A few mystery elements they have not made clear yet but that will eventually need logical explanations:

1. The skinning scene made pretty clear that the Vs feel pain in the human skin, so is the human skin a mask or actually part of their body? The "skin him" comment implies that skinning the V would kill him, but maybe it just a painful punishment that takes you back to lizard-only status.

2. Why are they here? In the original series, it was to take the humans as food and the water for their planet.

3. If their technology is so overpowering and killing humans is the goal, why all the fake nicey-nice? Why not just a smash-and-grab?

4. Why do they need so many more ships? Warehouse space? Are they colonizing?

Also, I really hope the budget for the spring episodes includes some full-lizard action.

Is this show anywhere on American cable?

We're about to start re-watching the entire run of the series -- one season a month until the Season Six premiere in February. Season One Disc One shipped from Netflix today!

Word. I disagree with just about every item on the list.

What about the president's daughter getting kidnapped, the president stepping down temporarily, the vice president passing on becoming active VP (is that how it worked; I forget), and the speaker of the house becoming acting president for about three days?

At the least, you could have made a funny about the US attacking a country that doesn't actually exist (Qmar) or the deputy White House counsel having an office in the basement boiler room (and being a hot blond).

And it's Josh Lyman.

Now I think bringing DioGuardi onto the show last season may have been in some part defensive. The show won't offer Paula Abdul anything close to the Seacrest deal if they renew her at all.

She's the worst by far. I mean, do they need MORE guest judges than Tabatha/Napoleon, Adam Shankman, Mia Michaels, Little C and Debbie Allen?

Shane Sparks on the show tonight? Talking and everything? I stand corrected.

Wade Robson has choreographed for SYTYCD and performed on DWTS.

Also, Shane Sparks' no longer appears on SYTYCD, but he has choreographed routines each of the last two seasons.

Can a magazine jump the shark? Apparently, yes.

Should have started with: "This is really stupid and a big letdown, but...."
