I used to love watching the 80s television show V. It was a pretty good show at the time. Do you remember how you felt the first time that you found out that were lizards that wanted to collect humans and keep them as food? Here’s a good article over at Mental Floss.

Man-Eating Space Lizards: When <em>V</em> Was a TV Smash

The Nazi invasion allegory was one of the highest-rated miniseries in television history, and the first to feature a leading character eating a guinea pig.

I think everyone watched V when it premiered. I still remember when Diane swallowed the guinea pig alive. It made me squirm. The show was one of a kind. The remake was a disaster. What were they thinking??
