Did V's Finale Preserve the Series? 2011/5/12 22:20:28

ABC's V has often been struggling actually given that its initial episode. A product of remake-content executives, V instantly jogged our recollections again to a time when Marc Singer ran around in cheesy sci-fi uniforms blasting lizards with his ray gun. But let's be truthful here: The remake never ever lived up to our unfair expectations, failing to consider advantage of a solid cast and substantial-tech effects. To save the series, they do take measures tihis time.


There was blood! There was sex! There was child lizards! There was an "anything goes" mindset as producers killed off major characters, and I am certain the actors did not thoughts. Hell, I would not be stunned if actors had lined up exterior producers' doorways and consult for their characters to be killed. It would make obtaining their up coming work that a lot easier, due to the fact they wouldn't have to wait for ABC to officially cancel the demonstrate and release their contracts.

And nevertheless, with this wham-bam-thank-you-ma'am finale that served as a last hurrah, there's a sense that we currently skip it. "Mother's Day" gave us a style of what the demonstrate could be: silly gentleman vs. alien war with senseless violence and gratuitous gore which is manufactured on the exact same Commodore 64 that generates the specific results in Syfy's creature attributes. There was also a cliffhanger ending, but it was not as shock-worthy as it could have been, i.e. no a single was in the method of dying and no a single was about to unleash a massive weapon on Earth.

Is it possible that the finale truly breathed new life into the series and that we must all be disappointed that it will not be back again? (Seriously, it will not be back again. By no means.) Or ought to we allow V blast off into the deep space of cancellation on a higher notice? If V did occur again for a 3rd season, I do not feel it could maintain up the insanity of final night's finale. As an alternative, we would possibly just get far more of the identical muddled mess till it was about to be canceled again. So I am declaring goodbye, V, and thanks for ending your operate with the craziness we always want to see.
