Clearly JJ Abrams is reading my site, because for the most part he redeemed himself with last night's episode of Alias.
Ricky Gervais was fantastic. I suppose hating a character means that an actor is really very good, and I hated his character in The Office. I suppose that's the point, however.
The thing where he used the phone codes to activate the bombs would have been new and exciting, if I hadn't seen the whole scene on 24 a good month ago, and Nina is much prettier. That's what you get when you take a three-week hiatus, ABC. You look like you're copying the competition. Poorly.
Syd? Continues to be the worse spy on the planet. Um, WHY would you tell the guy you were Julia Thorn? I mean, come on! It was just apropos of nothing.
Vaughn as Sark? Hilarious.
Sark: Agent Vaughn, do you know an 8 letter word for arrogant? Hahaha!
Blissfully, this was a Lauren-free episode. *Rejoices*
Things I didn't need to see:
Dr. Evil (because she clearly is) in bed with the Sloane. Was it wrong of me to immediately think that she's not good enough for him? Because that's what I thought. See, with Sark-Lauren in bed, it's not so much skeevy as it is laughable. This was just vile looking.
Things JJ is selling that I'm not buying:
Dixon as the head of the agency. I understand that Syd was gone for two years and that a lot can change, but come on. The guy came over from SD-6, like, 2 minutes ago. There's no way he got the gig over Vaughn and Agent Sean.
