Not with a guaranteed built-in viewerbase, no.

Does it really matter? The original was made almost 30 years ago and alot of the people in this forum and ABC's current audience probably don't even remember it. I have no problem with a re-telling of this story.

Is this a re-imagining or just a modern update? I'd be surprised if the remake didn't address the original series' themes.

Even in 3rd grade I knew that the original Diana was HAWT.

Looking forwards to this for sure, I'm a huge V fan, have all the comics, all the books, the DVD's...

But this woman ain't no Jane Badler!

Rumor has it that they're getting Jane Badler for a cameo during the season.

Here's the new trailer--it looks pretty good!

I'll tune in and hope it's more Battlestar than Knight Rider. :)

I knew kenneth johnson released a second book entitled V second generation and was hoping they'd make an adaptation instead of remaking V.

I would much rather had a continuation as well but thats not Hollywood likes to do these day. They would rather reboot the property.

I'm glad they didn't since the book sucked.

Last I heard Kenneth Johnson was still trying to do a remake of the original and then adapt the sequel book to follow it up. Not sure how much luck he will have, but I would like to see him get his way.

Yep. I liked Faye Grant too, especially in the body suit scene.

Make it topical like the original series, count me in.

Make it like The Final Battle or the series, count me right the fuck out.
