Fans have been missing the ABC alien invasion drama V, which ran for two seasons before being cancelled in 2011. The series starred Elizabeth Mitchell as Erica Evans, an FBI with suspicions about a race of aliens who made first contact with earth. Though the aliens, led by Anna (Morena Baccarin) appeared to be friendly, they were in reality looking to take over the world.

The series ended on a note of desperation: Erica's son Tyler (Logan Huffman) was killed, while the Visitors made a massive move to enslave humanity. It was a dark ending for the series, but according to Elizabeth Mitchell, season 3 was going to bring hope.

Mitchell, who currently stars on NBC's Revolution, revealed that she knew the direction of the planned third season -- and it was a positive one: "I was very sad, because I was told that [the third season] was going to be, we were going to start to win," Mitchell told Assignment X. "And I was told how that was going to happen. And not a day goes by that I don?t meet somebody who says, 'What was going to happen? I missed it, I didn?t see it.' I can?t believe how many fans there were out there. They talk about it every day. So yeah, we were going to win ? just so you know."

Though a fan campaign was staged to bring the series back on another network -- the CW and TNT were campaigned the hardest -- it doesn't look like the series will ever conclude. As mentioned above, Mitchell now stars on Revolution, while Morena Baccarin has a starring role on Homeland. But it is nice to have confirmation that, had it continued, V would have had a happy ending.

we need moar sci-fi !!

and for some reasons majority of them got axed.

I find that a lot of Sci-fi shows have the same problem, they have a great premise but they keep attempting to reach the family group. Terra Nova and Revolution spring to mind as examples. Great ideas, but the stories had to be for all ages. If they had been darker or more mature (like the reboot of BSG, for example) they would have my attention.

V didn't suffer from this problem though. I just didn't get on with it. I think it was the pacing that killed it for me.
