V Television Program

Some story lines just never get old -- star-crossed lovers, mistaken identity, lizard men from outer space. It's impossible to tiptoe around the main plot device of ABC's "V"# -- those aliens may be smart and purty but they're up to no good -- because it is, of course, a remake of the 1983 miniseries(The_Original_Miniseries). And even if it weren't, writers Kenneth Johnson and Scott Peters have infused the pilot with as many sly sci-fi references as CG special effects. Which are pretty terrific, as is the pilot in general.
