I’m all for making a dollar, but in this case I would let sleeping dogs lie…
From the Hollywood Reporter:
The network has given a pilot order to a new take on NBC’s 1980s miniseries about an alien invasion.
Meanwhile, NBC’s comedy pilot “Lost in the ’80s,” originally picked up as director-contingent, has firmed up its order with the hire of “Confessions of a Shopaholic” helmer P.J. Hogan.
Written on spec by Scott Peters, the new “V” will center on a female Homeland Security agent. Peters is exec producing with HDFilms principal Jason Hall.
Two ABC pilots picked up so far this pilot season — “V” and “The Witches of Eastwick” — are reimaginings of 1980s titles. Both are produced by Warner Bros. TV.
