First, as for the whole Alias season not starting until January. Honestly, until I hear this confirmed directly from ABC and J.J. Abrahms I really don't want to believe "rumors". I mean this was posted on a known spoiler website and there are times when a "spoiler" becomes a "foiler". I personally think ABC is stupid as hell if they do this b/c it isn't going to keep viewers, I think it will detract viewers away. They will find something else to watch on Sunday night, some new show.
I mean I understand with The Practice now off the air that the Sunday night time slot might not be the best time, but neither would Monday night b/c the show WILL NEVER air when all the other shows do b/c of Monday Night Football. If ABC is so desperate to move Alias around find some other time, not Monday's. Choose some night where you aren't in direct competition with one of the top five shows. Just to make an example:
I grabbed my Entertainment Weekly from May 14th (sweeps) and the top 10 shows were as follows:
1. CSI (CBS, Thursdays)
2. Friends (NBC, off the air)
3. American Idol (Fox, Tuesdays)
4. American Idol (Fox, Wednesdays)
5. ER (NBC, Thursdays)
6. Survivor (CBS, Thursdays)
7. (a tv movie)
8. Will & Grace (NBC, Thursdays)
9. Friends (rerun, NBC, Thursdays, off the air)
10. Law & Order (NBC, Wednesdays)
Okay just looking at this, I would say Thursdays are just out of the question. Never go head to head with the number one show in the country, not a smart thing to do. Now some of these shows might go up and down, Friends is now out of the picture and well ER is usually lower.
But just by looking at the Neilsons for sweeps it would seem that the best time to put Alias would be on Tuesdays or Wednesdays. In AZ, AI is on at 7-8 on Tuesdays & Wednesday from 8-8:30. So right there I would say put Alias from 8-9 or 9-10 and then your not competing with AI, which is in the top ten. Yes, you will be completing with other shows on the other networks, but you get that anyways.
Sorry about my little tangent. Just wanted to express my feelings about how I think ABC would be stupid not to check out all their options before making such a STUPID (IMPO) decision.
Enough of that....
The season finale.....
OH MY GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I still cannot believe what happened.
I cannot believe that Vaughn actually killed Lauren. Thank God though. My mini-violen is playing.
And what were those classified documents that Sydney was reading. Obviously it had something to do with Project Christmas (which was mentioned in season one). What did Jack do to his own daughter? Did he turn his daughter into a covenant spy? OMG did he somehow know where she was during those two years she was missing?
As for Sydney and Vaughn, they are both so screwed when they get back. They probably will lose their jobs, well not really cause that would mean the end of the show, but geez. They are both so busted. With Lauren dead Sydney still has to prove that she didn't actually plant all those bombs in the Rotunda of the CIA HQ. And Vaughn, well I don't think he is as screwed as Sydney is, I mean Eric was in on his "escape" from the hosptal, heck he probably helped him get to Sydney.
I am still in shock over what happened.
Okay enough jabbering from me.
One request though, agree with me, disagree with me just please respect my opinions.
