Hulu doesn't work in the UK. I'm up to date....I won't admit to exactly how I've seen them, but needless to say, SOME people use Bit Torrenting.

I hear that for decent TV show Bit Torrents, http://eztv.it/ is quite good. Even has RSS feeds for favourite shows.

Oooh. Got caught up on the two new eps. Very interesting.

Though the fact that the wife and I are re-watching Firefly right now makes things a little off seeing Inara/Anna. I like Inara better!

I'm enjoying this series a lot. I think they are starting to really develop the characters nicely. The kid is a little annoying though. ;D

Does anyone know if this has been renewed or not.

Boy am I slow.

It took me until last night to get the double meaning behind the name of the Fifth Column.

V = five in latin

Nice catch, I didn't notice. So do you think the V in the title of the show doesn't stand for Visitors but for five?
Considering the original was supposed to be a alien-free political thriller with Nazi allegories it wouldn't be surprising the original title would be be derived from the Fifth Column, as there were no Visitors.

I think it is for the five. When I think of graffiti and statements, I can see them using the same letter as their own.

I read it won't be returning right away in the fall and ABC is holding it for mid-season next year.

"V" now stands for Victory as of the Red Sky episode.

Anyone have ideas for what the red sky is an indication of? Is it the appearance of all the other ships (kinda like the effect they used in Independence Day when the motherships came through the atmosphere)?  Or is it some kind of scrotched sky like in The Matrix?

hmmmmmm.....

For me, Red skies always foretell that a crisis is coming... (Those into comics will know the reference)

I've just watched the latest episode....now I'm really enjoying this show. But one thing bothers me slightly (and it is only slightly). There is a lot of terrorist and 5th column planning that occurs via mobile phone. The sort of things that, should the wrong ears hear it, would result in a whole shed load of trouble for some of the characters. You'd think that the V's, with all of thier technology, would be able to listen in on these kinds of conversations.......just a thought.

Apart from that, loving it. Glad it's got a another season.

I thought about that a couple weeks ago and was surprised that they weren't hacked into or bugged or whatever.  Its really rather strange.
