OT: V The TV Series
 

I just got down watching the 84 series V, the TV series, not the mini-series. Man what a JOKE. It is shows like this that give Sci-Fi a bad name. Not just for the SFX, but everything from the acting to the horrible George Lucas style dialog. Talk about campy. I have seen some bad writing made into bad TV, but this series just takes the cake. I shudder to even recall how bad this show sucks.

ok I get you mean the 84 tv series and by mini series you mean the 80s mini series, right? Did you know they have been filming a new V mini series?

ya read about it a few weeks ago.

I have always wondered where Lucas learned how to write such bad dialog. This series takes the all time award for really bad dialog.

I've never heard of this V. Is it at all related to V the movies, or is that a whole other bag of kittens?

We are talking about the tv series where Alien Lizards come to earth disguised as human aliens (At least Star Trek would stick something on their nose) ostensibly for peace but really to steal our water and eat people.

Jane Badler had a lot of style, charm and acting ability. There were a few other good actors. But the camp just got laid on real heavily as the mini-series became a TV show, and bad acting seems to be the norm, whenever a TV show becomes a night-time soap opera. Remember when the original Battlestar Galactica series actually found Earth? Me either.

Ahhh! Evil Reptillian Nazis from Outer Space! V is a member of a select club of bad scifi that keeps popping up like Zombie Jesus.

For some reason WW2 never ended for hollywood.

Man, this topic brings back memories. The two miniseries were definitely better than the TV series, or perhaps I should say, less bad. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...s/rolleyes.gif I remember liking Jane Badler and her deliciously evil character. I also recall that a human/alien hybrid child played a crucial role in the story...hmmm, now where have I seen that lately? Hmmm. Dang, it's on the tip of my tongue... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif
