Alias is back!

There is only one TV show that I make sure I watch each week. If I'm not going to be home, I tape it. If I can, I'll watch it back to back. (And I can, because CTV shows it at 8 usually and then ABC has it at 9)

If you're as obsessed as I am, and you've taped this but haven't watched your tape yet....you may not want to read on. ;)

Last seasons finale was confusing as hell. I'm glad that Francie imposter got what she had coming to her, but I wasn't so sure about Sydney losing two years of her life and Vaughn getting married during that time. I spent the whole summer thinking, what the hell do they have planned?

So, the new season has started. Vaughn quit the CIA to become a teacher. Uh-huh, whatever. Jack, Sydney's father, is in jail. Dixon is now the director of the CIA. Sloane is some sort of consultant to the CIA and runs the World Health Organization. What's his name with the gadgets got his girlfriend pregnant and wants to get married, but she's having none of that. Will seems to be MIA as does Sydney's mother and Sloane's sidekick...Sarc?

I'm not so sure about this. Especially since at the end of the episode Sydney totally bitched out Vaughn....which has me wondering if he's actually going to fade out of the show. Which would be terrible!

I was talking with a friend about this a couple of weeks ago actually and we agreed that it was getting kind of boring with the two of them being together. While watching them have sex was terribly exciting the first couple of times, it got old fast. Really fast. The tension between them was what made the show so interesting. Or, it was part of what made the show so interesting anyway.

Oh well. Hopefully it won't go in a terrible direction. It would dreadful to suddenly hate your favourite TV show.

However, I'm looking forward to Christmas and getting Seasons 1 & 2 on DVD, so at least if it gets terrible, I can go back and watch the good seasons ;)
