V

Erica Evans (Elizabeth Mitchell)

In the opening episode of "V," FBI agent Erica Evans discovers that her partner of seven years is really an alien undercover agent. Since then, her world has only gotten more complicated. "Erica's on a mission, which is always fun to watch, and ... moreshe's under tremendous pressure," explains Mitchell. "She's the messiest character I've played in a while, and it's great fun. I don't know if I like her or I don't like her, I just know she's struggling." And struggle she does as she goes rogue with a Resistance cell while her son gets cozy with the enemy. In the words of executive producer Pearlman, "Anna is the mother of the V's and Erica metaphorically is the mother of humanity and that's the core battle of the show." To your corners, ladies.
