ABC has confirmed to The V Files about staff additions, and roles on the show.. ABC has hired a couple of new producers to work on V: The New Series, and word is they have quite an impressive background.. John Wirth and Natalie Chaidez ( Staff writers and producers on the sadly – defunct Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles ) are the newest additions to the V staff.. The move comes in the midst of shakeups behind the scenes, including the recent decision to replace showrunner Scott Peters with Chuck Executive Producer Scott Rosenbaum on the eve of V‘s premier..

An ABC spokesman has confirmed that Wirth will serve as a ” Consulting Producer “ for V, while Chaidez will be taking on the same role she undertook on Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles as ” Co – Executive..” Sources say the two are expected to be a huge boost to the show’s writing team, further improving storylines for the program.. With all the changes that the network’s been making for V, it seems as though they’re really betting on letting it last long..
But if you’re still not convinced at Wirth and Chaidez’s addition to the staff, how about we take a look at their credentials! Even though they come from a canceled TV series, they still deserve some applause for their previous work..
Aside from being known for writing the acclaimed Sarah Connor episode ” The Turk,” John Wirth has been toiling behind the scenes for Ghost Whisperer and Nash Bridges.. He has also been part of The District and Picket Fences..
As for Natalie Chaidez, she became a Co – Executive producer for Heroes‘ first season and writing a couple more episodes.. So can she bring a little of that magic to bare on V? She’s also worked on Judging Amy and New York Undercover..
However, ABC is still testing the waters here.. An announcement from the network, reveals that V will be an episode shy of its original planned numbers.. The total order was supposed to be 13 hours, but it’s been reduced to 12..
