	Differential current detector in cable television trunk amplifier station - Patent 4412245
		It is desirable to continue to pass television signals on the trunk cable when active elements of circuits for amplification, filtering and AGC in the amplification line of a particular station malfunctions.
		The offset 115 for V+ is caused by the Q5 base-emitter junction voltage.

	MovieFreak.com - "V - The Complete Series" DVD Review
		V: The Complete series is a double-sided three disc set that includes 19 episodes of V the television series that started in the fall of 1984 after the huge success of the two part mini-series V and V: The Final Battle.
		V the television series only lasted for nineteen episodes and there is a definite reason for that, the episodes are extremely weak and the series just gets worse and worse with each episode.
		The inevitable V the television series followed and it is only enjoyable (and you would definitely have to be in the right mood) for two campy performances and for laughs at the overly bad acting, horrible special effects, and terrible dialogue.

	DVD Review - V: The Original Miniseries (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
		Series creator and director Kenneth Johnson came up with the original storyline and it was only after a meeting with television executives that it was decided to depict the fascists as aliens bent on invasion.
		I would have liked to see some of the very original promotional materials used to advertise "V" presented on the DVD as they were quite memorable and were a key ingredient in the success of the miniseries but, given the excellent commentary track and nice featurette, I really can’t complain.
		As a result, "V: The Final Battle" (I’m ignoring the awful weekly television series that soon followed) lacked the magic of the original creation and, while still entertaining in its own right, should really be considered as a wholly separate story.

	Alien Nation: Complete Series
		While many television networks would have balked at a series that dealt with bigotry, racism, homophobia and the holocaust these topics are easier to present if set before a backdrop of aliens on earth.
		Television would never have accepted such a plot unless it was cloaked in science fiction.
		There was a series of television movies that resolved the season one cliff hanger and tied up other loose ends but this was yet another show cut down before its time.

	V (TV series) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		It was followed by a three-part 1984, V: The Final Battle, introducing Michael Ironside, and a TV series, V (sometimes referred to as V: The Series) during the 1984-1985 TV season.
		Series creator Kenneth Johnson has said that the story was inspired by the 1935 novel It Can't Happen Here by Sinclair Lewis, but a quick check at the library will show that several scenes from the original TV pilot were lifted directly from the Bertolt Brecht play The Private Life of the Master Race.
		Later, throughout the TV series, the Resistance Network's TV news bulletins report stories of erstwhile enemies uniting in common cause against the alien occupiers, such as fl and white South Africans (the series was produced when South Africa was still under apartheid).

	HIGHLANDER TV SERIES - SEASON ONE DVD
		A thin fantasy of empowerment conceit (junior Nietzsche) that has spawned five feature films, two television series, what look to be two animated series, and a collectible card game, it's a franchise with legs that has the distinction of crafting its own simplistic mythology from tired loam.
		Like almost any television series, however, the shows do get better as the season progresses--a lot of that having to do, probably, with character introductions and premise establishment handled in the first few episodes, and Lambert only making a cameo in the first.
		The series is sort of misogynistic it goes without saying, but the casting of Tess as a sub-literate victim/hysterical siren is frankly too hilarious to overly offend.

	Television program - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A television series that is intended to air a finite number of episodes is usually called a miniseries or serial (although the latter term also has other meanings).
		A television movie ("made-for-TV" movie) is a movie that is initially aired on television rather than being released in theatres or direct-to-video, although many successful television movies are later released on video.
		On especially successful series, the producers sometimes call a halt to a series on their own like The Cosby Show and end it with a concluding episode which sometimes is a big production called a series finale.

		The initial series was a huge ratings success in the US in 2000.

		D package of V: The Complete Series, featuring all 19-episodes of the original television series V for the first time ever in a 3-disc DVD collector's set.
		Note that the episode "Breakout" was actually supposed to be the 3rd one shown in the series, but was originally pulled because it was considered too violent for the audience, which consisted of many younger viewers.
		It was first broadcast when the series was in network reruns, and so it is "correctly" placed on the DVD set in it's actual "airdate" order.

		Most episodes of the series opened with a news report from Howard K. Smith reporting for the "Freedom Network" to show the viewers the "grand scope" of the war by revealing what is taking place in other parts of the world beyond where these characters live.
		Considered the best episode of the Television Series, this episode runs non-stop where as numerous events take place, that other shows would have spent several episodes to do.
		The Leader's envoy Charles would be killed an episode or two after that, although his death introduced another envoy, Philip, the twin brother of Martin from the mini-series and first episode of the television series.

	X-Entertainment - V: The Original Mini-Series Movie Review.
		The series kicks off with Donovan videotaping some intense grenade battle between two warring cultural stereotypes, but it was all a red herring to distract viewers: soon, up in the skies, there they be: flying saucers, and a whole lot of 'em.
		This was one of the less thought-out scenes of the series, as Caleb survives for a good minute or so stuck in the freeze chamber right after we see another guy lose an arm just by touching the god damn door.
		One of the great things about the series was how multilayered the characters were -- there were all sorts of double-crossings and that kinda junk, with some aliens acting as heroes, and some humans acting worse than any of the Visitors could.

		Their tyrannical rule gradually pushes mankind to the brink of interstellar war, but the Visitors, who have the strength of numbers on their side, appear unperturbed by the escalating hostilities, even maintaining their friendly facade while preparing for the mass genocide of Earth.
		Although the plot of V works as a straightforward narrative, it also serves as an effective commentary on racial prejudice.
		And despite the many years that have passed since the miniseries first premiered, the mesmerizing beauty of certain shots can still bring a trickle of wonder to jaded eyes, proving once again that moments of beauty can often be found even in the midst of crisis.

		At this point, it is obvious that the V television series is definitely not being taken into account, although the TV series begins a year after the end of

		Also included are the unfilmed scripts for episode 20, "The Attack," and J. Michael Straczynski’s pilot for "V" : The Next Chapter — "Rebirth." Finally, all the novels produced by Pinnacle Books and Tor books are considered grace, except for those elements of the first novel which contradict the filmed parts of TOS and TFB.
		The comics published by DC Comics were considered, but ultimately dropped because of their contradictions to the series, a general lack of quality, and overall ignorance by many fans.
		This project developed as a response to the lack of new V material in the last decade, as well as a response to the lack of continuity between other fan fiction.

		At the time I worked at a local grocery store and, as fate would have it, I was usually scheduled when V the series was on.
		Whenever I found articles about "V", the series follow up was always dismissed as crass exploitation of the franchise.
		This undermines the drama of the series and cheapens the series.

		Whenever they'd advertise V: The Series, it'd come with this ominous voice-over that made me think the "V" stood for "Voing To Kill Me." Come to think of it, I don't think any television advertisement ever frightened me as much as those having anything to do with V.
		The story would be continued in V: The Final Battle, an even longer follow-up mini-series that answers many of these questions and asked enough new ones to warrant a V television series.
