watch it: the first 8 minutes of ‘V’

Tue, Oct 27, 2009

Okay, I know it’s gonna be stupid, and I know ABC is gonna jerk us around by airing the first four episodes and then pulling the show till next year, but I can’t help it — I’m psyched.

Spectacular in some ways, but that is so not New York City. Hmm, could it be, I dunno, Los Angeles standing in?

Didja notice the “Oceanic Plaza” sign? There been at least one billboard for Oceanic Airlines — from ABC’s Lost, of course — in Flashforward, too…

(V gets the reboot on ABC on Tuesday, November 3.)

share and enjoy

Fun quote:
Dude 1: “Dude this is SO like Independence Day!”
Dude 2: “Which was, like, a ripoff of other alien invasion stories that came before!” (none-too-subtle dig at both the ID4 and the previous V miniseries which took the city-sized UFOs from Clarke’s Childhood’s End)
