V – Laid Bare Promo Pics

Okay, be honest. Who among us thought V would make it through its first season without being axed?

When I first heard about the reboot of the 80’s invasion show, I couldn’t help but roll my eyes. Don’t get me wrong. I was a big fan of the original V, especially when you consider that there wasn’t a whole lot of variety in the science-fiction and fantasy area of television viewing… but the V of that time was way too cheesy to fly with today’s crowd. Luckily, the producers realized the same thing. They took the original premise and roughed up the edges a little bit, giving the show a little grittiness and realism.

That grittiness really comes through loud and clear in the promo pics below that were provided to us by ABC.

V is back for its second season on Tuesday, January 4th, and the show’s not playing around. Don’t believe me? Check out the first 15 minutes of the season premiere. That will make a believer out of you.

Tuesday, January 18 (9:00-10:00 p.m., ET)
