It's got a tough timeslot. It's competing against NCIS, which has been getting well over 20M viewers a week and The Biggest Loser, which already has a following.

LOL I'm surprised at the money they've thrown behind this show which seems destined to fail. Tons of TV ads, print ads, billboards, etc--and then they'll show 4 episodes, put it on haitus until forever and then rerelease it in a super-tough timeslot. Geez.

Scott Rosenbaum, who was an Executive Producer on Chuck, is now taking over as Showrunner.

And just to confirm, they have only shot the 4 episodes that will air this month. They will resume production on episodes 5-13 in January.

I'm sure the first 4 episodes will be very good and it'll end on a huge cliffhanger to make people interested enough to wait until March. That alone might be worth watching, just to see how hard they try.

The hiatus also allows for Elizabeth Mitchell to head to Oahu for Lost. I don't think she's be able to do V and Lost at the same time.

Nashville ABC affiliate isnt showing this until 12:05am the first 3 nights due to a Tennessee Titans weekly update show. The team is 1-6 so i figure they could finish all the highlights for the week during the first commercial break but guess I will have to wait and DVR it.

I assume ABC will have an encore later this week? I didn't realize it was on tonight and hadn't set the DVR to record it.

I really enjoyed it. Some nice throwbacks to the original. Is it too much to want an Ironside cameo though

So...does this mean Inara and Wash were conspiring against the rest of the crew of Serenity?
Quite impressed. This show benefits greatly from having some top notch FX, how long those will sustain the series has yet to be seen, but they have already owned the original in that department. So tell me: are we to assume at this point that Visitor sleeper cells are like the Cylons on BG, where they don't know what they are until activated?

I'm expecting Marc Singer to show up down the road.
