When’s the last time you watched a TV show for the first time and thought, “Wow.”? That happened to me last night watching ‘Alias.’ Sort of a cross between ‘La Femme Nikita’ and ‘Felicity’ with a little ‘Run Lola Run’ thrown in, it was fast, exciting, stylish, and most of all, just fun. Jennifer Garner is fantastic as coed/double agent Sydney Bristow. It’s no surprise that ‘Felicity’ comes to mind, since J.J. Abrams created both shows, and Garner even appeared on the curly-haired college series. What a pleasant surprise in this current TV wasteland of new shows like ‘Bob Patterson’ and ‘According to Jim.’ I can’t wait for the next episode.

You beat me to this one. I had planned on writing a post about Alias on my blog, but you described it perfectly. I said “Wow” too, but the exclamation was in reference to Jennifer Garner’s dimples. I think I’m in love! 🙂
Seriously though, this is a very intense show. I look forward to “wowing” many more times.
