Actually the storyline was that the "alien" race of reptilians dressed up as human like needed "saltwater", something we have too much and don't need", and in return they'd give us "technologies".

It ofcourse was a false front so that they could eat our brains or something.

I remember that 'V' show! It was a hoot! A bunch of aliens disguised as humans befriended the earthlings and a war ensued with the good guys winning, of course. Some of these aliens were good. But one baddie was a female who ate live rodents. This is all I remember of that show, yup.

I remember it, and I read the book, too.

The mini-series was terrific, and it had that wicked theme-song, too.

The TV series was, as I recall, pretty damned bad, unfortunately. Obviously they didn't have the budget they should have had.

I remember the series vividly. I remember that the chief female alien (the one who ate rats), wears boots way too small for her feet. If you ever get the chance to watch it again, remember to look at her tiny pincer toes!

Yes, I remember the series. It was quite entertaining.

Look in the Book of Revelation. "Out of their mouths came spirits like frogs". Frogs are reptilian.

"Dude", sorry, I don't want to be rude, but frogs are amphibians, not reptiles.

Maybe it's time to read some non-fiction books.

v was a quality series.. used to be on about 11.30pm in the uk and i used to stay up late to watch it and go to school tired.. I was about 10 when it was first aired.

Diana and donovans woman where a pair of foxy chics alright, plus you knew it could only get better when michael ironside turned up in the later episodes with loads of c4 and red dust!

I always think of V when the ships first come into sight in the movie independence day.

We need new and improved V for the 20th century, i for one would watch it.

I second that opinion ! I watched V and loved it. I even had the little alien gun toy. when you pulled the trigger it would light up in the middle. I loved that thing.

hey....if they can bring back Knight Rider, they can bring back V. surely Sci-Fi channel could do it or something.

Where can i watch this show? I only saw a couple of episodes when i was a kid. My parents didn't like it so i didn't get to watch it back then....i bet it is on DVD?

good thing for the humans the Beastmaster was on their side...

Wasn't the "V" to stand for "The Visitors"? I don't know why that rings a bell. It's been since the original airing that I saw the show, but I recall it well. I also believe that it would be successful if re-made in a contemporary setting.

I really remember that I thought the alien leader woman was "hot" initially, until she ate the rats. Then she was "wicked hot".

I find it of note that many of the "fantastic" liberties taken with the "V" story are currently found on countless threads on this forum. (shape-shifting reptilians among that list, obviously.)

I wonder if many of the "reptilian chasers" were fans of the "V" story...

Has anyone found the earliest reported claim of the Reptilian theory? As in one that we know to be the same thing David Icke et al are banging on about (and not some weird quote from the bible that could be talking about anything)? It would be interesting to know if it pre-dates V, or whether V was around before. It could be this whole theory (which *still* has no evidence) was merely started by V. It would make more sense than the actual reptilian theory.
