Collaborators (V TV series)

This is a list of Collaborators from the V science fiction franchise.

The 1983 television miniseries V, its sequel, and the subsequent weekly series portrays an alien invasion of Earth. During this fictional invasion several humans are shown collaborating with the aliens to take over the planet similar to the collaborators with the Nazis. The characters are mostly ignorant of the truth behind the aliens' plans.

The original miniseries' sequel, V: The Second Generation, dubs these collaborators as Players.

Daniel Bernstein, played by David Packer, is the son of Stanley and Lynn Bernstein and grandson of Abraham, a Holocaust survivor. Nothing much is known about him before the events of the original miniseries, except that he has little or no friends and often got fired from his numerous jobs. All of it would change weeks after the Visitors' arrival, as their creation of a youth corps entices him to join. However, the power of being in such a group goes to his head and he alienates his family as well. He reports his family (leading to his grandfather's death) and the Maxwells to the Visitors, captures Julie in the first episode of The Final Battle's and is personally responsible for the death of Resistance member Ruby Engles in the second episode. He is eaten (off-screen) by the Visitors in the third episode after the rebels frame him in the capture of Brian.

Doctor Corley Walker, played by Don Starr, is a widely respected medical scientist and Nobel laureate who workes at the Los Angeles Medical Center. He first appears in V: The Final Battle when he denounces Kristine Walsh over her work as the Visitors' spokeswoman, citing references to Nazi Propaganda Minister Joseph Goebbels and the Nuremberg trials. However, the Visitors witness this act of defiance and kidnap him. He undergoes the conversion process and is brainwashed, resulting in him expressing a more favorable attitude towards Walsh. He is not seen in the series again after the hospital raid in the first episode.

Eleanor Dupres is the mother of Mike Donovan, grandmother of Sean, and wife of the wealthy and influential Arthur Dupres, whom she kept manipulating to suit her expensive needs. She is incredibly shallow, superficial, selfish, violent when pressured (even trying to shoot her own son) and in deep denial on views she couldn't accept. At the start of the original miniseries, Eleanor maneuvers to have Arthur secure his plant for producing the Visitors' special chemical. She later cultivates a relationship with Visitor security chief Steven, which results in Arthur leaving her. Her association with the Visitors leads to the capture of Sancho Gomez and the revival of Sean from stasis. She would die at the hands of Steven in the last episode of The Final Battle after claiming to be his hostage.
