Do You Think Aliens Exist?

In episode nine of season two on V, Anna tries to bliss a human. She is elated that she can control humans the same way she does Visitors. Now she simply has to bliss the humans into listening to her in order to gain total control of Earth.

This is actually pretty relevant with all of the talk of aliens on the news lately. I definitely think that there is some other life out there. I mean, why would we be the only ones? That’s a bit conceited, right? The real question is whether these other forms of life would be able to survive on Earth and vice versa. Perhaps the environments are just so different that it would be too much of a shock.

Now, if aliens were to come to Earth, I’m sure I would be a bit skeptical of them, but I would probably trust them until given a reason not to. It’s like Jem and Will in Clockwork Angel. Jem always expects the best in people and will always assumes the worst. In this case, I would imagine that I would be more like Jem. What about you?

Speaking of aliens, does anyone know of any good alien books? The only one I can think of is the I Am Number Four series. Which reminds me, I still need to read the novella and the second book.

Treachery on V

In the television show V, Hobbes constantly calls Ryan out as a traitor even though his treachery has far worse consequences. Not only has Hobbes killed humans, he slept with Erica and then indirectly caused the death of Erica's ex-husband Joe. There is always that person who is quick to point out your faults, but doesn’t recognize their own.

This is pretty classic in YA books, especially when bullying is involved. One book that immediately comes to mind is The Lipstick Laws by Amy Holder. Britney calls April out on all of her actions, yet Britney does a lot of the same things herself. Britney was mean to nearly every person, but when April starts to throw a little of it back at her, Britney went crazy. 

Like the movie, “Mean Girls,” I think most of this stems from insecurity. The person who is doing the accusing (in the case of “V,” it’s Hobbes) usually is doing it because they are uncomfortable with their own actions. All they want to do is put the blame on someone else. By focusing on Ryan, Hobbes doesn’t need to look at his own treachery and the consequences of it.


We've all known people like this in our lives. They are quick to point out your faults, just so they do not have to look at their own. Always fun! Feel free to share your stories in the comments. 

To see more of these treacherous actions, you can buy Season 2 of V on DVD and Blu-ray!

What I Would Write if V Wasn't Cancelled

I first came across the television show, V, when I was at ComicCon in 2009. We got to preview the first episode and see a panel with the stars. It was actually awesome and the show was really intriguing. Unfortunately, the show got cancelled after two seasons.

In the series finale, the 5th Column is crushed in a failed coup against Anna. A new human opposition force has entered the picture called Aries Project. All humans above ground are blissed and fall under Anna's spell just as the V Armada approaches. An evil twin Lisa has been created who seduces Tyler, becomes impregnated by him, and then murders him. Lisa, the Visitor Princess, is imprisoned after an attack on her Mother's life and Anna kills her mother Diana.

That’s all pretty crazy, right? If the show had been picked up for a third season and, magically, I was writing the next episode, I’m pretty sure it would be even crazier. Since I have been so obsessed with apocalyptic and dystopian books lately, I would make the third season premiere be doomsday for humanity. Of course there would be various survivors, leading the characters into a dystopian world. The Visitor/human hybrids would survive the apocalypse, as well as some humans and Visitors. The third season would focus on the survivors trying to make sense of this new world. The V’s would rule the world (hello, dystopia) and V/human hybrids and humans would both fall under their regime. Everyone would be terrified except for the Vs. I don’t know about you, but I think it sounds pretty good. If you could write the next episode, what would you make happen?
