One more reason to be excited for the return of ABC’s new V series.
Diana – the original commander from the original V series/miniseries is coming back!

Jane Badler told TV Guide that,'” .. this is an entirely different take on Diana — reimagined as the wicked mother of Anna (Morena Baccarin).”

Nice.

If you want to revisit the original Diana …enjoy the clip of Diana at her finest..

V remake not great, but not bad November 3, 2009

The ABC remake of V kicked off tonight.
No there is no Diana – instead the head of the Vistors is Anna (a Scifi veteran of both Stargate SG-1 and Firefly).

I don’t recall the Visitors in the original series being called the ‘V’s, I also specifically remember the graphitti tagging of V was done by the resistance.

V for victory.

That aside, the visitors are still Lizards, they’re still evil and I figure they’ll still eat human.

The FBI mom Erica is a great character and she puts a strong female face on the resistance. Overall pacing of the show was a little slow and jittery. It lacked a proper flow, the background ambient music was wrong and all the characters at this point are a little stiff.

Still, there is hope for this show, it’s got a bit of a twist on the original, enough to keep us interested. NO this is not a Battlestar Galactica class of re-imagining, but it’ll do for now.
