So, what exactly is ABC Social: Episode Commentary?
ABC Social: Episode Commentary allows people to add their own commentary track to any ABC episode available in the ABC.com Full Episode Player and share with others.

Can anyone add comments?
The short answer is "yes." The long answer is also "yes" but with way more details. That's why we call it the long answer. And here it is: ABC show experts; writers, directors, costume designers, and others will be offering their unique insight into episodes. ABC expert commentary will be added and released with online episodes for fans to view.

Pretty cool, right? Well, there's more.
You, the fans, can start your very own episode commentary at anytime. You can share your newly created episode commentaries with your friends who can then add their own observations and knowledge to the mix. Bet you can't wait to hear what some of your friends have to say about your favorite shows.

How does sharing work?
Mom always taught us to share, so when a user logs into ABC.com using Facebook Connect and completes an episode commentary, a notification is sent to that user's Facebook News Feed. The user's Facebook friends are now free to watch and contribute to the episode. They can then forward it to their friends as well. Yes, sharing is good.

Who else can check out a user's comments?
Anyone! Yes, a commented episode will be out there for everyone to enjoy. However, only the commentary author's Facebook friends will be able to add to the collection. All commentary takes place on the official ABC Full Episode Player to ensure that all traffic and security reside within ABC.com.

So, where else on the Web can you do this "social commentary" thing?
ABC.com is the only place offering this unique feature. ABC.com is always working with network executives and show creators to author expert commentary that will enhance the shows and entertain the fans. We also wanted to give the fans the platform they deserve because your comments matter just as much as anyone's. Even more!

The hiatus this show is taking is absolutely obnoxious. If I had known it was doing this from the beginning I never would have started watching and I am definitely done now. Scott Wolf is now saying that they intend to tell the whole story in chapters? That is awful. This is also why I stopped watching Lost. What a joke.

I support you ABC... I'm a CGI Animator myself, and I understand the time demand to create, render and produce a winning product... If you need a little time to finish this awesome shows next season, I will wait impatiently... and tell as many as I can to watch when it starts back up. For those who are upset... every show takes time off air to finish the next series of episodes... don't panic because this one does too. We are of Peace, Always.

Lol, it's a little sad, but I wouldn't be surprised if it was the gouvernment that was getting this show cancelled. It's a great show, but if they put it off until March they're going to lose viewers... and then they'll cancel it. They already know all this. It's what we call "pre-canceling" Hopefully the ratings stay good after its long break, because it realy is an enjoyable show.

that possiblity actually crossed my mind yesterday, when me and a few friends were disscussing rosweell and other alien related incidents that have been covered up by the government. Hopefully the government will share their intelligence with us soon.

I scored some BLISS before watching the show and received a totally new outlook on life through Anna. I strongly recommend to all people on Earth to find a Visitor or a Peace Ambassador and get some. Do not fight the Resistance as we are Always of Peace. If you hear of a Resistance group please report your findings to Mother, Anna. Help Show That A Better World Is Possible.

I think ABC has something that they feel is stronger to air in competition with the Olympics. Because that's all they are concerned about, anyway, is money. It has nothing whatsoever to do with what what a few million viewers want, it's all about the sponsors. The sponsors hold the purse strings, and if you believe for one second that isn't what drives programming, you are kidding yourself. This show charged out of the gates, due entirely to intensive promotion, but as the weeks go by, it has weakened signifigantly, due entirely to weak scripting and bad acting. Eye-candy alone is not enough to sustain a healthy viewship, thus sponsorship. They have alot of competition in that time slot, and they need more than this slick piece of fluff to contend for their share of the audience.

SkyHarboor

Exactly right! Although I might have an argument on how 'fluffy eye candy' alone might sustain a show (bouncy but vacuous 'Baywatch' comes to mind ;-}). Anyway, one gets the impression with 'V' of a fairly hurried job after the pilot did very well... and the acting IS uneven. Still, I think the idea behind 'V' is solid enough to sustain a re-do. As with version 1.0, it's really not about 'aliens' at all, is it? Be that as it may, it IS all about the money in TV-land (and most other-lands too...). Sigh.

Oh yeah, thanks to Cybersipey for ID'ing 'Sigur Rós' (means 'Victory Rose') as the source of Anna's 'Bliss' song... amusing that they'd pick an Icelandic group to stand in for aliens! (I've always suspected that Björk is from Mars too!;-})... kidding! Also, I agree with almost everyone here that airing only 4 episodes and then a long hiatus is a programming disaster! I understand that the Winter Olympics messes scheduling up, but STILL! If ABC is serious about having a hit series, then they need to get behind it and support it. It's these kind of wishy-washy programming decisions that have put ABC in the sorry ratings mess they've been in over the last few years... Just sayin'...

If that last comment is true, I sure hope that Anna isn't interviewed by every news show making comments about her new book and how lousy her "son-in-law" is. And would Anna invite her son-in-law over for the holiday dinner? What would they eat?

I seldom watch sitcoms and I ahve never wanted to keep up with episode after episode. I remember "V" when I was growing up and truly enjoy the connection to my past along with the excitment V brings today. Each week I run to my pc to keep up. THe characters and stroy line are fantastic. Please keep "V" going. I am telling everyone I kow to watch it.

ooooo. A show where the ideal technologically advanced people are white and there is a single black man who heads the resistance against the white peoples plans. Real ground breaking. At least Flashforward has a mutli ethnic diverse cast. V stinks.

ok by the way, the black guy IS a Visitor. Watch the show before jumping to conclusions please. Erica is sort-of the leader of the resistance. And last time I checked the series information, they were all GREEN under whatever skin there was. PEACE people! Nothing insulting meant, just research before you jump on something, THAT is what is causing most issues today, people running with what they believe is the truth. I am of PEACE, always.

And why would an invading race of Aliens have a resistance. Did the Europeans have a resistance when they took America from the natives? No. They just came in tool the land and offed the natives like good invaders. O bye the way I have native blood running through my veins thats why i'm upset that the aliens have a resistance.

When I saw the show years ago the V's wanted our water and human flesh to eat. If this is the same premise you'd better change it because that was lame.

X-Caliber0069

Why in the world would the aliens/visitors call themselves Vs? Don't they have another term for their race that they use? I mean I'm enjoying the show but that makes absolutely no sense that they would use a Romanic character created by humans to refer to themselves. You'd thunk the writers are smart enough to realize some as obvious as that, but guess not.

Abbyyy86

My theories on this: 1. I'm guessing they probably call themselves Reptilians or something to that nature, but how would humans react to them coming out like "O HAI GUYS WE'RE GIANT REPTILES IN HUMAN SKIN BUT DONT BE SCARED!" People would just crap their pants, run, and shoot everything they have at them. In short, calling themselves "V"s = alot less scary to our fragile human minds. 2. Who knows maybe what they really call themselves can't even be pronounced by us, I don't think Earth languages are their native tongue so they had to come up with something we could understand, and its alot better than "A"s for Aliens. (These theories are based only from the episodes I've seen so far on ABC, haven't seen any of the originals...yet). ^.^

Did I miss something? V was pulled off the air at the insistence of the White House. Look for next season to have a whole different feeling to it. The show was a great start...The head writer was fired for his parallel references to the current government attempt at a marxist takeover...Look for next season to have a much more "predictable" bad guy...A Sarah Palin look alike with a Wasilla accent...Wouldn't surprise me a bit.

I was a youngster when the original 'V' was aired, and I loved it (contrary to some of the other comments here, I saw it through a child's eye and did't believe it was campy at all). Now my children are watching it, and I'm even more delighted. Yes, the story is too accelerated, but it's still powerful and well done. And no Viagra or Cialis commercials, which as a parent I greatly appreciate. It's something we can enjoy together, which is a blessing from television these days. My kids and I truly hope ABC will bring more 'V' to the table,

This is the best tv show I have ever seen by a long shot. I have never been so energized and excited about a show before. This show is brilliant. I love the current political issues brought forth. I even sat through every commercial so that I would not miss anything.

I do not understand why ABC will get you hooked on a series and then just stop it for a while. I understand they need to test a series but they need to have better ways to continue a program. I can't believe they are going to make us wait 4 months. I will say that streaming is a great medium. I missed the series on TV but decided to give it a try and almost watched all 4 episodes back to back. It is a great series. I think streaming will replace cable at some point because it is on demand and rarely is a series on when I can watch it. The commercials are short and tolerable unlike regular TV. The only problem with the commercials is that the same one repeats over and over. I would prefer a little variety. V was not marketed well enough. It is a great series but I knew very little about it and it seemed campy before I watched it. ABC: Do not give up on it. It could have a Star Trek type following. You will find that SciFi followers are very loyal. Keep up the good work but you got me hooked and then let me down by delaying the 5th episode. Work on your follow through. I presently have no way to know when you will start the series back up and even if you told me now I would probably forget since one of the comments suggested it will be 4 months. Luckily there is streaming. Good Luck.

Why in the world does it take so long for ABC to post the streaming video version of the show online each week? I don't even own a TV so this is my only way of watching television shows. My other favorite, FlashForward, seems to be posted online more quickly. But, really, I used to be a Video on Demand producer and we were able to post content almost in real-time online. And it's no fun to read about what's happening with a show when you haven't even seen the episode - it's a show spoiler. Please get with it to keep the enthusiasm going from your show's fans.

I want to start of by saying that the TV show so far is really good.I haven't ever been captivated by a show like I am right now with V. However, I have to say that ABC should make the latest episode available here at there sight immediately after they air. I had missed the latest episode and logged on here to there to try and watch it but it was not on. I had to watch it of utube. The quality really sucked on utube so next time I may not even attempt to watch it if its not here on their site. Sadly if I miss a show I'm sure that would spoil the whole thing for me and that would mean I would probably stop watching the whole thing, so in summery " ABC please make the latest showing of "V" available here on your site. Or you will risk loosing some of your biggest fans".

This V has done to the original campy V what the new Battlestar Galactica did to its predecessor--give it a real social commentary on our own current affairs and make the science more believable. I like the way the V's make promises like universal healthcare and "peace always" while having their very own secret evil agenda. The parallel to the current U.S. government will be complete if Anna wins the Nobel Peace Prize. It's interesting that we will have to wait a few months for the fifth episode--the Roman numeral for episode five being V.

Why did ABC bring such a wonderful engaging series to life and put us out to pasture for 4 months before it starts backup again. Did you want to lose all your viewers and or hope we will remember where we left off after 4 months of no episodes. This is so out of line with me any many others who love the show. its bad enough Syfi gave us Stargate Universe 90120 soap opera that is so horrible its beyond approach and now the only scifi show that's worth watching "V" is on hold because some big company in television seems not to know anything about television anymore.

It looks like Elizabeth Mitchell was destined to star in this series...her name on Lost was Juliet, and now she is playing the role of the original "Julie" in the old V series....AND her real name is Elizabeth, the name of the crossbreed character on the original V series. Just an observation...

The theme song sucks. Some kind of dying organ music. The commercials get you amped with the 'Uprising' song from Muse. Seems like you're trying to save a few bucks in royalties and hired a guy to play a couple notes on the organ instead and call that your theme song. Commercials are great - stick with that music. Work it in. I think it's what the show is missing.

Have you heard the theme for the original V? I think the new V's theme is made in the same manner. The only problem is that it is too short. I'n the original you heard the theme play as the letter V is displayed zooming out. Creepy.

Has it occurred to anyone that this story line may have an element of truth in it? I find it fascinating that "they" are bringing V back at this time with all that is going on in the world: the thrust for a "new world order", global warming, the global economy, the uncertainty of 2012 looming over us, etc. I challenge all of you to read below the lines and look deeper . . . what truth is being revealed? Are the Visitors/reptilians only fiction? What do you think?
