London // ALIAS

[thalia_seawood]

I still haven't managed to reach a very good friend of mine in London and am a bit worried. On her mobile I get the helpful message that the user is temporarily not available, no response under her home number either and she hasn't replied to my mail. Now we're not in contact on a weekly basis, so she might be out of town without me knowing about

In ALIAS we not only get flashy action, though, but some very convincing emotional moments. I'm thinking about Arvin and Emily here or Vaughn's "I'm in" speech.

Yes. Anyone can do the James Bond action stuff. But what makes me care about the show are those character moments.

The expression on Jack's face during the hug is priceless.

It's a rare man who can surprise Jack Bristow, but poor Will (who does need a hug himself at this point) manages.

And "The Man" is really "The Mom". :-)

He. Yes. Which means Irina was behind everything that happened from "The Box" onwards.

But what about Emily? Does Sloane really kill her to achieve more power? Or does he "only" fake her death?That was the big question the finale left me with. It says something about the quality of the character-build up that both options seemed equally believable to me. Naturally, I shall not tell you. Patience, young padawan. Also, what does your heart tell you?*veg

Thanks for the recs! I've enjoyed them all.

Right now I've watched ALIAS up to season II, episode 4 and will probably post my impressions later this day. But yes, this show gets better and better.

I'm glad to hear it, and shall look forward to your next impressions.

I hope you reach your friend soon.

I managed to reach her in the late afternoon. She and her family are fine. :-)
