Will The Visitors Return??

 So "V" is on the bubble and may not return. When I watched the first couple episodes, I would have agreed the show was a little to much on the superficial side. But the last half of the season was getting better and the last show was a game changer.
  I loved the fact that the son got eaten. This gives it the chance to evolve into a darker gritty show. I have a feeling if the show continued it would become something more akin to the show most of us want.
  Marc Singer made a guest appearance in the last show. So I might still get a chance to see him riding on a horse, shooting at a space ship over head. I think V should be given another season what do you think?

Visitors new vs old

   I think back to the time of a teenager in my scouts uniform waiting for Marc Singer (Beastmaster Love it) to ride on his horse and fire his energy gun in the sky at the visitor shuttle hope to save the world from oppression.
   Now I watch the abercrombie clones trying to fill the shoes of the SS like visitors of old. Don't get me wrong the show is not bad it is not meant to be a slam against the OK story line.
  I just wish they could have kept the feeling of a real every man Resistance. Like in the original series the story had grifter, gardener, waitress, and elderly saving the world.
    Now you have a Merc, FBI, Priest ( War Vet), Alien Hunter, and Princess.
 I loved the original because the old man next door could kick alien butt.  Hope I am not the only one.
