Re: 2x03
I find it hard ignoring the whole reptile-under-human-skin thing. It's just totally unbelieveable and that's what's bothering me. Bringing the entire thing closer to the surface ddoesn't help the mayor flaws in the idea.
Well, that was the basic idea on the original. But in the 1980's the "human" skin was not genetically linked to the reptile bellow and they would be seen "stripping" of their human enclosures and growing, in a technology akin to the raxacoricofallapatorians but without the need for a cadaver's skin.
I am liking the modern twist in which the Vs are some kind of dying breed. I don't even remember the reason for the invasion on the original series, something to do with water I guess.

they came to steal the water and use humans as food and canonfodder for a war against some other alienrace
Re: 2x03
Yeah, I did it.
i don't get this.
you did what?
Re: 2x03
Why would you build a suit that would kill you if you took it off...
Because they plan to stay... or at least for awhile. (Some have been there for awhile). It's a fair assumption that for the suit to provide what they need to survive (phosphoreus stuff and what not), it's engineered in a way that if removed at least partly, it kills its host.
Speculations (fill the gap with whatever you think)
What we know:
There's no other planet in range to ensure their survival (Anna said that).
They've been among humans for more than we know.
They harvest humans either for tests or to strip a part of their DNA to make place for something else. Tyler (the son) is the result of that and apparently is a great deal of importance to Anna.
It was said that Anna can't give birth anymore (I think) and that their only hope is Lisa now. So I doubt it would be to create some sort of new V to be able to survive ... something. They are too proud and hate too much humans to fall down to their level.
I would probably go for the creation of a subspecies of V and humans to create an army of soldiers to fight off a war against X. Or an army of slaves or a giant pile of McNuggets for the Vs.
And besides, there are gazillion Vs waiting not far. These poor green buggers have to eat at some point.
Pete : Well... you... you told me to investigate ok ? So... she's unarmed.
