'V'
got it's start as an extremely
successful miniseries in 1983, based on what if aliens came to earth as
great politicians pretending to want what was best for earth and all
humankind. These aliens turn out to be similar to Nazis promising
peace but delivering destruction. It was followed in 1984 by a second ratings smash,
"V:
The Final Battle", and the powers that be made the inevitable decision to proceed
with a weekly series based on the premise of an Open City, where the
freedom fighters would continue their fight against the Visitors.
The series was a little bit of a let down. V was too expensive a
production to be a weekly series, so stock footage was used from the mini
series, and it's stories were just no where near as exciting. The series was
cancelled after only 19 episodes.
