Did anyone see the season premier? I saw a crucial part! Oh my word!

I saw it... it was probably the weakest of the five season premieres, but it could be an interesting season now that the cast has suddenly shifted.

I didn't get to see it, only the ads. :mecry: (Hopefully my brother taped it.)

I totally love it. The first two seasons were awesome. I didn't like season 3 that much. Four improved and 5 hasn't been too bad. It misses a lot of the action now that Jennifer Garner is pregnant. Hopefully it will pick up. I do hope that they renew it. This is the last season of all their contracts.

You are right Map, it's hard for her to be the bun-kicking agent with pregnancy...HM! I do miss some of that stuff. Like being able to see her entire body, not just above the waist and up. :p

*threads merged*

So, I was just wondering if anyone here watches Alias, which is my most favorite television show (well, tied with Friends). I know it's ending after this season, and though I'm in England for the year and I haven't been able to watch it, I feel like it might be spiraling down unfortunately. Anyways, just wondering if anyone likes it and if so, who's your favorite character, and also, if you watch it, whatever happened to Nadia?

I have watched it since the biginning. Although this season I haven't gotten to see any since they moved it to Thursday night. But they are going to move it back to Wensday, so I will be able to see it now.

A lot has happened this season that I don't want to post because of spoilers incase anyone wants to wait till it comes out on DVD to catch up. If you'd like to know all the details you can pm me and I'll let you know. I've been dissappointed with this season. It lacks the firepower of other seasons. It's sad that they are ending on this one. Of course, that said, the season isn't over yet :pray:

I'm confused, why does a thread about the best ever spy show made say "ALIAS" instead of "Get Smart"? ;)

Well, obviously, if you haven't heard, it's because ALIAS is the very best spy show ever made!!! :bouncy:

As far as I know, they're only moving it to Wednesday for two weeks, and then it's back to Thursday for the duration of the season.

Alias was my favorite show for a couple of years, seasons 1, 2, and 3 (even though not every agrees with me about 3) were some of the best television I've ever seen. Season 4 things weren't as interesting from week to week and season 5 so far has been the weakest of all 5 seasons . Watching from week to week though is partly what hurts it, and seasons 4 & 5 are probably for more entertaining to watch if done back to back on DVD, because the story progresses much quicker that way. It is too bad that they are ending it this year, but at the same time, I think it's best to finish when you still have some viewers ;). From what I've heard, it's going to be a fantastic finale though.

Maybe as a flash back, but didn't they gun him done rather unglamorously?

No. Michael Vartan plays Michael Vaughn.

You know, it would be cool if he does, but I don't really think he'd want to come back to the show because of all the off cemera stuff.

Since Jennifer Garner is pregnant, there has been a lot less :boxing: and :duel: than usual from her character. If her character does do anything at this point, it's a body double.
I used to be really into it, but the story lines are so unbelievable.
