05.19.09 NEW PROMOS AND STILLS FROM THE ‘V’ REMAKE

Pssssst… behind you.

Next fall, ABC will air a remake/re-imagining of the classic ’80s miniseries “V,” starring Morris Chestnut, Michael J. Fox, and a bunch of other people who look vaguely familiar. Wait a minute. That’s not Michael J. Fox, that’s Scott Wolf. Holy crap, he looks EXACTLY like Michael J. Fox. That’s uncanny. He’s a degenerative movement disorder away from being Teen Wolf’s son. He’s even got the right last name!

What? Oh right, the TV show. Anyway, judging by the stills, the people of Earth spend a lot of time looking up at the sky, and the producers have done away with the iconic red spray-painted V, as well as the Fascist ovetones in the alien wardrobe. Now the aliens just wear sleek gray suits with futuristic collars. You can always identify alien life forms because their collars are all weird. Which is why I take an aluminum baseball bat to anyone with a popped collar. Can’t take any chances.

"...and Keyboard Cat plays right after the spaceships arrive."

I’m down, as long as they still turn out to be lizard people who swallow whole guinea pigs.

As long as Juilet’s rack-nificent boobs get proper screen time, I’m good.

Oh I guess he’s not one of the “special” people. Which means he probably gets eaten.

And may I say, I’m deeply ashamed of how long it took me to recognize Morena Baccarin with a pixie cut.

I really enjoyed the pop-up texts on some of the pictures at the bottom. It’s the little things. You put the “b” in subtle, Matt.

Man, they kinda got carried away with the younger and sexier casting. Does ANYONE know a priest who looks like that?
