I was, but then it went the way TEH SUCK. Everything turned into Sydney crying with some crappy VH1 music.
BORING.
I didn't watch it at all last season, t hough my wife's still a fan. Since she got impregnated with Aflack, I've lost total interest in her.

I was a huge fan the 1st season, but like everyone else said, it jumped the shark after that. Unfortunately to keep viewers interested, they had to dumb it down and make the storyline simpler and easier to follow. I didn't even watch any of last season. The first season, though, was a prime example of how TV should be made.
I also lost interest in Jennifer Garner when she started dating Ben AssLick. I thought she was smarter than that. She's still hot though.

I still watch it. I thought last season was pretty good. I'd watch it just for Jack and Irina, but Sydney's sister Nadia is hot!

Everytime I see Jennifer Garner in Alias, I think of a horse I used to ride many years ago, it's name was Lycra. I always thought there was something wrong with Lycra, it was jumpy, kicky (got knocked off it and even broke my arm) anyways it also used to show off its teeth a lot. I sold it after it tried to bite me! So the upshot is that I can't watch Alias with peace in mind for this reason, I get stressed out thinking about Lycra.

what the hell is "jumped the shark"? sounds like another saying some idiot has mangled and everyone is now passing around.

I think it references that episode of Happy Days where Fonzie is water skiing around in his leather jacket, and to win over some girls and to show how macho he is, he did a jump over a shark. Happy Days was cancelled soon after.
This signifies whenever a TV show has run its course, and it just gets stupid.

I'm 33 years old and this is the first time I've *ever* heard that phrase. The wiki entry is rather stupid too.
"Changing the format of the series' episodes. For example, Star Trek: Enterprise began featuring two-three episode story arcs during its final season."
Sorry...but Enterprise was already ratings doomed by that time, and season 4 was the best of the lot.

Specifically, "jump the shark" references a Happy days episode where Fonzie overcomes his fear of sharks by jumping over one while wearing water skis.

I hope not. I hated Nadia's character.
And does anyone else have the feeling that Vaughn left because he couldn't handle his old sweetie getting impregnated by Affleck? He and Garner used to date, you know...
And yeah, last season was horrible. I did enjoy the first three, though.

I liked the character and, more importantly, she's hot. Smokin'! I'd love to see a spin-off where she and her mom stop/commit crimes. Given J.J. Abrams's track record, the actress could end up on the Lost island, which would be fine by me.

I hardly think we can believe Vaughn is truly dead. He probably is, but this is Alias...
And yeah, last season was horrible. I did enjoy the first three, though.
I actually think last season was an improvement over the third. Vaughn marrying an undercover spy just like Jack did? Come on! That's stretching even this show's credibility too much.

I don't know why I don't watch that show more often....only for the Jennifer Garner scenes. She is excellent.

Why was the episode called 30 seconds? I must have missed something.

it doesnt really matter if they kill someone off in this show because they can always bring them back to life somehow

True, but I prefer my eye candy without shards of glass sticking out of her.
