EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW: The V Files Talks With Executive Producer Steve Pearlman..

3

Executive Producer of V, Steve Pearlman, was kind enough to answer a few questions from The V Files and fans, in a quick little interview..

The V Files: What are the challenges that you encounter in producing a show that not only is based off a previous program, but is a sci – fi story that incorporates CGI and green screen effects??
Steve Pearlman: Whenever you take on a legend, as we’ve done with V, you need to honor the source material but also figure out a way to go beyond what was done before.. So it’s more of a reboot than a remake.. There are certain iconic images from the Original V that we have paid homage to, taken to a new level, tried to top, without just repeating what was already done..

Obviously new technology has given us the opportunity to do a lot that they were not able to do in the Original Series..We have a lot of special effects and visual effects in the New Series that are state of the art – no one else is doing this kind of work with this kind of volume in series TV..

TVF: Fans are fearing that we won’t see a Season Three, and that the Season Two Finale will leave fans with a cliff hanger, due to ratings ( Which are still pretty good ) and ABC’s decisions..
SP: We’re obviously hoping for a Third Season.. We have deals in place for the Cast, and out sets and sound stages are still there waiting for us.. The Studio is actually spending a lot of money protecting for the possibility of a Third Season.. But as with any show, it all comes down to ratings.. Are people watching?? Facebook chatter is great, and DVR recordings is great, but the one thing that makes the biggest impression to a Network is waking up the next morning and seeing that the overnight ratings have gone up..

As for a cliffhanger, out Season Two Finale definitely wraps up several stories that we’ve been telling throughout the Season, but we wouldn’t be doing our jobs if we didn’t leave the audience wanting more.. So yes, there are a number of cliffhangers at the end of the Season.. Hopefully enough people will be watching by then that a Third Season is a foregone conclusion..

TVF: Fans of the Original are getting excited that Marc Singer ( Mike Donovan from the Original ) will be Guest Starring in the Finale.. If V gets a Season Three, will we see a scene between Jane Badler and Marc Singer??
SP: In the world of V, I suppose anything is possible..

TVF: Talking about Guest Stars, if V gets a Season Three, will fans get a chance to see any other Original cast?? Someone like Bobby Englund ( Willie ), Michael Ironside ( Ham Tyler ) or Frank Ashmore ( Martin / Phillip )??
SP: Jane and Marc were great additions to the show this Season, partly because of the tribute it paid to the Original Series and to honor the loyal fanbase, but also because they were great in their new roles in the New Series.. For us, it’s less about a ” stunt “ and more about casting the right person for the role.. Could we see other actors from the Original Series?? Absolutely, if it feels right..

TVF: Is there anything you can tease fans about the remaining episodes of Season Two??
SP: Every episode between now and the end of the Season is like a mini – movie.. We go to the Vatican in tonight’s episode.. Next week we have a Gala Celebration in NYC.. The week after is a hostage crisis, and the week after that Erica and Hobbs travel to Hong Kong and Tokyo to seek answers to questions about what the V‘s are actually doing here.. And in the Season Finale, we reveal the Full Monty – The whole lizard.. There’s a lot jam – packed into 10 episodes.. And we’ve got a lot more stories to tell.. But you gotta keep watching!!

The V Files would like to thank Steve for taking time out to answer a few fan questions..

Be sure to tune in tonight for Episode 2.04 ” Unholy Alliance “ at 9pm on ABC..
