Happy Halloween: Here's an early look at ABC's 'V'
Longtime blog readers know I'm a stone sci-fi nerd. So when I heard ABC was remaking the classic 1983 alien invasion miniseries V, it was no surprise that I screamed like a little girl.
And the screams only got louder when I saw the actual show, which is really well done, with sharp special effects and enough new twists on the old format to surprise even us old heads.
I'll have a longer analysis running in Sunday's Feed column in the newspaper and I'll probably post an actual review in this space next week. But until then, enjoy nine minutes of sci-fi geek heaven, courtesy of ABC and Hulu.com.
