Alias Options

[*Kathleen*]

If you didn't know...it's my recent obsession. My uncle introduced me to the first season over the summer because he's as obsessed with her as I am with Johnny Depp. So then he sent me the second season. He's going to send me the third season soon and I should be right on time to see the latest season. I love this show. I LOVE IT. I'm glad there's no way to make a reality TV show out of this. *Knocks on wood* At least, that I can think of...

I believe it's still the same writers. But being that most of them are also writing for Lost... it seems they're losing their focus. And JJ apparently is still trying to get his other show starrin Greg Grunberg on TV. If that happens... Alias is even more doomed.

Back in the day, I was an S/V shipper. But then season three came along and I jumped ship. I'm now a converted Sarkney, even if it'll never happen. Vaughn in season three was just... UGH. He kept messing with Sydney's head... in Korea he tells her he loves her and she's the only one for him, they get back home and he runs right back to Lauren because her father is dead. Sure, he needed to comfort her, but did comforting her need to include jumping into bed with her? No. And now I just don't like Vaughn.

And I actually don't like Sydney very much either. She's too stubborn and she gets on my nerves. I actually only watch the show for Jack and Sark. And now that Sark is just a recurring character...

Hopefully the first three episodes aren't how the rest are going to be. I need some old faces to return and some questions answered, or at least have last season addressed. And Vaughn's "last year SUCKED" doesn't quite do it for me.

As for Irina, JJ should have contracted her for more than one season. I seriously don't think she'll be back. But I guess he has hope because he obviously left room for her return later on. But Irina is such an integral part of the show, not having her in season three is pretty much why it sucked so bad. I mean, c'mon. We knew about Irina way back in the beginning of the first season, long before we even saw her... countless episodes were devoted to her. It may be sacrilegious to recast her, but I'd rather have a recast than have the show sucking. Just write it so that Irina had to have surgery to change her appearance for protection. I'd believe that, it's Alias.

And reading the titles of the upcoming episodes... I'm just like, what the heck. They're so different from the first three seasons' titles.


allen, it sucks that you started watching season three first. You should really watch the first two... now they were awesome.

You know, hearing the actors and JJ hype up this season, I really thought it was going to be awesome. So far, I've been let down. This used to be a smart show and I guess that's the thing I miss most about it. Self containment works for shows like CSI because they've got lots of dead bodies and murders to solve and they only need an episode for each scenario. But Alias has/had a purpose.
