Review of V

V (2009–2011)
1/10
This makes my head hurt
7 November 2009
Can Hollywood put anything more lame on TV? Have the writers forgotten the art of storytelling and character development? What did the writers think, we'll have a religious priest, an FBI agent, etc etc. The writer's tried to have stereo typical ingredients to make the show good but this was extremely commercial.

With what was shown in the pilot episode, too much was crammed in and now are the episodes going to fall flat after too much was revealed. Here's a hint, story arcs for having a full season and not revealing all at once.

When I saw the commercials for V with the main V character, it looks like a Shoppers Drugmart commercial. The inside of the mother ship looked like a shopping mall and part of it looked like Sydney, Austrailia. When some of the characters were transported and before they were strapped in, that looks like something that would be used at a ride at an amusement park. When the characters were in the mother ship and excited over the floating apples, maybe the director and writers should have had something exciting. With science fiction, something impressive should have been done.

Here's a hint for the people who made V, the audience is intelligent, don't insult the viewer's intelligence. Instead of relying on the name V, more should have been put in to make the show a success, not just the name V and special effects.
