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!

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.

And another issue i have. Why doesn't the show air the invasion from other parts of the world? I getting sick and tired of looking at Americans. I want to see if the Arabs are accepting these V's. And I want to see how the V's react to self exploding humans.

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.

As a dedicated member of the resistance I would have to say that it would be a real twist if they really came in peace...however since from what I can tell Anna uses something called *bliss* to control her own people, a drug to keep them happy...and under her control, and seeks to control our world as well. I am wondering if the magical healing is a result of *bliss* and she is going to use it to make our world sell its soul to her...

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.

I understamd were you are coming from x caliber. I know yoiu dont get why the 'V''s Call them selfs that. however to be fair to the wrighters this is a remake of an old show. The writers of this show are not responsible for the name the "V'. FYI. By the way props to ABC for putting the latest showing of V on thier sight. I had to wach of utube the day I missed it and the quality sucked. Lets just hope that ABC is smart enough to put the latest showing of thier bigest hit show right now on the web site for fans to see. I'm sure thier spponsores woulden't like hearing that people are watching the show comercial free off of utube because ABC (for whatever reasone) is not puting them on thier site.

Yes. I understand that they're not responsible for the term, but this is a remake to revive and improve on what was done in the past and bring relevance of the franchise to today's society. They, the writers, should've known better. I mean, seriously, why remake something if you can't improve on the original? BTW, I was a major fan of the original mini-series. Both of them. so I know about the history of the show and the term "V." As I've saaid though, I am really enjoying the show, just that one 1 nit-pick.

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). ^.^

I was a huge fan of the original V tv movies and series like many others here. I dont often like remakes, but I have to admit that this is a great new adaptation to it. The only thing that I didnt like is that the writers seem to be rushing the story line a bit. In the original series, they build up to the evil plot of the visitors. There is great suspicion from anthropologists, and others from the scientific community that the visitors are not what they appear to be. In the long run, the visitors try to turn the tables on the scientific community and fabricate a global conspiracy against the visitors, prompting the visitors and law enforcement to declare marshall law and crack down on anyone who is a scientist or free thinker. I like the original approach here and I hope that Kenneth Johnson includes this is upcoming episodes.

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,

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.

Hello. I am from Spain, and I make the web of spanish fans of the "V" ( www.v-spain.ya.st ) but with nick "MikeDonovan23". In Spain there are opinions of all kinds, detractors because the pilot goes very rapidly and the people in favor, because it is spectacular and necessary that the identity of " The Visitors " is revealed, because they were already between us. I have had opportunity to see it thanks to Internet and with spanish subtitles, but in Spain we will see the 4 first chapters, in Spanish, from December 27 for the channel deprived of television " TNT ". And you can see that this channel has done 3 videos, where the new Visitors, land in Spanish cities. You can see this looking in YouTube, the above mentioned channel: "canaltnt" or looking " V: prepÔrate para la invasión ". They are good, very good. Greetings from Spain! ;) Pd: We are of peace, always :D

I think that your movie viewer is a piece of trash. I have three machines (2 running XP and on running Vista 64), I can't even get your player to download and install on my Vista machine and while it installs on my XP machines, the video is choppy or nonexistent.Why you refuse to use an industry standard like flash is incomprehensible.

...and another small observation...when Elizabeth Mitchell was on Lost, who was she seen with most of the time? Jack! Now she's paired with another Jack (although I doubt there will be any romantic involvement, since he is a Priest - or will there?)

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?

Glad to see the show but its plot is way too predictable. Humans and aliens so unevenly matched. The underdog thing is such a boring safe plot mechanism. How about giving humanity something over the aliens-- match the two more closely; mix it up. That way when there is an enounter, you won't know who will come out on top. Now, its the aliens win, week after week. We all know is a slow build to human victory. So predictable.

That's the whole setup for the series. The Vs are supposed to look enticing. If this series takes similar turns as the original, then things could get interesting (and probably won't be as campy).

tripperlane

great post , but i think that there is more to what the visitors want than what we have come to expect , and i think that being the underdog to begin with is the only way to build to something speacial, i dont think that we would be equal in any sence and thats what will make this show more exciting is that we dont know if they can do or win any fight , there are no promises that we will win or even succeed in this show and that is what is great about it , they have the technology to wipe us out but they dont or wont just yet , let it unfold ,

Hi, I really like this new show. I remember watching the original 1983 version also. I try not to get too involved in shows on ABC, because this network cancels shows with a blink of an eye!. I loved the shows "Pushing Daisies", "Samantha Who", and more recent "Hank", and "Eastwick" ABC didn't give the new shows this season a fair chance! Some shows take a while to build an audience, I really, really loved "Eastwick". I had gotten hooked on it . But then ABC yanks it off. They have had shows in the past that were slow to gain rating, but eventually gained a large audience!! Please bring back "Hank"& "Eastwick".

Hello... I thought that they moved a little quick into people finding out that they are reptiles... I thought that they would be a little slower to that point. Jumping weeks of time didn't make a lot of sense. I'm hoping that the future episodes will give the audience more of a chance to enjoy it for a little while. All that they offer would be an incredible situation to be in... Even if in the end they are out to eat us. At least as an audience we would have had a chance to build some of our own devotion to the Visitors.

Well, now, everyone's assuming that they really are out to get us. It's clear that there is deception on their part, but that isn't proof that their goal is to destroy people! A twist of plot could be that they are actually trying to 'protect' us from something.

I think there should be a simple way for the resistance to discover who is a reptile. I propose a simple infrared scanning thermometer. The invaders must have a core body temperature different than humans. You could scan someone from a distance with one of these and identify an alien immediately. Or you could check their rectal temperature if you found them sleeping soundly.
