Remakery

Tonight ABC's remake of NBC's "V" airs.

No matter how many times I re-read that statement, it sounds pretty ridiculous.

Even with Morena Baccarin (mmm... Morena Baccarin...) in it, I fully-expect this remake to suck beyond human capacity to understand. Why?

The original "V" was okay for its time, but it hasn't really aged all that well and like most attempts at a franchise, it pewtered out into well-earned oblivion for a reason.

Did the lessons of Reanimator teach us nothing? Don't raise the dead! That counts for TV shows too! Remember "Knight Rider", after all.

That said, I expect I'll watch the show tonight. If I have to eat my words, well I can live with that.
