Box set that I got from target.
The past month or so I have been seeing a lot of ads for the V series. I mean a lot of ads on varies web sites I go to. So many so I went looking to see if I could buy the V series and found a remastered dvd box set of the mid 1980′s V series. I thought this must be what they are advertising for as it was the only V series I could find. I added it to my watched list on ebay which I use as a wish list type thing, as I have watched items that ended a long time ago. Any way 2 weeks ago during my vacation I found the remastered dvd box set of the mid 1980′s version at Target so ended up getting it.
The past few days I have been watching the dvds in the box set I got and found the first few episodes a bit boring but did start getting into it after a while and found it very interesting to watch. I had talked about the V series with a few friends on varies sites and even facebook. Most people I talked to had not seen it or even the ads I had been seeing.
New V series on ABC.
Now here why I said confusion in the title. Yesterday (March 30th 2010) I saw a new ad for V this time it said returning to abc 10/9c so I quickly set an alarm on my phone so I would not forget to watch it as I had been thinking while watching the old version it would be awesome if they brought it back. I mentioned it to 2 of my friends on facebook. For some reason I said it different to both. One of my friends I said: They are making a new series of V and it starts tonight at 9. The other one I said are you going to be watching v tonight or some thing along those lines. The one that I asked if he was going to watch it was the only one that replied and said he was going to watch it tomorrow on hulu. Any way when the series came on it confused me by saying “Last time on V” I was like wait a minute this is supposed to be the return of V, Then I thought maybe it was one of them 2 day specials and I missed the first day. So I talked to my friend on facebook saying I had missed part of the return of V. He said it was on hulu so I brought hulu up and found 5 entries for V. I was utterly confused and talked to my friend again and he had mentioned they made the new series of V several months ago and made 4 episodes and then canceled it and tonight, which was yesterday being the day they brought back the new series. So to catch up I ended up watching the first 4 on hulu last night as I did not want to miss them specially that it was mentioned on hulu that they were going to remove them after March 30th. Kind of thinking in my head well gee they should have given me more time to catch up as I knew nothing about the remake until yesterday.
I did very much enjoy the new V series and found it much better then the original that I purchased at Target. There are a few differences. The main one being that the V’s do not have to wear sun glasses or goggles to protect their eyes from the bright light that I was told they do not like. Another difference is the head V in the original series is called Dianna and in the new she is called Anna. Another huge difference is in the original all V’s wear the red uniforms and in the new series they wear what humans were. A few things I do not know yet is do the V’s in this new series eat humans like they did in the original, it has not been brought up yet. It does look as if they will still have the star child though, which is a hybrid of a human and V. They also still have a resistance movement but done more realistic. Actually the whole series seems more realistic then the original.
