well it's back, 're-imagined' on the SciFi channel coming soon. Couple of peeps from "Firefly" in it.
If it's anywhere near as good as the "re-imagined" Battlestar Galactica then it should be worth watching
Remember it?!? I watched it at a friend's house, saw the alien rip his skin off to reveal his real face, then had to ride home in the dark. If I could reach speeds like those now, I would be laughing.
Dammit. You've mentioned Firefly. I'll have to watch a few episodes before bedtime now.
V was great, I think the original had 'Freddy' (Robert Englund) in it. Great 80's american cheese!!
IIRC they ate rats.
Got to wait till early 2010
If you liked the remake of Galatica you may be interested Caprica

is tri-pods coming back too?
.
It was on at the same time as the olympics. I recall people saying (in a german accent) "V have ways of making you miss the olympics".
I loved it but i was quite young but i remember them eating mice and pulling their faces off etc. It was great. ๐
V was amazing and scary has hell when i was young
i had nightmares for years after! the bit where she gave birth to a normal looking child but then when she held it , it had a lizard tongue!!
aaaaarrrrgh!!!!!!

Pariah were my best mates band from the 6th form at Beckfoot Grammar School, Bingley. Also, SDC did a gig there in their early days. I'm sure your old band feature there somewhere?.
I played there at least twice with SDA 86-90 and once with The Rejuvenation 84ish.
They are also remaking the film Red Dawn.

When's Chocky coming back? And Zigzag (on bbc2 at 3 in the morning). They were proper sci-fi shows.

done my research now. I played at the 1in12 4 times in the 80s:
16/10/84 Mass Of Black / The Rejuvenation
07/08/86 Beat Of The Beast / The Jackals*
12/07/88 Heart Of Darkness / Seven Dead Americans
25/10/88 Seven Dead Americans / Death By Milkfloat
* I'd forgotten about that one - The Jackals didn't last long

YOU SICK, SICK, SICK MAN!!!
Chocky scared the living sh*t out of me!

- some scary sh1t right there[/url]
Remember being horrified watching a woman swallowing a rat whole - throat bulging etc. Imagination ran riot for a few weeks that summer...
V was superb sci fi. the 80's was a great era for sci fi. The remake will be awful. some things are just best left alone
