I'm definitely going to watch it.

Not only does it look interesting, it also has The 4400 actors, writers and producers.

I expect it to die in the first season, though. They are only going to air four episodes, then the show will be put on hiatus until March after the 2010 Olympics. :smt076

There's quite a few actors i recognise from other sci fi based shows that i watch, 2 from firefly, tom baldwin from 4400, kara from smallville, the ex other juliet from lost. it ticks all the right boxes for me so i'm gonna give it a go. i also found this on wiki
"E! Online rated the pilot episode "on a scale of 1 to 10, we give it an 11. V is the best pilot we've seen in, well, forever." [9] The website Seat42F rated the pilot episode an A+, applauding its cast and effects and naming it one of the best pilots in years.[10] USA Today's Robert Bianco put V on his list of the top ten new shows, stating that the remake is well-made and "quickly establishes its own identity."[11] King Features' entertainment reporter Cindy Elavsky calls V: "the best new show on television, by far. The special effects are feature-film quality; the writing is intelligent and time-relevant; and the acting is first-rate. The first five minutes alone will hook you for the entire season."

Re: 'V'

I might watch it. But I wonder will the aliens eat the humans, enslave them or just steal their resources and split.

That's what I initially thought it might be.

Disappointing.

I will of course watch this remake with high hopes it can match the original series, but I hate the scheduling people so I'll probably wait for the DVD and watch them back to back one weekend
