i remember being excited to see this show when it was first run... glued to the set and immersing myself into the story :). great memories of that time in my life ❤️

This is actually the promo for the Re-Airing of the original mini-series, not the promo that aired the night of May 1st, 1983. I know because I have this recording on VHS. Obviously you can tell since it states "Relive the Excitement that is V". Awesome promo, of course, no doubt. But just to clarify. Pretty sure this was late summer '83... but I could be wrong and they re-ran it prior to the premiere of Final Battle in '84.

I remember exactly what I doing while watching the first episode on 5-1-83. I was 11 years old, and I spent the entire two hours, coloring a pair of fake Vans shoes that I had. It's funny how you can pinpoint memories like that, but I can't remember what I ate for dinner last night

Kenneth Johnson had intended to frame this for widescreen viewing. It's well done as the 4:3 ratio CRT screens of 1983 just make it look like a bunch of medium or wide shots. Compare this to The Final Battle and you don't see as many heads cropped off by matte bars. It also makes scenes like the close-up skull when the mothership appears far more creepy (and poignant), noting the skull isn't cropped off at all.

Stretching the picture out to widescreen isn’t cool.
