A [[TheRemake remake]] of the [[Series/{{V 1983}} original series]], airing on Creator/{{ABC}}. Massive spaceships appear over many of the major cities of Earth, and simultaneously broadcasted images of "Anna", the leader of the Visitors. She claims that her own species is 'delighted' to find another intelligent species and want to trade their own technology for water and a "common mineral".

** The episode ''Laid Bare'' had the extreme misfortune to air 10 days after the Tucson shooting that led to the deaths of six people and congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords being hospitalized. There was considerable media buzz following the shooting and many accused right-wing pundits like Radio/GlennBeck and UsefulNotes/SarahPalin of encouraging violent behavior through rhetoric. Keeping this in mind, ''Laid Bare'' has a scene involving a [[spoiler: fake]] relative of a victim of an anti-V suicide bomb blaming ''protagonist'' Jack's rhetoric for the bombing. Of course, this episode aired so soon after the tragedy that it was obviously completed before it occurred, making this a case of ''extremely'' bad timing.
** In "Devil in a blue dress" Anna is [[spoiler: giving Bliss to Tyler]] while looking like she is having sex with him. That happy smile on his face afterward doesn't help either.
