Awww...Alias. How I miss your inaneness and good wigs and costumes.

[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls, The Inside and Drive), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.
Well, the next JJ show has Denethor AND Molly Dodd.
Re Lost, for me, it was the season one finale, when they didn't answer any of the questions they promised to answer.
This was when I dropped off the bandwagon. The producers effectively said "why should we show respect to the audience? Screw 'em!" with their empty promises, and that slap in the face completely negated the enjoyment I'd had of the series up to that point.
I've been watching more of Mythbusters and Animal Planet shows since the strike started thinning out network programs, and so have happily discovered David Salmoni. I refuse to watch reality programming on Network TV, though.
Alias. How I miss your inaneness and good wigs and costumes.
This. I loved pretty much all the actors (although Spydaddy most of all, with Spymommy and Sydney fighting it out for second place). And it was shiny and exciting and things went bang!
Also, Sydney had the best wigs evah.
And Sloan! Oh, I loved Sloan, and his fucked up relationships with the SpyFamilyRobinson.
But, yes, it was made of crazy. And whoever it was that said JJ Abrams' approach to continuity and writing himself into a corner was to send Sydney into said corner in a tight red dress and get her to blow it up? So. Very. True.
Still, I never stopped liking it.
My love for the show was cemented when SpyDaddy KILLED the guy, brought him back to life with the defibullator, then threatened to do it again unless he talked. Also "what's a spork?"
I stuck it out for the first season of Lost (the Kate/Sawyer stuff may have had a lot to do with that) and was waiting for the season premier the next fall but forgot to set the Tivo and then realized I didn't actually care.
Yes! Oh, Spydaddy! How I adored him!
Really, Vaughn-schmaughn, imho. Yeah, yeah, very pretty - move along. But Spydaddy! Made. Of. Awesome!
SpyDaddy and Sark did it for me...I miss Alias
Sark? The awesome.
His relationship with the blonde chick was the best thing about S3.
