The V Series

Are you wondering why the V series hasn’t been on the air the last couple of weeks?

Apparently ABC decided to only show the first 4 episodes now and to air the remaining nine episodes starting in March 2010.

On one hand it makes sense. The Winter Olympics are coming up and the holidays aren’t the best time of year for television viewing. They might find it hard to get good ratings for the next couple of months. Plus if they have 4 episodes in the bank they could theoretically start re-running them in February when Lost starts up again. Especially considering Elizabeth Mitchell has been on Lost for 52 episodes. A commercial or two for V during Lost might help the ratings for V when it starts up again.

Skeptics will say that ABC did it because ABC sucks and doesn’t support their television shows very well. Skeptics would say it allowed ABC to see if V was going to get good enough ratings and cancel the show early without spending a lot on producing another 9 episodes.

So far so good. We haven’t been the top show, but we’re going ok and it looks like we’ll be back in March
