It is so weird to be old enough to see the reincarnation of past trends. I suppose a lot of pop culture is on a giant cycle and so if you live long enough, you may see the same things pass by you several times.
When I was little, I spent a lot of evenings at my grandparents house. My grandpa watched a lot of sports and a lot of political stuff. I remember this because he always yelled at the TV, good times. And my grandma watched Falcon Crest, Dallas, and Cheers. For some reason, I remember watching V at their house quite vividly. Why, I have no idea, I was only 7 at the time. This pretty much guarantees I will have to check out the new show based on the old one. I think the remakes of a lot of shows like this are mainly attributed to massive leaps in technology. Also, the new V has Juliet from LOST. What does that mean for her character there? I mean, I remember how last season ended, but it's LOST, she's bound to show up in some fashion.
After writing this post, I think the main point was to practice my reference tags.

Great job on the tags ;)
That is so funny. Mike just watched the old V a couple days ago. He got it from the library.
I remember watching the old V. It was like a train wreck for me. It was really scary but I couldn't look away when my dad had it on. It was popular where I grew up. I remember being 10 or 11 and babysitting and the kids begging me to let them watch it. No way would I put it on for them because I knew I would put them to bed and I would be alone with freaky lizards on my mind. I know that is really random but I am going to set my Tivo tonight to check it out.
