V’s Ratings Rise, And So Does Our Interest In A 2nd Season

 

The 14% rise in ratings for ABC’s V last night may make that show’s return next season more likely according to the Hollywood Reporter’s Live Feed blog. Much like Fox’s choice between Human Target and Lie To Me (although both shows ended up getting renewed today, much to the disappointment of we gladiatorial television industry watchers), the alphabet network is rumored to be faced with a choice between renewing the revamped alien invasion series or the lower-rated-yet-cheaper-to-make FlashForward. There is one good reason to hope that V does get a second year: A promise that we’d finally get to see the lizards in their own skins in an early episode.
