Hmm actually I checked, and it did become a series for a bit. My bad. The original was a mini series though.

The miniseries ran for 200 minutes and was successful enough to spawn a sequel, V: The Final Battle, which was meant to conclude the story, and a television series in 1984?1985 that revived it. Johnson left V during The Final Battle and went on to work on other science fiction shows, like Alien Nation. Perhaps as a result, the sequel and TV series had less of an emphasis on historical allegory and complex characters and their inter-relations, and was more action-oriented.
