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.

    • Google's new hand-wave reCAPTCHA can be bypassed with a stock photo

      By Ivan Jenic · Posted

      Google's new hand-wave reCAPTCHA can be bypassed with a stock photo by Ivan Jenic Image: Screenshot Google is testing a new reCAPTCHA method that asks you to wave at your camera to prove you're human. So, besides solving puzzles and reading distorted text, you can now use your computer’s camera to pass the verification test. When the hand gesture verification is triggered, your browser asks for camera access and prompts you to perform a simple gesture, like a wave or an open palm. Google says it records a short video of the movement and uses AI to extract 21 hand-knuckle coordinates to complete the verification process. The video is then immediately deleted, and Google swears it doesn't keep it. The process alone can be uncomfortable for people who wouldn’t want their biometric data, which hand scans technically qualify as, recorded. But it gets even more nuanced, as early testers discovered that the new hand-waving reCAPTCHA can be passed with a simple stock image. A user on X tested the new challenge using a stock image of a hand fed through OBS Virtual Camera, and it passed. I wanted to verify it, so I tried the same thing. It took me a few tries and a few stock images, but in the end, I was also able to pass the test. I simply had to readjust the stock image of a generic person waving inside OBS, and Google’s mechanism registered it as a legitimate hand gesture. Once again, it didn’t even have to be a video or an AI-generated hand animation. Given the simplicity of the process, the entire action can be automated in minutes. All it takes is a simple Python script to render the new reCAPTCHA method obsolete. And it doesn’t even have to be an AI bot, which is usually used for solving puzzles and other verification methods. The new reCAPTCHA method is still in its early phase, and Google will, hopefully, update its AI to at least reject still images. However, this incident, combined with users’ initial skepticism about Google’s practices regarding user data, likely won’t make too many people wave at the camera anytime soon.

    • This Dell 27 inch 4K 120Hz IPS monitor is really cheap after a very long time

      By Malisk · Posted

      I have this one and it's great, also paired with a Mac. I like the white back aesthetics of it and ability to have all your wireless usb peripherals under a clean lid. 4K @ 120 Hz and 65W usb-c charging is not bad even at its typical price point. The U series is probably better for commercial photo work though; IIRC one reason this one is priced in a different bracket is because it's not calibrated and verified for optimal color accuracy. Not something I think of in daily use, coding, and light gaming though.
