V
Created by Kenneth Johnson
On NBC
A 1980s sci-fi action serial about human resistance against shape-shifting alien invaders, balancing pulpy spectacle with genuine stakes over a single, sustained season.
Once again, Earth is the battleground. But now the aliens whose human guise hides their true reptilian natures are wiser. They believe the secret to their survival on Earth lies in the DNA of the newly born half-human, half-spaceling Starchild. But that's something the world's Resistance Fighters cannot allow.
