I enjoyed watching every episode of V: The Series and it really deserved more than one series.
One of my favorite characters was Ham Tyler played by one of my favorite actors, Michael "Total Recall" Ironside. I was disappointed he was written out midway through the series. It was like losing a loyal friend who knew what to do in any crisis.
Also when I saw Robert Englund's name in the credits in the earlier mini-series, I wondered if that was the same Robert Englund in Nightmare on Elm Street, released the same year???!!! It was!!! Willy was so different to Freddie big time, but that's a testament to Robert's incredible acting skills. I remember seeing an interview with Robert when he said that at an autograph session, many eager V fans turned up to meet him, and then a bunch of leather clad bike club type folks turned up and asked him to autograph their gear...they were Nightmare on Elm Street fans!!!
Ironically, Diana (Jane Badler, who was in the reboot of the Mission Impossible TV series) marries Charles - get it??!!! Anyway, their marriage didn't last as long as the real Diana and Charles, and Diana is arrested for poisoning Charles. One episode which haunted me was when Diana and Lydia (the beautiful June Chadwick) frame an innocent young woman, and her punishment is to be sent off to space with the corpse of Charles in a glass box forever.
