V for Vatican!
So I will admit, I got a bit bored with the latest “V” and probably missed some things. I still have not gotten used to or even like the Chad Decker character, so when he’s featured too much, I tend to zone out.
I did find it amusing when Anna blackmailed the Catholic church into silencing priests speaking out about the Visitors. However that’s only one church. How will she stop them all?
Tyler trashing Father Jack’s office/church and spray painting “V” in it was interesting, a different twist from the original where “V” was to mean victory and was used against the Visitors.
With Anna being successful and getting the church to throw out priests who provoke violence or speak against her, it looks like Jack is in big trouble. I am getting the feeling they are leading toward making Jack available to be with Erica romantically.
It looks like Erica’s boss at the FBI might be bad, as he’s assigning a new partner to her and it looks like he wants to keep track of her and what she’s really up to.
The final scenes with Diana and the Priest were awesome. I wish they’d use her more. I figured the soul would be their salvation, not their undoing, as Anna thinks. By the time she’s done with Earth, most humans won’t want to help the good Vs.
The previews of next week look interesting as The Fifth Column attempts to assassinate Anna at a public event? It seems like a play on the old show where they tried to reveal the truth about The Visitors live on TV during a press event.
While I found it difficult at first to be suspicious of Erica’s boss (I mean, he was the best Mike Horton on Days), I think he’s up to something. But I’m wondering if for the moment they only think that she’s romantically interested and not 5th Column. I have to admit, they’re doing a better job getting me interested in the story, but maybe that’s because I’m not comparing it to FlashForward at every turn.
