That sound that you're- you know, that 'boom'? That's my mind blowing. - Marshall

Agent Jack Bristow: [to Sloane] Personally, I would have found it anticlimactic, that after expecting to assemble a weapon of ultimate power, you ended up with a revelation you could have acquired from a fortune cookie.

Tonight is the SERIES FINALE of one of my favorites shows ever. Alias. I watched the pilot and haven’t missed an episode since. Katie and I will watch it tonight and give each other support through these sad times. So many questions remain. Will Sydney kill Sloan? Will the mystery behind all the Rimbaldi stuff be explained once and for all? Will Jack Bristow ever truly get over Irina? How many wigs will Sydney wear and what colors will they be?

I have what I consider to be a genius idea for an Alias spin-off. (Queue Kenny Loggins music: Playing, playing with the boys/Playing, playing with the boys/ After chasing sunsets/One of life's simple joys/ Is playing with the boys). Julian Sark, Will Tippin, and Michael Vaughan form a 3-man team and tour the world playing in sand volleyball tournaments. Marshall could be their manager and develop technology that would help them train to be top notch spikers and servers. In their spare time they save the world.A couple years ago I was walking through the stands at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway on race day and who do I see? Dixon. Secret Agent Marcus Dixon. Most celebs come to the 500 and are part of the parade and makes laps around the track in the back of a Corvette. But Carl Lumbly was just there enjoying the race with a friend. He seems kind of amazed and a little pleased that someone recognized him and asked for a picture. Very friendly fellow. *sigh* I'll miss you Dixon. And Jack. And Syd, don't ever change.

okay - I ADORE Alias and if you haven't found the abc.com streaming video site so you can watch it without the garshdanged commercials, you need to. That was my biggest frustration with last night. too many commercials. but I thought Jack's final act was the greatest - trapping Sloane where he has to live through eternity...

I hate the fact that they put the series finale of Alias against the season finale of 24. I've missed most of this season of Alias so I'm just going to wait for DVD.

Exactly. It was a very stupid move on ABC's part b/c you know that most people that watch Alias also watch 24.
