Stolen from Em
FIRST, THE REQUIRED QUESTIONS
1. Favorite episode and why:
That's tough. I'd say it's Phase One because it was the first ep I'd ever seen. And the kiss still melts me. But I might have to go with A Dark Turn, since it's so Irina/Jack heavy. Plus, it's a great ep.
2. Favorite characters and ships. Plus why:
Favorite characters: I really love Jack. I love his character arc, and that it wasn't done so quickly. Plus, Victor Garber is the shit.
Weiss, of course, is such an under-used character. They could do so, so much more with him and they haven't. And that's a real shame.
Favorite ships: I told kelbelle once that I go for the easy ships because I'm too lazy to actually put effort forth on a ship that I'm never going to see. Sigh. So I'm still a Sydney/Vaughn fan. I'm waiting to see how season three pans out as far as their relationship goes. But I loved the looks, the tension, the everything of the first two seasons. Until I watched Counteragent. And then I THREW things at my television because I couldn't BELIEVE...you know what? I can't talk about that episode. I'll just get angry all over again.
3. When did you start watching?
I fell victim to the whole ABC Superbowl ad campaign for Alias, so I watched Phase One. But I didn't watch the other episodes until em_meredith and I chatted one day and she *made* me go to Alias Media and download the SpySex clip. And then I was a goner. She furthered my Alias involvement by sending me CDs of episodes she thought I should watch. Oh, and fic recommendations.
4. What's your favorite season and why? What's your least favorite season and why?
Most definitely season two. The dynamic between Jack/Irina/Sydney was such a good storyline. I loved how Jack tried to hold on to Sydney during that season, too. So, so great.
And the gag reel rocks.
NEXT, A BIG BLOB...
5. What's your demographic info? (A/S/L)
25/S/Austin, TX
6. What channel does Alias air where you live?
Channel 3 on Time Warner Austin. Hurrah!
7. What do you watch the show for, romance or action?
All of it. I love the wigs, the costumes, the missions. But I also loved how Sydney tried to balance her spy life with her friends. And I loved how Vaughn looked at Sydney. Dude, if a guy ever looked at me like that again, I'd have a VERY hard time staying single.
8. Is Vaughn worthy of Sydney?
Vaughn. What a lovesick TOOL. Seriously, he's probably the character that annoys me the most. In season two, I was totally on board with Jack in thinking that he had no spine. It was mostly the Alice thing. And then he broke up with Alice only after he and Sydney sucked face? God, you prat.
Is Irina worthy of Jack?
I think Irina still loves Jack and I think Jack, even though he hates it, still loves her. I think Sydney was right when she said that when Laura died, Jack lost his soul.
9. Where does Sark fit in? Does he fit in?
Um, he's hot. Totally and completely hot. I really don't care about where he fits in as long as I can look at the pretty.
10. What do you think of the whole Rambaldi plotline?
It's pretty stupid, but the Rambaldi juice just did me in. I think it could have been interesting if they hadn't screwed it up in season three with the Passenger bullshit. I think that when David Carradine guest starred in season two and gave Sloane that parchment, that could have turned into something interesting. But alas, we get SpySkipper for no damn good reason.
11. Did you watch X-Files or Buffy? How does Alias compare?
No to both.
NOW, THE SHALLOW...
12. What's your favorite Jennifer Garner awards dress?
I seriously considered switching teams after seeing her in the Oscars dress because she looked so friggin' fantastic.
13. What Alias cast member movie are you the most excited about?
I absolutely *adore* 13 Going on 30. Love, love, love it. But I'm also kind of hyped about Monster in Law, cause the pics of MV on the set are just HOT.
14. Give career advice to a cast member.
Lena! Trust me when I tell you that coming back to Alias would be a great move for you! Trillions of reasons why!
15. Will you be buying the S3 DVDs?
God, hell yeah. If nothing else than for Facade, which is by far my favorite episode of the season. And the gag reel. And Regina's commentary for The Two.
