Those aliens scared the ---steaming pile of meadow muffin--- out of me then....really must see it again....

I bought it a few months ago on i tunes. It's rare for it to be shown in re- runs here as well. The main plot served as a metaphor for the Holocaust and Nazi Germany, and was really quite deep. That was lost on me when I was a child, and I have more of an appreciation for it now.

The sort of hot lady downing mice.

That's it.

Same. Maybe some lizard faces mixed in??

You don't remember "Willy" (Robert Englund... AKA Freddy Krueger) Picking up a mouse by the tail, looking at it and saying the lines "mousey, mousey!" and then swallowing it whole?

hypernova:
I don't recall but watching a few bits and pieces here and there.  The lizard faces ring a bell, but that's about it.

Just watched the clip.  Looks pretty decent.  Was that Kyle Chandler?  If so, he seems to be reallllly trying to make it in some sort of series.  Also noticed the woman doctor from Lost whose name eludes me.  Hope she's not ditching Lost.

There were two? I only recall one. Ran for a week or something.

Hoopz:
The first was in 83 and was called V.  The follow up was in 84 and was called V: The Final Battle.  It was at least as good as the original.  Perhaps if you saw it again, you'd realize that you saw them both.  They do seem to run together because they were written very well, same actors/characters, etc.

Dexter:
Remember it well. The sort of hot lady downing mice was Diana IIRC. Great series, especially in the 80s when we only had 5-6 tv channels here.

Anybody remember the girl having the twin babies, one human/alien (elizabeth??) and the little green lizard?
