V

My brother and I used to love the series "V", that was shown in the early 80s. It was about "The visitors" - aliens - who came to Earth, allegedly in friendship. As time passes people work out that all is not what it seems. First, the aliens are in fact wearing a disguise - they are not beautiful Californians, but lizards in rubber human suits. Secondly, the visitors are actually here to feed on the humans. [I know - but it was better than it sounds!]

Imagine my excitement when I discover that ABC are planning a remake. There's a trailer here. Looking forward to this coming to the UK :-)

Woo hoo! I loved this show too. The trailer looks great. This all reminds of the new rebooted Star Trek film; hopefully this series is as good at that film.
