V Is Bad In Oh So Many Ways

07 Nov 2009 08:58:56 PST

Written by Daniel
Unlike BSG, there is reason to believe that what undertone the show does have is meant to be extremely conservative. Via NewMajority FrumForum, Asylum.com has a few observations: 3. The whole thing could have been lifted from the minds of Glenn Beck and Lou Dobbs.

The show will still premiere in March, following NBC's coverage of the Winter Olympics, and will still get a promotional push during the Games. There's still a chance that "Day One" could be picked up to series (a la "The 4400" or "Battlestar Galactica") if it does well in the ratings, but cu...
