      I was 7 back then in 1983, and it was scary when it first came out because it seemed like it was real and the whole world was tuned in. I'm watching it for the first time now and I'm like, this isn't too scary. It's kind of like watching an episode of The A-Team, but with alien visitors instead as the bad guys. I only wish the women in the V Series still looked like they did back then because I'm single and never been married and would enjoy a fun and mature date.

    Absolute 80s awesomeness as a kid age 9 I can remember when this show came to England. When Mike Donovan sneaked aboard the transporter into the mothership and he was in the vent and the visitor took out his eyes and put them into the glass and those terrifying eyes was revealed, that scared the scrap out of me.

      Still the berst scene with him was the Christmas episode were Willie had been so rough treated. Also it was a fine example of Civil Courage in the best style of the movie CASABLANCA. What I talk about?

      Oh yes the 80's were the best in everything. Movies, shows, and music. They are suppose to make a V movie for the big screen. I hope it still happens although I'm sure the pandemic might have delayed it some. But I hope they make the movie and it's suppose to be a trilogy if the first film does well which I'm sure it will.

    I like Marc he seems legitimately excited about all of his projects regardless of what they are.
    He is happy to be in the career he chose.
    He is down to earth and always has time for his fans. He doesn't mind talking V and Beastmaster even though they were made thirty something years ago. He says you get into acting it's not a punishment to get remembered for something...that's why you get into this in the first place. Most don't get remembered for anything.

    Thanks for this upload. Nice to see Marc Singer looking in good health in his later years now. Will always remember V The miniseries. Did not think much to the series spin off, thought the miniseries was far better. There has always been something sci-fi out there to help me through and to latch on. When I was a kid, started with Dr Who, then came V, to help me get through school, and the best thing was, I didn't have to wait a week and survive another week in school for the next episode, as it showed all five parts from Monday through Friday. Thanks for the memories, Marc. After V by the way, came The X - Files, more supernatural/sci fi than just sci fi, but there's always been something.
