Really enjoyed watching this series and to see that the creative license hasn't taken it too far away from the original series. Excellent story line, with equally good special effects. Looking forward to the next season!!

In about 99% of science fiction, aliens come to earth in two ways: charging in to invade, or they come in peace… So they can invade quietly. The second kind are the main problem in “V: The Complete First Season,” a remake of the 1980s series/miniseries about mysterious alien Visitors who come to Earth with some nasty ulterior motives. While this remake suffers from some “Lost syndrome,” it's a sleek, complex story with an intriguing cast of characters.

City-sized alien ships have appeared over twenty-nine cities worldwide, and the aliens' leader “Anna” (Morena Baccarin) declares that, “We are of peace.” The Visitors offer their advanced technology to better the world, and cause massive changes – social, religious, medical, and so on.

While hunting a terrorist cell FBI agent Erica Evans (Elizabeth Mitchell) stumbles across an anti-Visitor resistance – and the shocking discovery that not only are the visitors reptilian creatures in humanoid skins, but some Visitors are hiding among us. She and the skeptical priest Father Jack (Joel Gretsch) begin forming their own little resistance cell, along with the V-in-hiding Ryan Nicholas (Morris Chestnut) who is trying to reactivate an alien rebellion known as the Fifth Column. At the same time, news anchor Chad Decker (Scott Wolf) finds himself the media ambassador of the V's, caught between ambition and his growing doubts.

But the resistance has more than Anna's cruel, duplicitous nature to deal with – Erica's gullible son Tyler (Logan Huffman) has become a “peace ambassador” for the V's and is falling in love with Anna's daughter Lisa (Laura Vandervoort). Ryan's girlfriend is pregnant with a hybrid baby.

Loved this series, a must see series.
