*V: The Final Battle* wraps up the original mini-series. This time, Diana is ruthless as she takes control in the mission to dominate Earth and no one will stop her.
Meanwhile, the humans are doing everything to save humanity, including Elizabth, the first human-alien hybrid. However, no one knows if this hybrid child is a blessing or a curse.
Just when things seem to be a dead end for humanity, the underground resistance accidentally uncover a miracle. They discover red dust, which is actually a fatal bacteria which the aliens have no immune defense.
Armed with this new biochemical, the resistance bravely battle Diana and her comrades.
Lots of unknown people here before they became big: Marc Singer, Michael Ironside, Robert Englund and more.

I can recall this show being shown in the mid eighties.I loved the original mini series and final battle.Then i saw some episodes from the series.I didnt watch every episode,i caught up with some though.I dont think i appreciated the series as much as i did the fist 2 mini series(The Original Mini Series and Final Battle),although i did enjoy the episodes i saw at the time.Its such a pity it didnt last as long as some of those other Sci-Fi shows.I found every episode entertaining,and at times very exciting.The series that came after the first 2 mini series got increasingly obvious that budgeting must have been a problem.But it must have been a very expensive series to make,as there seemed to be alot of characters,as well as the staging seemed lavish.One thing that amazes me is with all the technology that the aliens had,all they seemed to do was fight one another.Dianna seemed to want to be in complete control of eveything,but the resistance kept upsetting her plans.She was a nasty horrible and at times violent leader,but was also very beautiful...and i think im in love...thats right yet again.Even if she ate mice and birds and other live creatures,each to their own i say,im tolerant.This entire show was excellent.

Following the huge success of the miniseries V, NBC followed up a year later with the sequel to the saga, V: THE FINAL BATTLE. V: THE FINAL BATTLE begins not long after where V ended. Even after their successful attacks by resistance fighters, the Visitors are still in control of Earth and most of the world's population still believes the Big Lie: that the Visitors are here for purely peaceful purposes. In reality, the Visitors are giant reptiles who have come to drain the Earth of water and take away humans as food. The Resistance in L.A. has had the most success of any around the globe, but after a failed attack on a food processing plant, the group realizes they must go for a much larger mission.
Led by Mike Donovan (Marc Singer) and Julie Parish (Faye Grant) and assisted with the covert Fifth Column (Visitors who truly want peace) the L.A. Resistance hatches a plan to literally unmask the Visitors to the whole world. Other important events in the mini-series include the introduction of Ham Tyler (Michael Ironside), a former special operations operative that joins the Resistance and gives them the discipline, training, and weapons they need to become a major player in the fight for freedom; Robin has her baby, but "it" turns out to be twins; Julie is captured; and Mike's son, Sean is released from containment and returned to Earth.
I remember watching V: THE FINAL BATTLE when I was a kid. It was an amazing mini-series that captured my imagination. There are certain parts that I didn't quite understand as a kid (for instance, why is it that Robin's daughter, Elizabeth, has magical powers?) that still don't make sense today. Also, some of the effects that I was so impressed with as a youngster, such as the birth of Robin's twins (I had nightmares of that baby for weeks), seem downright cheesy and laughable now. However, overall V: THE FINAL BATTLE still holds up rather well as a piece of great science-fiction. There have been many technological advances since the series first aired, e.g. the Internet and cell phones, but despite that the allegorical components of the story (how would the U.S. turn from a democratic republic into a fascist state) hold up just as well today as they did in the early 1980s.
Anyone who has an interest in science fiction should see V and V: THE FINAL BATTLE.
