Thread: Alias

Never watched it when it was on ABC. Just got through watching the entire series. It took 2 months.

Anyway, good show. Seasons 1 & 2 were great. Season 3 was crap. I understand they had to change it up, but it sucked. Season 4 & the final season were good as well.

Jennifer Garner is hot! So was the girl playing Nadia & Lena Olin is still sexy as hell.

My favorite character was Dixon. He was badass!

I fell off the wagon when they revealed who erased her memory and then no one was who they said they were and blah blah blah.

I watched that show for Sark and Vaughn mostly. Rowl.

Someday I will try to watch all the seasons....they are collecting dust on a shelf somewhere...

Man, did that show take a hard nose dive. It started off great, though.

Ah! We agree on yet another thing!!! I've been trying to tell Adgy that it ate **** towards the end, he doesn't believe me. Of course I do blame JJ Abrams for that but he said he wasn't even responsible for the writing by the time the show was winding down.

Wasn't he starting to work on something else by the time it went all zombie and s***? Like maybe Cloverfield or something.

Much like Lost took a hard nose dive once he went to work on Star Trek.

yes! lol. they were the best part of the show once it went downhill.

i watched all of it though because once i start watching a series, i can't stop. i remember this show was the first time i saw bradley cooper in anything.

Her jaw was too square and masculine so I never watched it because I didn't think she was that hot...yeah I'm shallow.

I got through the 3rd season. Not sure if I watched the 4th or not because it was so long ago.

Yeah, Jennifer Garner is hot as hell in that show.

And, yeah, JJ Abrams created the show, but did not direct or write every episode! In fact, as time goes on, the original creators of shows tend to be less and less involved. So the way Alias went and the way Lost ended up have very little to do with him.

Season 2 was definitely the pinnacle of the show, when Lena Olin was a primary part of the cast the show was really solid. Things spiraled a bit in seasons 3 & 4, and a lot of the final season was rough. There were some great moments in the final episode though.
