Tonight, V ends its first season nearly as hollow and uninteresting as it was when it began it. I know it was a surprise to no one, but it's really a shame FlashForward lost the ABC renewal game to V. FlashForward was a cluttered, unfocused mess, but FlashForward was still a much better show than V.

When you're done recovering from your New Year's hangover and can only handle watching something significantly less exciting than the night you just had, you can turn on the V marathon tonight on ABC. It's also the perfect thing to watch if you want to fall asleep early to make up for staying up late the night before since nothing ever happens on the remade series.

This week's installment of V (ABC, 8 PM) has Erica and impossibly good-looking Father Jack realize that a seeker from the V's is following them. Who wouldn't follow Father Jack?

The lizard people are here! And it's... kind of exciting, I guess! Truth be told, it took me days to get through the pilot because I kept getting bored, but by the end I suppose I was glad I soldiered through it. I'm certainly glad Elizabeth Mitchell and Scott Wolf have jobs, so that's something. In any case, if you've seen the original and are looking for a respectful adaptation, this is actually a pretty good one. They took some liberties, but I think a couple of them were smart.
