    WOOOOOOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!

    • tommymommy

      And HEEEEEHAAAAAAWWWW!

    • LOL

      Hard to believe. This show is a train wreck.

      • thin

        I’ve seen every episode, and LOL is right.

      • daron Gardner

        It would be a much better show if the director just would stop encouraging Anna to ALWAYS look evil and smug the second she is done tricking someone. Hey, you know they can see your face still, idiot! Also the same problem is cropping up with the lead FBI agent. She is supposed to be on Anna’s side, so why is she always starring daggers at her. Whoever does the direction is an idiot or thinks the audience are idiots. They might as well be doing a boisterous evil laugh or twisting a mustache.

        V is sooo bad it’s good. It’s gotta be written by a 4 year-old.

        I like how in every episode the Party of Five guy is totally shocked that Anna has a hidden agenda.

        LOL. Oh, what a show.

  • LAJackie

    I’m glad to hear it. The show doesn’t have the best scripts but I’m enjoying where the story is going so I’m interested to see where else it will lead. Good job ABC.

  • Michael

    YES! The show has actually gotten good.

    • tvgirl48

      I agree. I was kinda bored with it in the beginning, but I think it’s slowly gotten better and I think it deserves more time to see if they can hit their stride and really make something out of it.

  • Michael

    YES! The show has actually gotten good.

  • Nanda

    OMG! I really hope this is right! The last two episodes were great!

  • Brian D

    With LOST ending, and the viewership holding around 7million, it could be a good thing for ABC to keep the show. Been enjoying it so far.

  • Eden

    Awesome! This show keeps getting better and better.

  • milo

    That’s a huge shock, ratings were terrible. I wonder if they are hoping it picks up or if they are planning on having this be it?

    • Hiro Kitty

      Except the ratings weren’t terrible.

      • Lo

        Yes, they were. V got last place on Tuesday behind The Good Wife and Parenthood. It had awful retention out of ABC’s two biggest shows. And when Lost was a repeat, it dropped like a rock.

      • Shannon

        Actually they are Hiro Kitty.

    • Katie

      It may have gotten last place but the demo ratings actually weren’t that far apart. V got a 2.3 this week. The Good Wife got a 2.4 and Parenthood a 2.6. Not much difference. Parenthood and TGW also don’t have great retention and would probably drop like a rock too if their lead-in was taken away.

  • Josh Emerson

    Pretty cool! I’m enjoying V.

  • MichaelSacal

    YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • flashforward

    NOOOO!!! This is horrible!!! That means that flashforward wont be renewed and it is a much better show. V is boring, unintelligent, dumbed down, and just plain annoying. Id much rather flashforward be renewed.

    • walter17

      how old are you? pohtey nama.

      • J

        What is pohtey nama?? I searched it on google and your post on this article was the ONLY result. Congrats on being the first and only (until now) person to say pohtey nama on the internet.

        As for V, it’s not the best show (it’s weaknesses are all the more apparent when airing after Lost), but it has it’s moments, and I’ll probably keep watching. I still think there’s zero chemistry between the main group of heroes, though. I’m actually interested in the Tyler/Lisa storyline now, and before I used to find it really annoying. The show’s growing on me.

        And Anna is a great villain. If I ever saw her in real life I’d run in the other direction. Ice cold biatch ftw.

      • Riley

        Try looking up “pretanama”

    • Shannon

      Ditto flashforward.

    • Katie

      V getting canceled would not have improved Flashforward’s chances. FF is beyond dead thanks to its horrifyingly bad demo ratings (1.3 for the last episode). Anything below 2.0 is a tough sell, 1.3 is inexcusable. You’re insane if you think FF still had a chance of renewal.

    • Syd

      I know I was so bored with V it was lame. FlashForward has been so amazing, RIP :’(

  • Thomas

    I’m so happy. When V first came out I liked it. Now I love it, its really picking up steam.

  • walter17

    NBC? you mean ABC.

  • Chris Shifty

    It goes from a 1.9 to 2.1 to 2.3 and has been 7 million or under (mostly under) since it returned in the spring. Guess ABC’s development wasn’t that strong.
