the raid at the warehouse had several specimens to choose from, had they kept their wits about them. But it would not serve the pacing of the unfolding plot for such a reveal to be made at this time. Anybody remember the "public reveal" in the original series? =^[.]^=
