I would have canceled this crap show by now if I was ABC. Tried watching it again last night (since nothing new was on), and promptly fell asleep. Bad acting, no plot still (seriously, the only thing I got was that the V want to breed with humans, which is still stupid), and pacing that would make a snail look like an Indy 500 race car.

Seriously, this is a disgrace to genre shows. I wouldn't even call it genre.

 Apparently Kurt and I watched a very different show. Granted, it's quite undestandable if you haven't seen the show in quite a while. I really enjoyed it and agree wholeheartedly with the review. It's so frakking hilarious when people whine and throw a tantrum about how much they hate it. Gotta wonder, why do you watch it? Oh wait! "Nothing new was on"! Lamest excuse in the book. Of all th entertainment possibilities available in the world you actually choose to watch what is by your own admision a piece of junk. Geez! You need a better way to spend your time. It's quite simple: if you don't like it, why would you watch it? So you can grandstand on an internet page? Pathetic! Bitch about it to someone who actually cares.

dude above: I understand your frustrations, but these comments are for people to share their opinions, good and bad.  I personally watch this show because I want it to be good and I want it to get better and I really like most of the actors but the sad truth is.......it's written in a way that makes a lot of scenes akward and emabarassing, it's not poorly acted at all, it's just hard for some of the great actors to deliver thier lines with honesty and it shows.  The story and direction feel like it's being re-written after every episode and it's hard to see the sense in where they are going with it, BUT I want to see an ending to the whole thing so I hope it gets at least  a shortened third season to wrap it all up or perhaps a mini series or tv movie. 

It probably should've been cancelled a long time ago but I'll keep watching AND posting what I think about it for as long as it is on the air.  In all fairness, its gonna be hard for any show to receive an update and be both relevant and quality for most of us fans after the amazing re-think on Battlestar Galactica!!!  Perspective changes everything!

 Guateke, since you're such a superior fount of knowledge, tell me, oh wise one, why did the V travel across the galaxy to invade Earth? Since this is the whole point of the show. The conflict between the humans and the visitors. And don't tell me it's to breed with humans, because that isn't a plausible explanation. 

With much better representations of genre shows being canceled (SGU comes to mind) this season, there's not a lot to go around. So occasionally I'll lower myself to watching something that pretends to be genre, like V, to kill an hour and to see if it has actually improved beyond the last episode I saw (four episodes back). 

I get it that you like crappy, genre-poseur shows (like V), and I myself have fallen into that gulch before (The Cape) realizing that what I was watching and supporting was crap.  

Finally, you're an adult (I'll assume), try using the word 'fuck' instead of 'frak'. We all know what you mean, it just makes you look like a slavish fanboi when you use a word that's now outdated by a few years. It's almost as bad as using 'shiny' in context with a conversation you're having with other adults. 

 @DaForce1 - I agree with you.  But "fanboi" marks you as a bit pretentious too.  But then again, who amongst us isn't.  ;)

Daforce there trying to use other species DNA to mix with theres so that they can cause there species to evolve at a faster rate.

Daforce, lizards breeding with humans is as plausible as getting stuck inside a still functioning million-year-old spaceship who happens to be galaxies away through an artificial stable wormhole. Maybe that's why it's called science fiction. None of it is real, or even plausible. Oh, and I don't see the problem in my choosing not to use swear words. After all, in a democracy, people can choose to express themselves as they see fit. :)

I hope this show doesn't get the axe.  Season 2 was much better than 1 however may be too little too late.
