New episodes start tonight after Lost. Does anybody else watch this show? I watched the first couple and really enjoyed it, I'm looking forward to the new season.

I think it is a really good show. Plus Elizabeth Mitchell is an absolute fox.

i like it but anymore i rarely follow shows on network tv.....first of all every time i start to watch a show it gets cancelled( terminator sarah conner chronicles or Surface come to mind) or they do four or five shows and then take a break for like half a year etc....id rather just watch movies or watch hbo/showtime type series.

I watch, I like. The blonde chick makes me like women even more than I already do.

They need a new song for that promo. It drives me crazy. I remember there for a while that song was on every single promo known to man. Especially towards the end of the college football season. ABC loves that song

You mean that new song by Muse? I liked it somewhat until it got overplayed.

Yup that new song from Muse. I have to admit, I didn't think it was that bad at first, but now I just completely hate it haha

I think this show is good but I'm not into it nearly as much as my brother seems to be. We were talking about how it sucks that Lost is in it's last season and he said it was ok though because V would be on. Ha Lost is on a whole different level than this show.

^^ Very true. I watch V and FlashForward as well, but they are just not as good.

There's only been 4 shows. Way too early to judge. This show has a lot of potential and nearly infinite directions to go, and that's just in terms of social commentaries on politics, race and religion.

Of course, it could fail miserably under the weight of all that potential. Network tv shows tend not to be particularly well written, so we'll see. My guess is it will end-up being a good, not great, show more just about intrigue and action then plot/character development. Probably a lot more like 24 than Lost.

Let's hope the writers don't fall prey to putting too much social commentary into their stories. When that happens, it invariably lessens the quality.

Give me an old fashioned, aliens are evil and invading our planet storyline. The have some kick ass heroes and heroines who once and for all prevail (with some exciting battles and fireworks in between).

I was a big fan of the original V, which looks a bit cheesy today given the technological advances. It was a lot of fun, though.

Really liked it and will be watching tonight.

I for one, don't really like LOST anymore. I LOVED it during the first few seasons, but it wore off on me.

Lost has declined so far this season with the exception of last week's episode but to me it's still the best show on tv. I'm thinking that V has potential. Lets hope they keep it around.

I would disagree. Every episode has been good this season minus What Kate Does. And Ab Aeterno is top 5 of all time imo.

I liked it but I hate this new trend of showing 5 or 6 episodes of a show in the fall and then waiting till spring to show the rest. I liked Flashforward back in the fall, but now...out of sight out of mind and I've quit watching it. Can't get into it again.

I've come this far with Lost, might as well see it through to the end. Hopefully V and Justified keep me interested

I really enjoyed the return episode of V.

Nice way to kick it back off.

I don't watch it, but if I did, she would be the reason why.
