Alias

Well, someone´s got to be the first to speak up, and that someone might as well be me...
I was about ten years old when I started watching the series, and became addicted from the very first episode. Like everyone else, I loved the first two seasons, but then something happened in season three that I didn´t quite understand. Now I´ve reached to the very point where I´m gonna tell you why I wrote this at all...or actually to the very question; Why do you, (when you have a show that´s already going well), ruin that great show with psycho-wives and amnesia?! And I´m not just talking about Alias now, this happens in every single show I ever watch! So why do they do this? No wonder they loose watchers...! Does anyone agree?

(And thank you for reading this...)

Honestly I was obsessed with Alias the first 2 seasons. I wanted to quit watching after Sydney disappeared and they thought she was dead. The whole Lauren triangle, I could have done without. I tried to stay faithful to the show but when I thought Vaughn died it was like "stop already" so I stopped watching for awhile until the finale. I guess they ran out of ammunition too soon. It was really disappointing to see it go down like that. Do I make sense? Anyways, I completely agree with you although I will always remain faithful to Alias.

I know, I wanted to stop watchin for some reason, but I just couldn´t, it felt wrong...! But I still feel that they had so much more to give, and I´m sure it was hard for them to go back to being "good" after they´d made the Lauren-mistake... They sort of concentrated so hard on the Lauren-is-bad thing that they completely forgot what people really watched Alias for.. And also I loved Irina so much, and I really hated that she had to be a bad-guy, I loved that hate-love thing she had with Jack... Maybe they just added the Lauren character, so that people wouldn´t realize she was gone...it sure as hell didn´t do it for me!

Well I don't think many Alias fans wanted to accept that the show started to pretty much suck. I love the show so much and I miss it but how much more could they have dragged out of it. It felt so rushed toward the end and I hate when shows end that way. Well I guess we'll just agree with each other, lol.

Once they started going nuts with all the weird Rambaldi stuff, I checked out. I really loved the first two seasons. After that it started getting ridiculous. I saw some of the pregnant episodes and they were just awful.

I'm sorry to have to disagree with all of you, but I LOVED every bit of Alias. Even the Lauren-triangle, the amnesia and the new characters in Season 5. The only thing that was a little overdrawn was the whole Rambaldi-Immortality thing. For years they hunt down this supposed mastermind and what's his big secret: living forever. Oh, please. I sorely miss Alias, but I'd rather have it end while it was fantastic than to drag on in mediocrity.

I loved "Alias" from the very beginning as well. I actually didn't have as huge a problem with it until the end of season 4 and for most of season 5. I think that a lot of it had to do with JJ working on "Lost" and, let's face it, he's a genius. Overall though, I think that once he came back to help finish the show I was satisfied with the ending.

I could tolerated the pycho wife and dissapearance thing and continued watching as it got more and more ridiculous, but after the giant floating orange ball over Svogda (I don't think I spelled that right) that made everyone go crazy I just couldn't take it.

I love everything about Alias! It just got better and better! That's why it's the best show out there. It's too bad that's it's ended. They could have made more. And the whole Rambaldi thing, that was Alias, it's something that made it unique. If you guys had watched it all you would have liked it more, you can;t just randomly stop watching and then watch it again 2 years later, you won't get anything.
