You know the show is good when the promos are deep and thought-provoking.

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!

I haven't been able to get my V write-ups for 1x03 and 1x04 posted yet, but will be working on them while at the beach this weekend and hopefully, they will be posted on Sunday night.

November 25th, 2009

sorta.

Write-ups for V 1x03 and 1x04 are coming.

V Episode 4 Sneak Peek

V/CastPoster

One of the things I'm really loving about V is that it's...FUN. It's just plain FUN Television. Characters are great. The story is picking up momentum. There's action and explosions.

It's fist-pumping TV and I'm super excited about next week!

Q. You’re not ever going to put Jack and Liz together romantically, are you?
A. No. … When you step back and look at the characters, I don’t think that’s what either of them is looking for. They’ll both find somebody eventually. He’ll give her away at her wedding.

Um, dude, I HAVE stepped back and looked at the characters (in fact, I stepped back and wrote a 3-part essay) and YOUR SHOW tells me otherwise.

All do respect, your answer makes no dadgum sense, Mr. Carlock, because about 98% of the time (it's a made up percentage, but basically, it means "almost all of the time"), they date people who are STAND-INS for each other.

Lost will be airing on Tuesdays at 9/8c on ABC.

It would be DUMB NOT to pair V and Lost. DUMB, I tell you. SO MUCH crossover in the audience (a lot of Lost fans are watching V because of Elizabeth Mitchell and because it's another SciFi story) for the two shows. Most Lost fans I know are watching V and would LOVE if it they were paired up in the same night.

But, the only request? That it be V THEN Lost. Lost HAS to be second in that lineup because well...Lost has the tendency to break your brain and you can't focus on anything else after it. :)

Is it just me or does Erica look like Julie with that skullcap on? :)

LOOKS AWESOME.

More thoughts to come later in the week :)

My letter from Erica Evans.

New pic from 1x03? )
Can anybody think of a time when Liz was sitting with Jack like this in his office?



I feel like it's happened, but I'm too lazy to go looking and was hoping someone could help me out.

Thanks :)

Jimmy's like "You lied to me!" and Elizabeth's like, "I"m a really bad liar!" :)

Also, did she just confirm that we would see Juliet IN THE PRESENT in Lost Season 6?  Because that's...interesting...

They came, they saw, they conquered primetime.  

ABC's "V" premiere was Tuesday's highest-rated program in the adult demo, cracking usual leader CBS' drama-series choke-hold on the evening. 

"V" was seen by 13.9 million viewers and had a 5.0 preliminary rating among adults 18-49.

That's the biggest scripted series premiere rating for a freshman show this fall.

"V" bested tough competition from "NCIS" (19.4 million, 4.2), which nonetheless ranked as the evening's most-watched show. The alien invasion drama gained 4% from its first half hour to its second.

The 8 p.m. "V" surge put ABC just a tenth of a point behind CBS for the nightly win. Compared to "Shark Tank" in the time period, "V" was up 213%.

Critics were a bit all over the map on "V", ranging from a rave in USA Today to NY Times calling it slapdash and formulaic.

Never underestimate the public's love for Elizabeth Mitchell and a cheesy, but loveable miniseries from the early 1980s.

Well done, America.

V came in 2nd to NCIS last night, according to Ausiello.

No official numbers yet, but that is HUGE.  V was put in a very tough timeslot, going up against the #1 show in the country and to have it open so strongly?  Good to see.

I thought V might have done well last night since "Watching V" was trending on Twitter :)

It's been my opinion that NCIS does so well because it hadn't had any competition except for a few reality shows and 90210.  Of COURSE that show would do well against that programming.

Hope V can keep it up.  People seem positive about it so far. 

TAKE THAT, NCIS.

November 3rd, 2009

OMG, Y'ALL, V WAS SO FREAKING FUN AND I WANT IT TO BE NEXT TUESDAY LIKE, NOW.

And, the Pilot did not help on my quest to STOP shipping Erica/Jack.  In fact, it egged me on.  DANG YOU, SHOW.  :)

But, seriously, GOOD STUFF, PEOPLE.

And, "Watching V" trended on Twitter, so I hope that's good news in terms of viewership.
Bwah!

Cracks me up that some people in the media are predicting failure for the new V, based on the fact that we get four episodes and then, have to wait until March for the rest.

Um...have they ever met any Lost fans?  We wait EIGHT FREAKING LONG MONTHS (that's 3/4 of a YEAR, y'all) for new episodes and we've done that, for about 3 years.

I DON'T THINK IT'S GONNA BE A PROBLEM IF THE SHOW IS THAT GOOD.

4 MONTHS IS NOTHING.

If V doesn't want me to ship Erica/Jack, they are doing a terrible, terrible job.  :)

Behind cut so people don't get mad at me. )
Jack bought an Arby's franchise when he was married to Bianca and when they divorced, it was a big issue over who would get to keep it.

Jack and Liz go to Stone Mountain and she's excited (until she later gets sick) about Fatty Fat's Sandwich Ranch, of which, Jack buys a franchise.

Hmm.

Oh, man.

This post is made of win even if Juliet is well...whatever.  I DO like the comparisons because I think they're the two strongest and most awesome love stories in Lost.

I can already tell that Erica Evans is going to be my new favorite TV heroine!  And, are Jack and Erica flirting?  I'd like to think so...:)
Article on V from the Orlando Sentinel.

Gretsch and Mitchell, who make a fine team...  STOP MAKING ME SHIP THEM IF IT'S NEVER GOING TO HAPPEN.  SERIOUSLY. 

I like this:

The surprisingly timely "V" plays off concerns about universal health care, terrorism, sleeper cells and journalists' access to leaders. But the series is, above all, a first-rate thriller filled with twists, shocks and heroic figures.



As slLOST pointed out, all the characters in the promo were the ones touched by Jacob.  Don't know if that's intentional, but definitely could be, seeing as since they aren't showing new footage, I would think they would be careful about what they show to promote the new season.
Michael Giacchino REMIX.  SO Awesome.

I think this list is kinda lame, myself.

David Schwimmer is on THE WORST, while Salma Hayek is on THE BEST?  SERIOUSLY? 

I watch "Greenzo" all the time.  It's probably one of my FAVORITE episodes of the series.

I was ready for Elisa to go after her first episode.  She really overstayed her welcome.  We got it.  Elisa was a Liz stand-in.  Didn't need to stay THAT LONG to prove that point, thank you very much.

Having said that, I do enjoy "The Ones" :)

Still...where the frig is Isabella Rossellini?  I'd have to say, she's probably my favorite one of them all. 

I love TWoP and all, but that list is full of FAIL.
Former 'Lost' actress Elizabeth Mitchell 'cried for a couple of days' after being written off show.

Wouldn't you have loved to have been at the house with all of them drinking, though?  I bet that was some funny mess.

Pretty much sums up Lost.

The thing that Stephen King started doing in the later Dark Tower books was, he started weaving in, you know, Salem's Lot and um, Insomnia, so it was one of those things that really rewarded you for being a fanThe more that you knew about the author's work, the more you got out of it.

I don't want to hear people complaining anymore about the Blu-Ray version of the Season 5 DVD set having the Lost University stuff, when the standard def Dharma Kit is JUST AS COOL. 

I might buy them both.  No JOKE.

This is freaking AWESOME given Season 5's time in Dharmaville.

Josh is so cute and I love Elizabeth in the background, just laughing at the boys :)






 
Interesting information regarding the Dharma logo.  Eloise (who doesn't have a birth certificate?), Daniel, and Olivia Goodspeed mentions!

ETA:

At least, I don't remember having seen this still before.  Maybe I did and just forgot?  

Anyway, it's awesome.  Love Kate's bell-bottoms!

My brother just called me to tell me that a friend of his is going to be on this week's 30 Rock (she has short blonde hair and is standing behind Tina at some point).

I forget her name, but she was also an extra for "Ludachristmas" (ice-skating) and has been on General Hospital (I think).

I'll be looking out for her this week.

I'm also two degrees separation to Alec Baldwin, via Robert Osborne (who co-hosts The Essentials with Alec on TCM)...sorta.  I stood near him during a fire drill a few years ago.  :)
I'm so looking forward to seeing Elizabeth Mitchell in fight scenes because she had some great ones on Lost!  I'm pumped to see new shots of the Visitors.  And, I like the use of the red V in the words they're using for these things.  Very smart and it looks GREAT.

"They're here...it's starting."  EEE!  SO PUMPED!


For all things V, check out VisitorSite!

October 25th, 2009

I like the use of the music and the focus on the Visitors in this one.

SPOILER ALERT:

If you've never seen V, there are some HUGE spoilers in this video.
