Ok, I'll admit it. I've gotten into watching the show Alias. In fact, I hardly miss it. I'm hooked.
But I've got a question. I know there's the prophesy about the chosen one, which is not the same prophesy as the one about the passenger (not confusing at all, honestly), but who is the chosen one? Is it Irina or is it Sydney?
And can I just say Thank Goodness the truth is finally out between Vaughn and his psycho-wife. I can't wait to see her get justice.
Ooo, I hope there's other Alias fans out here in HP land! Let the chatter begin! :clap:

AWESOME! I'm also a huge fan, been one since the pilot episode. Anyway, "The Chosen One" is Sydney, definitely. Last season, Irina even said so, before she parachutes off that one building. She tells Sydney that the prophecy is about her (Sydney).
I am totally glad that the truth is out about Lauren. It's going to make for some great drama next season. Of course, the whole deal with Syd's sister is going to be huge. I read somewhere (can't remember where) that Nadia is supposed to be really evil.
Glad to see someone who likes Alias just as much as I do!! :clap:

Aggggh! i cant believe you guys watch it! lol. When it first came out i watched a few episodes but then i noticed a trend in the episodes- Sydney goes on a mission (usally in a very conspisous get up) while trying to avoid suspicion from her friends.
sorry cant stand it lol

Ah, but the formula has changed, young grasshopper. Now Syd or Vaughn almost get axed before the end, but somehow they make it thru. She doesn't Always get to wear the conspicuous outfits, but Sark or Lauren always come off as more evil than before. And Marshall still gets to make cool gadgets. :)
Ok, so another Alias question: How come that box that Syd found had Irina's name on the bottom? Because she's the mom of the passenger and the chosen? Doesn't quite make sense to me. :huh:

Partly, because Irina is the mother of the Chosen and the Passenger. Remember, Sloane said he received the Rambaldi artifact's message, and it was "PEACE." In Greek, Irina means "peace." So, as the mother of both girls, she was keeping the secret of the passenger's whereabouts. As Vaughn said last episode, the prophecy says Syd and Nadia will duke it out, and both of them will die. Perhaps Irina's keeping of the secret of the passenger's location was intended to keep peace between her two daughters. There are many ways to look into it. Of course, the most obvious is that Irina simply wanted to hide Nadia's location, which the box was key in doing.
Hope that made sense!

Great thread! I love this show so incredibly much. It's intelligent and really keeps you on the edge of your seat. It helps that the actors are pretty convincing as well.
I kind of liked the first and second seasons better than this one, but finally the third one seems to be getting somewhere. And I like your way of looking into that whole Irina thing, AvatarofTime. Does anyone know if Lena Olin (Irina) is coming back onto the show? First she wasn't, then I heard she was...
Anyway, the next episode looks good:
With the aid of Katya Derevko (Isabella Rossellini) and CIA imprisoned security systems designer Toni Cummings (Vivica A. Fox), Sydney and Vaughn attempt to track down Sloane and his daughter, Nadia (Mia Maestro) - Sydney's half-sister. But Lauren and Sark are also in hot pursuit of Sloane and Nadia in order to uncover the secrets of Rambaldi. Meanwhile, Vaughn's obsession with tracking down Lauren is beginning to consume him, Sydney and Vaughn turn the tables on an old foe, and Katya expresses her attraction to Jack.

Hope that made sense!
Ok, yeah, that makes sense. I didn't like the part about the 2 sis' dueling it out and neither surviving :sad:
Oh, and this: and Katya expresses her attraction to Jack. is funny. I mean, didn't that kiss (after she helped to arrange the rescue of Syd and Vaughn) seem to imply an attraction? :eyebrows: I've actually been wondering where that was going. I figured that she knew of her sis' deception, and figured Jack was fair game. She's probably been interested in him for quite a while.
I'm just glad that some things do seem to get resolved in the show. For example, when Syd and Vaughn were having their budding relationship, the writers didn't let it drag on for 3 seasons before they admitted anything. And the whole Lauren thing, I think I was going to pop if they didn't let Vaughn figure that one out soon!

I'm still a few weeks behind you guys on the episodes, we're like 6 weeks behind the States in Australia, but I've been reading the episodes on the net.....
In Australia its only just been shown that Lauran is evil... but I'm guessing its like another 6 weeks until everyone knows she's evil... never did like her (although she's being acted by a really cool Australia chick!)
Overall I love the show.. with all these reality TV shows I just like to watch something that's entertaining!

Hey all - I have some potentially devestating news. I'll paste in what was said:
Nothing is firm yet about "Alias'" future and ABC sources tell us they don't expect to know if the Jennifer Garner starrer will be renewed or dropped until May 18. With heads rolling in the management ranks of the ratings-weak network -- at this critical time of year for the TV industry when pilots are studied and decisions about the new season must be made -- you might say that many things are up in the air at ABC
Ack! I had no idea that it was even a consideration not to renew the show. I'm guessing that since Jennifer Garner (Syd) is now branching out into movies (and I think it's gotten good reviews) that they'll be more interested in meeting whatever demands she has. I'll try to keep everyone posted if I hear anything else.
Oh, here's the link where I found this: http://channels.aimtoday.com/celebrity/becksmithans.jsp?id=52&date=04/23/2004

Well, they've got conflicting messages concerning this...I found something saying that Alias is for sure coming back next season:
LOS ANGELES (Zap2it.com) - While ABC won't officially announce its fall schedule until May, "Alias" star Jennifer Garner says that she and the spy series will be part of the line-up.
"We are coming back for next year, which we are thrilled about," Garner tells Zap2it.com. "I don't know if it's been announced, but I'll be back. We hired new writers, we hired new cast members, so it's happening."
Link is here. (http://www.greatlink.org/dcisV2.asp?url=http://www.greatlink.org/shownewsitem.asp?item=3285) Let's just cross our fingers.

:agree: I totally agree!! I just don't understand the craze about reality TV. You know, we LIVE in reality, why would we want to watch shows about it?
I heard something about Nadia and Sloane. Apparently, when he injected her with that serum (the one to make her reveal info about Rambaldi), she began to draw very complex blueprints for some kind of mechanical device. I don't know what it does, though. This is next episode, of course.
I'm actually kind of excited about Jack and Katya. They have such a dynamic relationship, especially because there's so much history that we don't know about.
RubberSoul, I also heard that Lena would be returning for one episode, but I don't know what happened. There's only, what, four episodes left for this season? I was hoping we'd see her, but I'm not so sure now... I'm sure she has a lot to reveal about Nadia!
P.S. Thanks for the nod, Lil Red Head! :)

Our whole family watches Alias every Sunday evening. If we are gone, we have my mom tape it for us! It's our favorite.
I wondered if Irina's sister was actually Irina. You know, since they couldn't get the actress to renew, maybe she had plastic surgery or something like that to change her appearance. I can't believe that Irina is totally evil. Remember her famous line last season..."Truth takes time" and then she takes a dive off of that building.
And from the very first season, I would tell my husband that I bet we find out that Sloan is Sydney's father or something like that...I knew something was up with him and Irina, just wasn't Sydney, huh!

:tu: Another Alias fan here. Regarding Irina appearing in Season 3 - I read somewhere that Lena Olin asked for a significant pay increase for S3, which unfortunately ABC/JJ Abrams could not or would not agree to. But like others have said, I believe she will be returning for one episode, yay! :clap:
ultimate sacrifice, that thought crossed my mind too - Katia seemed to enjoy that kiss a bit much...
IMO this season has been sub-par with the exception of the past 5 or 6 episodes, but I'm looking forward to see what they have in store - I didn't know until a few weeks ago there would be a sister (been staying spoiler free as much as possible).
I'm lovin the true spy family - dad, mom, daughter, aunt, and now sister. Here's hoping for a great season 4.

I'm sorry, but Alias is starting to suck. It was much better when Sydney had an actual life and actual friends who were not all spies. Come on, writers...we need a little dose of reality again...I mean, whatever happened to those late night chats with Francie? Coffee with Will? Drinks with Weiss?! I'd take those moments over green blobs and rambaldi brain machines anyday, cuz that's what made the show so good in the first place :upset:
Don't get me wrong, though, I still love the show (and have always hated Lauren, of course ^_~ ) but I want to keep loving the show, you know? :D

May 12th, 2004, 6:23 am
I'd have to agree with that a bit... Half the fun in the first season was watching Syd lie to people about who she is, and what she does.... Now they all know!
I still love the show, but Syd really is just becoming a female James Bond, who happens to have a weekly show....

:lol: You guys are so funny. It's true, tho, that it does lack a little something now that there's not college or outside life or anything. Then again, she can dedicate more time to her spy-life and spy-boyfriend-to-be-again. I really had hopes that they could bring good Francie back somehow, but it looks like that character is well buried. Too bad.
And, yeah, she is kinda James Bond like, I can see that, but like fiorenza said, at least she's into the action thing, not the drinking a martini on the beach thing. :agree: Tho, hey, if the writers want her to do that, that's cool too, lol. As long as she then gets to kick some bad guy bottoms!
I'm not sure about Syd's dad sometimes. He strikes me as someone with mixed ethics. I'll try to put my head together about that one and get back to you all.
And hey, does anyone know if the May 23rd show is going to be a new episode or a new one? There's going to be an advance showing of the new movie in Denver that night and I'm hoping to win tickets, tho I've entered every night so far and nothing yet :grumble: Wish me luck!

Good luck! What movie is this by the way? An Alias movie?! OH...Harry Potter... of course. Heh...that took me awhile...
Anyway, yes; the May 23rd show is the all-new finale, and the one where Vaughn let's it all out, if you saw the preview: "I hate you [Lauren]. I LOVE SYDNEY!" Which is [I think] the worst line ever uttered by Vaughn. But still quite exciting....somehow...
And about Syd's dad...I agree. He is a psycho with mixed ethics. All those years of brainwashing and mind games must have done something to him.

Hahaha, does he actually say that? Honestly, Vaughn is getting quite pathetic.
I have to agree with what someone said higher up that it's not as good without Syd's friends and whatnot. I miss Francie! She was such a cute character! Then she had that whole cloning thing...then the immortal thing...then she disappeared. Sydney must be a really strong person, because she's dealt with a lot. Her two best friends are gone, Vaughn is married (though not for long), her mom is a Russian spy, Sloane's always ruining her life somehow, she's found a long-lost sister.

Yes he is. It's saddening. (And he doesn't even pull off the line well...it's embarrassing) :p
Sydney must be a really strong person, because she's dealt with a lot.
That's probably why most of us love the show ^_^ Sydney's the ultimate epitome of the strong-minded, strong-willed, and physically strong woman. But the love of her life seems to be going psycho...I don't know if she could handle losing that last hope of 'rekindling' their relationship. The way her life seems to be going, she could end up going crazy herself. I would.

Can't complain, though- at least she finally got what she deserves... but, I repeat my first sentiment about this episode: whoa.

Ok...now seeing that the show is on HIATUS until January, we can have fun for the next 7 and a half months trying to figure out what it is that Sydney was looking at. Sooo annoying.
It was a good enough episode though. Vaughn was scaring me. If I were Sydney, I don't know how comfortable I'd be around him after that performance.

Yeah...Vaughn is definitely scary now. "Hi, HONEY!" << What was thaaaat... >> "This is hydrochloric acid. You'll be unrecognizable." lol. Everyone is going crazy o_O
Watch Lauren miraculously come back to life next season. My theories are that Sydney has actually been working for the bad guys because the CIA is corrupt and ****. Wow, Sydney's whole life is a LIE...I really wonder what this so-called project is all about. Probably a continuation of her childhood spy training. And Jack said it was over. ******!

Ooh, a Matrix. It's possible, though! Seeing how farfetched things are in Sydney's life at the moment, anything's possible. I was also wondering why Lauren bothered to tell Sydney the safe information, because its not like she/Vaughn would spare Lauren's life; they were already way ****** off at her to care...so I was thinking maybe there is a shred of goodness in little-miss-evil. :p
Back to "the project"; Vaughn seems to have had no clue about it. He's shown too much evidence of his love for Sydney...and I think it's real love, unlike Jack's (but perhaps Jack DOES love Sydney, but loves the CIA more. I don't know anymore.) BUT if he DID know, I would hate him forever.
In the end everything will probably turn out like the Truman show. Bleh. Poor, poor Sydney. All she wanted was a normal life ;;-_-

Ok I agree with the above post about it being a continuation of her child hood spy training. My mom thinks that she will end up being some sort of cyborg/robot.
I think though what it will end up being is the project of when she was a child. Lauren found those documents and that's what Syd is looking at. Nothing new.
I kinda liked Vaughn being a psycho maniacal bad boy. Hmm turning out to be more like Syds dad. Well they say girls end up with men who are just like their fathers.

The finale was awesome. I think the documents might be a project concerning Rambaldi because its name was SAB47 (47 is Rambaldi's number). I hope because that could mean that Jack was also obsesed with Rambaldi.

Yeah, they better fix it after that pathetic third season.
I think JJ Abrams was busy working on other shows and he left someone else in charge. They almost ruined what he worked so hard to make.
I have the first two seasons on DVD and I LOVE THEM!!!
I just went to that spoiler link...it sounds like things might pick up for this next season!! Yay! I'm going to be out of the country next year when it comes on though...how sad is that? I might be tempted to go online and read about the eps before I actually see them...I hope I don't ruin it for myself.

And it looks like my instincts on Jack were right, grrr. They need to end the series (eventually) with Lena coming back and kicking Jack's butt, lol. I do wonder what his core alliance is. He seems to be concerned for Syd's safety, but probably not so much because he's her dad, it appears.
I figured that Lauren told Syd about the papers because she knew it would shake up Syd's world, and in a bad way. Here's one flaw I saw at the end of that ep (too much HP, lol): Syd runs off to what, Germany?, to go look at these papers. Jack arrives about 5 minutes after her. So at what point does he get word of where she's going, and how come he couldn't get there sooner, if he really wanted to prevent her from seeing the papers. Like he couldn't have created a distraction that would have delayed her. It was one of those contrived dramatic moments for me, lol.
Like I said, too much Harry Potter analysis, lol.

Yeah, I also heard that they're bringing back more of the original feel with the outside life and stuff.
I heard the JJ Abrams was really mad about how they kept moving the show around and skipping weeks and stuff, and he was one of the ones voting to keep season 4 until January. It will run straight through with no reruns. That's great in my opinion.
I really don't like Vaughn anymore. He's weak. I want Syd to get together with Wiess. Wouldn't that be cute? And he's so nice.

What was so bad last season is that both Will and Francie were gone, so Sydney had no out-of-work outlet and we lost that dynamic of the show, like what someone above me said.
I really don't like Vaughn anymore. He's weak. I want Syd to get together with Wiess. Wouldn't that be cute? And he's so nice.
Weiss is the best! He's so underrated as a character, and they don't do enough with him. I say he's the genius behind Vaughn. And speaking of Vaughn - I had a picture of Michael Vartan on my wall that has just been ceremoniously tossed into the garbage pail after haveing just watched a tape of one of the shows from last season. Sydney needs to get over him.
Ok, and this is a weird thing to say, but there's this Kill Bill - Alias connection. Quentin Tarantino, David Carradine, Vivica A. Fox and Ethan Hawke have all guest-starred and they were also all involved in Kill Bill. Well, Ethan Hawke's just Uma Thurman's ex-husband, but anyway. I'm not saying it's a conspiracy or anything, but it's just something funny.

I never watched Alias until the last month and I rented them straight through and have now seen every episode. I am most dissapointed that Will is out of the picture. He was such a good character and was way better for Syd than Vaughn is. I just couldn't understand how she could chose Vaughn over Will in the first season. I keep hoping that he will return to the CIA and become a big part of Syd's life again. Due to the fact that he is now known to be alive he might as well. Jack is also one of my favorite characters and I hope he doesn't turn out to be totally evil. I agree that the masks where rediculous and they really pulled me out of the momentum of the episode. For some reason I feel sorry for Sarc and Sloan a lot of the time. They don't really have any redeeming qualities, I just see them as being very sad most of the time. The guy from THE OFFICE was great, it was a suprise for me that he could be so serious. I don't know if I can deal with the anticipation for HBP and the next season of Alias!

When it does come back on, though, it's supposed to go straight through without any breaks for repeats, etc. So it'll be nonstop Alias, lol.
I've gotten desperate lately. I found some Alias novels at the library, so I'm working my way through them. They're kind of cheesy, but they're prequels, so it's interesting backstory.
Oh, did anyone else see the actor who plays Sark playing a character on CSI? He's giving them evidence analysis, and hubby and I are trying hard not to yell at the TV, "Don't trust him!" :lol:

The reason they had to hold it off was because she was shooting Electra (i think i spelt the name wrong). But definitely looking forward to next season and seeing what's going on. My sister just about died when she found out it wasn't til January. I should warn y'all, it may be pre-empted at least once for those stupid award shows. I believe both the Emmys and the Oscars pre-empted it in Jan/Feb last year.

WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 5th, 9:00pm Alias 2-hour season premiere!!!!!! (Right after LOST, another awesome show!) I'm so excited!!! I love Alias, I've seen every episode.
We never got enough of Syd as a person. It sounds like they're changing the format of the show for season 4 though, so maybe that will "fix" it.
Sounds like they are, I read part of an interview that said we'd see more of Syd at home this season.

I've got all these theories running through my head. NOne of them make sense. WOW.
Is Jack really Syd's dad?
Is Sloane really a bad guy? Why was he in the CIA?
Syd's mom must be evil incarnate.

Yeah, I can't wait either. Did anyone see the last episode (it was a little hard to understand) but Sydney found the document that said her dad was the one who gave the orders to give her over to those people (it's been so long I can hardly remember their name) but it eventually ended in her memery being erased. I think he sent her over to them for a reason so she could get info but then she erased her memory to forget all the horrible things she did. Either that or her dad is crazy! This is so confusing, but I absolutely LOVE that show.

Okay, guys...
I need a refresher course, can anyone give me a synopsis of the season finale from last year, I'm trying to remember what exactly Sydney discovered in that safe deposit box, what did heer father do? He set her up for that spy program when she was a child, right? What else do I need to remember before I watch the show on Wed.?

January 3rd, 2005, 8:21 am
I LOVE ALIAS!
Just thought I'd express that. Anyway, what's with Jack? He's like...bad. Remember before Lauren died, she said 'at least I know who I'm working for'? And then when Syd was reading the documents, Jack comes in a says 'you were never meant to find those'.
I read an interview with JJ Abrams or whatever his name is that the Rambaldi plotline was be so prominent as it was in Season 3.
I really hated Lauren! I never really liked Syd and Vaughn together, but when Lauren came into the show, I was just hoping that they'd get together! But now that Lauren is hopefully dead and buried (though knowing Alias she won't be), I know that I won't like Syd and Vaughn together. I'll probably go back to the old Syd/Weiss and Syd/Sark days. Doesn't Sark remind you of a certain blond Slytherin boy?
Just out of curiosity, there have been ads for the show Lost on Australia recently, and I heard that JJ Abrams does that show as well. I also heard that Dominic cantrememberhislastname who played Merry in LotR is in it. Is this true?

The Alias premier rocked... I have been hooked to this show since I first saw the ad. I was like, that looks awesome, than the Pilot aired, and I've watched it religously ever since.
Now, about the premier... SPOILERS!
Marshall was hilarious (eggs with Sark, anyone?)
The seen with the sword theft had me freaking out, I was just like - you're killing me here. It sucks, because you know that no matter what happens Sydney will get out of it in the end (including handing from a train...) but you're just like WHEN & HOW? It kills me.
I was angry at Jack for the Derevco thing at first... cause I actually liked her - but now I want to know why Derevco put out the hit.
And Vaughan should dress like a geek all the time. He's hot like that (but he always is...)
Hmmm... I feel sorry for Weiss. He's kind of out of the loop on the whole APO bit.
I knew she wasn't going to quit, I saw it on the ad and I even said to someone online that I the trailer was just leading us on - like ALWAYS!
As for the whole APO thing in general - I love it. Sydney, Vaughan, Dixon, Jack, Marshall and Sloane on a Black Op team? The missions are going to be brilliant. They're allowed be completely illegal.
And I loved when Sydney was like "Okay, now I'm going to ask the most obvious question in the history of the world..."
Obviously it wasn't the best episode ever - but those, I find, usually happen mid-season. (Premieres of everything are never the best episodes because its setting up the season, rather than twisting the plot on you...)
I'm done now, really...
ultimate sacrifice
January 6th, 2005, 5:11 am
It was awesome, but I don't believe that Sydney's mother put a hit out on her...I think there will be a plot twist...
Unless they had to write her out because of all of the contract disputes, etc with the actress that played Sydney's mother, she wanted more money per episode last season, and ABC wouldn't budge, so maybe it's for real because they had to get rid of the character???

I found the premier too predicatable... the only thing that surprised me was Syd's mum putting a hit on her. But other then that I was calling everything that happened.
Meh, I hope the storyline picks up - because it doesn't look too interesting right now.
Oh, I'm not bashing the show - I've been watching since season one. I'm just let down by the premier. Maybe I was building myself up too much for it. The writing seems a little more 'blah', doesn't it?
Oh and I love Weiss... truly.

You have to remember, they have to explain what happened between the finale and the premier (the finale cliffhanger is never the set up for the next season, it's just to make you want to see the premier) than they have to set up the new sitch for the new season. It's all business, and it's very difficult to write an episode that's all business. The mid-season episodes are always the best ones.
That's the thing with all premiers - people expect so much because it's "THE PREMIER", because they've been waiting - but the premier is just a fresh start, no plot yet. (The OC did it, One Tree Hill did it... premiers generally suck compared to finales)
And yes, I love Weiss (maybe Nadia will, too)

Yeah JJ Abrams did Lost as well, and I've seen the ads for it and Dominic can't-spell-his-last-name is in the ads for it.
Syd and Vaughn are meant to be in my opinion. Gosh Will annoyed me! am glad he's gone for now. And Lauren!! oooo!!! she made me so mad! but like you said she's probably not dead! Everybody seems to die twice in alias . . sydney's mum, sydney, slone, the francie double, Emily

Marshall was hilarious (eggs with Sark, anyone?)
The whole time before they (APO) had Marshall, I was freaking out (he's one of my favorites, soooo funny)... I was like "THEY CAN'T DO ANYTHING WITHOUT MARSHALL!!! They need to get him in!!!" and then they did... If you haven't guessed, watching Alias at my house is a very loud experience.
The seen with the sword theft had me freaking out,
Haha, I just realized that that must have been how all the swords got into my dreams last night. Anyway, I won. (In my dream.)
I was angry at Jack for the Derevco thing at first... cause I actually liked her - but now I want to know why Derevco put out the hit.
Yeah, you can tell this is going to be a big plot-point... Because Nadia has vowed to kill whoever killed her mother, but Syd can't let it happen because she found out that her mom was trying to kill her and her dad stopped it...
And Vaughan should dress like a geek all the time. He's hot like that (but he always is...)
Agreed!
Hmmm... I feel sorry for Weiss. He's kind of out of the loop on the whole APO bit.
Exactly what I was thinking... he needs to be brought in. Or something.
I knew she wasn't going to quit, I saw it on the ad and I even said to someone online that I the trailer was just leading us on - like ALWAYS!
Yea, that part was really wierd... and then I screamed when I saw Sloane was their new boss... even though I had already guessed it... as I said, Alias watching is loud at my house... And then again when I cracked up when Syd said "Are you sure she really quit? I hear fake quitting is all the rage."
The missions are going to be brilliant. They're allowed be completely illegal.
Oh yeah... :cool:

Edit: Sorry, I just have to ask, but how do you get Alias in Toronto? Do you have American channels?
Not really my question to answer, but... I am from Niagara Falls, NY, which is about an hour and a half from Toronto (I've made the trip in 45 minutes... shhhh, don't tell on me :p) News broadcasts in the Buffalo/Niagara region reach Toronto, so programming does as well. Especially if you have a satellite!
I'm confused about something, maybe someone can explain -
As Sydney read the secret document last season, she started crying as she read the first page. The first page had Sydney's name on it, implying the document was about her.
Yesterday, we learned that the document explained that Jack killed Irina. OK. But the document doesn't explain WHY he did it. Sydney did not learn why Jack killed Irina until this episode. She did not know Irina put a hit on her until this episode.
So why was Sydney's name on the first page of that document?

Excellent question! I have no idea at the moment... I was wondering but kinda forgot about it. Maybe *complete speculation* her name was there because Jack got permission to -eliminate- Irina because she was going to kill Syd... but that doesn't make very much sense either... because then Jack wouldn't have had to tell her that he killed Irina... I still have no idea...

Yea, I was wondeing about that... Sark is one of the loose ends from last season that hasn't quite been tied up.
And speaking of loose ends... whatever happened to the fake Francie?

Ahhh!! No!! Never! (Sorry about that outburst...)
I was excited that I didn't have to dig up this thread so I could hear everyone's thoughts about yesterday's episode!
How weird was it when they shot that guy and he like shattered?

I laughed my *** off when it happened, I thought it was funny because I had no idea what was going on.

My mom was all like, "When he fell did they switch his body with a ceramic body or something and take the real guy?"
(Needless to say, I laughed at her.)

Big fan of Alias here :) I've been watching this series since the very first episode, but up until now I haven't seen season 4. I had collected the DVDs of season 1-3 though. Which episode of 4th season are you guys watching right now? Oh, I can't wait.. :sad:
KatieJoy

Sooo... what'd you think of yesterdays episode?
I thought it was all a little strange and didn't exactly understand why APO was involved...
Do you guys think they are going to be bringing all the Rombaldi stuff back? I deff think that was one of the things that made the show...
chronium
January 27th, 2005, 7:42 pm
yeah they will bring it back for some reason in the future but probably late in the series. the reason y apo was involved was because the guy stole that emp device. but how they were dragged into that sub burb was stupid in my opinion.

Okay, now who is "Sentinal" is Irina "Sentinal" or was that Russian guy that met with Jack "Sentinal"? I didn't get that whole thing, other than the Russians are looking for Irina, so she isn't dead, which I thought that all along, especially when they showed a picture of her holding a baby and it wasn't the original actress, so I thought they were working in the image of a new actress for Irina.
Anyway...what are Jack and Sloan up to?
chronium
January 28th, 2005, 5:21 am
Sentinal is Irina and the russians do not know she is dead, since the russians lost contact with her they are trying to find out whats happend. what will happen when they find out she's dead I dont know.

I don't think so. I think Yelena is Sentinel. At the end of the last episode Jack and Sloane were talking about Yelena, who is Irina's sister.
I think it's curious that her codename is Sentinel. As sentinel means guarding something. What could she be guarding?
ultimate sacrifice
January 28th, 2005, 9:52 pm
I think that "Sentinal" is guarding something "Rembaldi-ish". I forgot about Irina's sister! But Sydney, Jack and Sloan seemed to acknowledge that the woman holding the baby in the photo was Irina...do you think the woman in the photo is Yelena, Irina's sister???
Kewii
January 28th, 2005, 10:32 pm
In the picture I'm sure they were talking about Irina. Sorry, I must've gotten the conversation mixed up :)
When I mentioned Yelena I just meant that's who I'm pretty sure Sentinal is.

I've only watched a few episodes of it, but I like it. Their pronunciation of certain Russian names sort of grates on me, but I try to ignore it. ;) Good show, though. Nice to see a good spy show on again.

wait, wait, is Yelena the character that Isabelle Rossalini played? the one that kissed Jack????? cause if it is then that makes sense, or is yelena the one in the picture that Nadia found????
chronium
January 30th, 2005, 4:28 am
yelena is the character that kissed jack, and I still say sentinal is irina (think thats the right name)
rup_dan_luver
January 30th, 2005, 5:28 am
I think Sentinal is Irina too, because jack said it was a dead end...so maybe...I taped the episode, so I'll watch it again ust to make sure ;)
Kewii
January 30th, 2005, 8:54 pm
No, Yelena is Irina's other sister.
Katya is the one who kissed Jack.

ok im so getting confused we need pictures of whos who.

No, Yelena is Irina's other sister.
Katya is the one who kissed Jack.
Oh my goodness, I missed that...I did not know that Irina had TWO sisters! Cripes!!!
So, are we all agreed that the woman in the picture holding the baby is Irina and she will be played by a new actress???
Kewii
January 31st, 2005, 2:29 pm
uhhhh. Yes and No.
Yes it was a picture of Irina.
But No I don't think she will be back. They kinda said she's dead.

Bump!
What did you all think of yesterday's episode?
It was sorta wierd...
And I really don't understand where they are taking the show this season...
chronium
February 11th, 2005, 12:58 pm
well for I am a little but more convinced that APO is a brand new SD6. I got that feeling right after sloan told off the black guy (forget his name)
KatieJoy
February 11th, 2005, 4:28 pm
Yea... I'm not quite sure how I feel about APO, it's all a little shady. Even though it's technically a black-ops unit, wouldn't the head of the CIA know about it? So, theoretically, could Syd go check it out with him/her?
I kinda don't understand why we haven't seen any Rambaldi stuff yet...

My favourite season so far was season 2, but i also like season 4 so far. At first i didn't like this season so much until they started to connect the episodes two weeks ago.
anyway, does anybody know if lauren is going to come back this season ( even though technically she should be dead).
