Sometimes, something will come along and make an impact on your life forever. V by Kenneth Johnson is one of those things for me. The miniseries was a surprise hit on British television, beating the Los-Angeles Olympics over at the BBC. I do remember some excitement about this show before it aired, but my memory as an eight-year-old is a little cloudy. I just know it was a big hit for me. For a child who had grown up with Star Wars, V was very much a step into a far more realistic setting and an adult-themed world. I have revisited the entire series once or twice over the years, but after watching the miniseries recently, it is slightly different from the way I remember it. Plus, I want to learn what happened behind the scenes and more about the TV show’s creation.
