“V” (ABC, 8 p.m., Nov. 3) won’t be on for a while, but it will likely seem welcome by the time it starts when some of the other shows of the new season will have faded. The remake of the 1980s alien invasion miniseries and series is smartly redone as a metaphor for modern media age. It has a sparkling cast that includes Elizabeth Mitchell from “Lost,“ Scott Wolf and the mesmerizing Morena Baccarin as an alien. And best of all, it has a solid sense of what it’s all about – campy, a little creepy, but mostly about entertaining.

Fall TV: Best & Worst New Shows

Fall TV is back in session, and the tube returns from its summer break with a shiny slate of new shows. But which ones will pass the test and become hits, and which ones will flunk out after a few episodes? Here’s our guide to the best and worst of 2009′s freshman series. — By Kelly Woo

HEAD OF THE CLASS

‘V’

ABC’s been hunting for a worthy successor to ‘Lost’ for years now and failing dismally. But the net just may have found one with this sleekly modern remake of the campy ’80s show, with vibrant characters and amazing special effects. Oh, and it’s scary as hell. We still have goosebumps.

Airs Tue., 8PM on ABC | Premieres Nov. 3

[...] The rest of the list: AOL

Remind: There’s still time for asking questions to Elizabeth and the rest of the cast here.

What’s V all about? Should you watch? Read on…

You won’t see any shoulder pads or big ’80s hair in this revamp of the sci-fi cult classic—and this series wastes no time revealing the true nature of the Visitors. Still there will be plenty of surprises—especially the conclusion to the first episode. Save your snacks for later, because you will scream.

The Vs—as the populace quickly abbreviates them—cause some mild damage and major hysteria when they descend on Earth and position their spaceships above major cities throughout the globe. But humans just love getting presents (including peace, harmony and cool techno-gadgets), especially when delivered by a beautiful alien leader, Anna, who comes in smokin’-hot wrapping. So as far as the Earthlings are concerned, everything is copacetic with the Vs.

But count on the cynicism of a few grouchy New Yorkers—including FBI agent Erica Evans (Lost‘s Mitchell), a priest (Gretsch) and an ambitious news anchor (Wolf)—to stir up questions about the invaders’ true intentions.

Unfortunately, Evans’ teenage son is not so cynical. In fact, as soon as he meets the Vs, he’s a lost cause. His single mom is going to have a tough time separating him from his Peace Ambassador uniform, wicked space-shuttle flights and a seductive blond alien recruiter. (Kids today!)

It won’t be easy for others in the resistance movement either. Father Jack’s faith in God and religion is challenged, while reporter Ryan Seacrest Chad Decker is forced to choose between integrity…and phenomenal success.

Verdict: Watch!

Reptiles with an agenda

ABC’s V is based on a 1983 NBC miniseries that spawned a sequel and a short-lived weekly series. Both versions center on a reptilian race of aliens, disguised as humans, who visit Earth on spaceships. Though they at first appear friendly, their agenda is more sinister.

The re-imagination of the series switches around some of the roles. The new version replaces Marc Singer’s character of Michael Donovan with Elizabeth Mitchell’s role. In the original series Jane Balder played the diabolical Diana, the show’s primary villain. Morena Baccarin’s role of Anna makes the original’s Diana look like Mother Teresa. Anna is described by ABC as “fierce and manipulative” and rules over the Visitors with “an iron fist.”
