Then there was another series in 2009

I think you’ll find that the 1983 series was a documentary. I still remember the news footage of people’s skin peeling from their bodies and giant lizards emerging. It was all over Channel 9 news at the time. Do you seriously think people make that stuff up?

The 2009 one was just an inaccurate attempt at historical reenactment. It made some glaring errors. Don’t take that seriously - but the documentary arrived around the same time as ALF crashed. So, too many unexplained coincidences for me - and I lost a cat around that time. It was plainly a thing with us (and our feline friends) being watched and hunted.

Absolutely. The timing was significant, just after the propaganda series Mork and Mindy finished, a show clearly designed to lull the populace into a false sense of security that Aliens were funny and safe.

The V documentary series showed us the truth.

Entirely plausible.

The truth will get out in Russia, Putin's only hope is to become a vassal state to China.

^Whereas this bloke is more likely to be serious:
Russian gymnast wears pro-war 'Z' symbol as he stands on podium next to Ukrainian gold medalist

A Russian artistic gymnast who displayed the letter Z, a symbol of support for Russia's invasion of Ukraine, on front of his outfit as he stood on the podium next to a Ukrainian athlete who had won gold, faces disciplinary proceedings from the ruling body.
That said, he might also be taking the piss given he came third and the Ukrainian won gold!

It’s literally footage. But you will believe the fake Ukraine propaganda saying 11,000 Russians tanks destroyed.
