In Memoriam

In case you missed the series finale of the best show on television, which would be a shame, you can watch it here.

For those of you tired of reading about Alias, this may be the last post you ever have to endure (but I don't make any promises). After 5 great years of TV the spy-antics have ended. The show triggered my interest in espionage. I even applied to the CIA to be an economic analyst. Yes, I know Michael Vartan doesn't actually work there.

I'd like to say a few words to commemorate the end of this cult phenomenon. Sydney, I will miss your outrageous costumes and always so believable stunts. Vaughn, I'm glad you didn't really die, I was always holding out hope all along. I'm glad you and Syd finally got to be together at the end. Marshall, you are "empire strikes back" cool, there is nobody like you. Jack, I'm glad you finally came around and had a heart. Dixon, you are a loyal guy who never lets anybody down. Sloane, I'm glad everyone finally realized you really were evil. Irina, it's fitting that you died grasping for power. Last but not least, Sark, I'm sorry you had to play a bad guy in the show.

Alias is survived by Grey's Anatomy and 24 as my favorite shows.

Thanks... thanks a frikin million. Because you put that link 'you can watch it here' I clicked it and decided to watch the entire last season...Yes folks, i was an Alias addict as well but stopped cold turkey after season four. Emily, I watched 17 episodes in 48 hrs. Ugh. I was up until 4am both nights.. I must say they redeemed themselves in the last season. It was cool. the end.
