Well, Val’s water has broken and she’s captured by a V tracker and taken onto Anna’s V ship. The labor isn’t going well, but the V doctors manage to get the baby out safely. Anna kills Val as she doesn’t want the mess of the mother around as she works to bring Ryan on board. Ryan is so concerned about Val he goes aboard and waits in anxiety for word about Val and the baby.

'V' (1.11) "Fruition" – Review
Tue, 05/18/2010 - 09:31 — Karyn Methven
Yes, we’re back for yet another week of hell. God, I’m bored to death with this show. Erica deals with Lisa’s injuries and the fact that she ID’d two people that Erica knows didn’t kick her butt. Lisa is just following Anna’s political line. Anna uses her beat down to trick us stupid humans into thinking that they’re leaving. Oh, please god. Don’t let me down now. Nope, they don’t go, drats. Foiled again. So bitchy-woman and her brood are here to torture humans with their utterly stupid crap. I’m wondering if the humans they’ve been doing experiments on see little gray men and not the slug-like reptiles the Visitors really are. Man. There are words, people. WORDS.
'Chuck' and 'V' Renewed - 'Flash Forward' Finally Dead
Fri, 05/14/2010 - 09:16 — Jason Van Horn
It was reported earlier this week, so it's not surprising to see the official word finally come from NBC regarding the fact that Chuck has been renewed. Hip hip hoo-frakking-ray!
In regards to more surprising news, ABC has officially ordered a second season of V, which reportedly being 13-episodes right now. The show hasn't been terrible in terms of ratings or content, but it hasn't been exactly stellar either.
As for news that was just a matter of time coming, ABC also officially announced that Flash Forward has been cancelled. It's about time!
'V' (1.10) “Hearts and Minds” – Review
Tue, 05/11/2010 - 09:38 — Karyn Methven
The Resistance blew up a V shuttle, but much to their horror, they didn’t find dead Visitors - they find human remains. This screws up Father Jack and he leaves the Resistance. Little do they realize that Jack is the one to blame for the change because he told Chad not to ride V shuttles that day, and Chad told Anna, who put dead humans onboard.
'V' (1.9) "Heretic's Fork" – Review
Thu, 04/29/2010 - 12:15 — Jason Van Horn
No matter what it does, V is still that show I turn to each week for something new to watch, but one I know is a show I wouldn't really miss should it leave the airwaves. It's okay, but for everything cool it does there's some annoyance that ultimately brings it back down. ABC was hoping either FlashForward or V would be the next Lost, but if anything they're going to be the next Invasion – a one and done show.
"V" (1.8) "We Can’t Win" – Review
Tue, 04/27/2010 - 08:22 — Karyn Methven
As Anna goes to a special meeting in Geneva to present a new form of energy to the UN, she has Chad Decker come along to witness her beneficence. Ryan is out looking for Valerie, but she is at a V Healing Center. Ryan finds her at the last possible second just as the Visitor doctor is about to hold Val against her will.
'V' (1.7) "John May" – Review
Tue, 04/20/2010 - 12:27 — Jason Van Horn
V has just been a slightly above-average series for me, where I don't mind watching the show, but if it was pulled I probably wouldn't be involved in any letter writing campaigns. While I'm still not at that level of devotion by a long shot, after this past episode I would feel a little bad if the show never came back on. It was an episode filled with plenty of discoveries, secrets, and tadpole pooping fun.
'V' (1.6) "Pound of Flesh" – Review
Tue, 04/13/2010 - 10:05 — Jason Van Horn
V, so far, has been an okay series to me. There are some elements that seem to drag, but there are other things that keep me entertained and watching. I'm not too keen on the personal relationships and character drama, but I like seeing The Fifth Column work at bringing down the Vs and their struggles against them.
'V' (1.5) "Welcome to the War" - Review
Tue, 04/06/2010 - 09:42 — Karyn Methven
Okay, let’s get the lowdown, shall we? Tyler is on the V ship and undergoing a memory thingamajiggy, which is confusing Lisa because she doesn’t understand human memory. Anna finds what she needs and lets Tyler go, but this doesn’t help Erica. She’s been in a state since she found out that Tyler was on the ship. Father Jack has been taken to a V healing center and Georgie has been sent to find him. Jack gets some R6, which is doing something to him.
'V' Returns With Okay Ratings
Thu, 04/01/2010 - 07:51 — Jason Van Horn
V returned this past Wednesday after being off the air for a fairly long hiatus (considering they had only showed four episodes before going off). While the show didn't return with stellar ratings, as it turns out they weren't bad numbers either.
"According to The Hollywood Reporter's Live Feed blog, the sci-fi drama drew 7.3 million viewers with a 2.9 preliminary rating among adults 18-49, down slightly from its last new episode last year"
Michael Trucco Set To Play 'V' Resistance Leader
Tue, 02/16/2010 - 09:18 — Jason Van Horn
Michael Trucco, who fans probably know best as Anders from Battlestar Galactica, has joined on to V to play the fabled resistance leader John May, who was referenced in the first four episodes of the series. Currently, Trucco is set to play the character for only one episode.
"According to the four episodes we saw of V last fall, May is the founder and leader of the Fifth Column, the group of Vs who are against their peoples' plans for Earth and the human race. Ryan (Morris Chestnut), a sleeper V who has been on Earth since before the Visitors arrived, once was involved in the resistance. Now he and Earthlings Erica (Elizabeth Mitchell) and Father Jack (Joel Gretsch) are attempting to resurrect the Fifth Column."
Three More Actors Join 'V'
Mon, 02/08/2010 - 08:55 — Jason Van Horn
Three more actors have just joined the cast of V and many of them should be familiar to fans of the sci-fi/fantasy genre. Charles Mesure (Xena: Warrior Princess), Nicholas Lea (X-Files, Andromeda) and the lovely Lexa Doig (Andromeda, Stargate SG-1) will all be joining the show when it returns.
"Mesure will pop up as a black ops mercenary hired by the resistance to bolster their forces. Lea will be playing Erica's (Elizabeth Mitchell) ex-husband in what William Keck says is a two-ep arc. And Loig will be an OB/GYN who is taking care of the alien-impregnated Valerie Stevens (Lourdes Benedicto)."
ABC Not Giving Up On 'Flash Forward' and 'V'
Wed, 01/13/2010 - 09:14 — Jason Van Horn
Flash Forward and V - two shows ABC hopes can grow to replace Lost after its final season - haven't met the greatest of successes yet. They haven't done terrible, but they haven't been as successful as the network was hoping for either. Still, despite growing problems, ABC isn't ready to give up on the two shows yet. The network has talked with the creators, know what their game plans are moving on from here, and they believe they've got some great stuff lined up from them.
ABC Cuts 'V' and 'Flash Forward' Season Orders
Wed, 12/09/2009 - 09:08 — Jason Van Horn
Well, it's good news in a sense, as it's not news regarding ABC completely canceling V and Flash Forward, but it's still not exactly 100% positive news. The word today is that ABC will be cutting an episode from both V and Flash Forward's season order. That means that V (returning March 30) will have eight episodes while Flash Forward (returning March 4) will have 14 new episodes.
'V' (1.4) “It’s Only the Beginning” – Review
Fri, 11/27/2009 - 09:49 — Karyn Methven
What happened this week on “V”? Well, Anna invited Tyler up to the ship to meet her, but Lisa doesn’t tell Tyler that Anna is her mother until they meet up. Tyler ignores his mother because Anna is showing Tyler the propulsion system and filling his head with things. Tyler is even more enamoured of the “V”.
