Ali-ASS

[verbminx]

OK, seriously, seriously, seriously. I am renaming Alias. It will henceforth be known as Ali-ASS. Because that show jumped the shark last year. In fact, all JJ Abrams's shows jump the shark when he goes to work on his next major TV project: Felicity sank in earnest with the advent of Alias, so I thought there was a pretty good chance that Alias would quickly become lame once Lost was on the air. And it is, and it did, and so on. And I don't believe for two minutes together the stuff that happened at the end of the episode, even if they are currently saying it's for real.

Though the end of tonight's episode did finally cause my mom to disavow the show and any interest therein. I like to punish myself (I watched The X-Files religiously up until the last season or so, and even then I caught all key episodes and skipped MOTW episodes), so I'll probably keep watching it. Actually, it resembles The X-Files in a bunch of ways in the last year or so.

So does NightStalker, but at least that show has an excuse... it's a remake of the show that inspired The X-Files. Wasn't so hot, but didn't completely suck. "At least," Tom said, "it's better than Invasion."

Ummm... I watched last night's Lost tonight, too. Much better.

I think we've now pretty much covered all the new TV shows. My viewing schedule will probably pretty much slide back to Lost, Veronica Mars, and Gilmore Girls (which has also been sucktastic in the last year or so, but whatever). TV is bad for you.

I think I hate Logan. I'm not really sure. All I know is that when he arrived on the scene, the show went downhill. I really didn't like last season. I hate Dean. I love Lane, but not with Zach. Dunno what else to say about that.

I miss Jess. He was trouble, but he was still a cool kid.

Why can I not kick some of TPTB in the head for putting Veronica on opposite Lost?
