See, I did watch the original 80s V, so I remember it with a fond, nostalgic sense of kitsch, and didn't want to watch the new one. But I was lured in by Morena Baccarin, Alan Tudyk, and the woman who played Juliet on Lost, because I like all of them as actors. But I'm still not particularly sure what I think of the show. Like you said, it's mildly attractive, but sort of blank.
