Author Topic: Question about V, the series. Claude S. Ayakawa Film God Posts: 2738 From: Waipahu, Hawaii, USA Registered: Aug 2002 posted 04-07-2010 07:44 PM                        I saw the original V mini series when it first aired in the 80's and when I saw a DVD box set that said "The Complete Series" at Walmart today for $10.00, I bought it thinking it was the original series. When I opened the package at home, I noticed the outer cover said "The Space Invasion Continues" I was not aware the series continued after the original series ended. I know it is back on again at ABC when the network pissed off a lot of LOST fans with a clock on the bottom right of the screen during a recent episode of the very popular program promoting the new science fiction show the first night it aired. Is the DVD box set I bought today a continuation of the original V series and the series currently on at this time a continuation of DVD series I bought today? -Claude  |  IP: Logged Kurt Zupin Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 989 From: Maricopa, Arizona Registered: Oct 2004 posted 04-08-2010 03:56 AM                     Claude the new series is a modern version of the same story. Very good show, even with the whole clock fiasco.  |  IP: Logged Mark J.
