Okay, I don't usually do this, but I figured that I would give my thoughts on the new V pilot.
Okay, I enjoyed the updated parts-aka, having terrorism involved. So far I like the two human leads. I also like that we have been introduced to the fifth column. So far that part, I think, is being handled a bit better than the original. I also like the fact that the visitors have been here working on this for a while. I think the new teen guy, I am really going to be horrible with character names for a while, will be really interesting to watch.
What I don't like so much- I'm sorry. The actress who plays Anna is really beautiful, but she has none of the charisma, draw and threat that Diana had. I also miss Willie a lot. Part of the charm of the show was him. Things are moving VERY fast and I'm not sure I like it very much. I don't know if I like the news guy as much as I did the girl in the original, but I'm reserving judgment on most of the characters for now. I also miss the political commentary. I also miss the whole scientists having to run and hide and being in trouble, though they might bring that up as things go. Once again the main creator isn't involved so I'm kind of worried about that.
Just my thoughts so far. I also missed the feel of the original, but I know that would change so I'm going to see where it goes.
