Alias 10 Years Anniversary Celebration :)

Welcome to the 10 years of Alias anniversary thread!


“My name is Sydney Bristow. Seven years ago I was recruited by a secret branch of the CIA called SD-6. I was sworn to secrecy, but I couldn’t keep it from my fiance. And when the head of SD-6 found out, he had him killed. That’s when I learned the truth: SD-6 is not part of the CIA. I’ve been working for the very people I thought I was fighting against. So, I went to the only place that could help me take them down. Now I’m a double agent for the CIA, where my handler is a man named Michael Vaughn. Only one other person knows the truth about what I do, another double agent inside SD-6. Someone I hardly know - my father.”

~ Sydney Bristow, Alias



Do I really have to say much more? I feel like Syd already told us everything we need to know So let's just celebrate the fact that one of the greatest TV shows ever premièred today 10 years ago

I have been an Alias fan since September 30th, 2001. That's right! I have been a fan since the pilot episode aired, exactly 10 years ago. From the very first moment when we saw Sydney & her red hair emerge from the water, I was hooked. And over the next 5 years, Alias became my whole world. Sydney & Vaughn were the only couple in the world I cared about. Jennifer Garner was my role model. Michael Vartan was my future husband. But 5 years has passed since the show ended & I have moved on to other "fandoms", other role models, & other future husbands, but I will never forget the impact Alias has had on my life. It will ALWAYS be my favorite show & Syndey & Vaughn will ALWAYS be my favorite "ship". Some shows & ships have come close, but none of them will ever compare to Alias & what it means to me. I still wish the show was still on today & we would be starting the 11th season this year, but as the saying goes, "All good things must come to an end" and that's how I felt when Alias ended. It was a good thing & it did have to end, but I am so glad it will live on forever in my memories & DVDs! Happy 10 year anniversary to Alias! I hope we never lose sight of the girl in the red wig.

For the Love of Alias
I watched part of season 2 and 3 when it originally aired then unfortunately stopped watching it for some reason I don't remember. I always wanted to try it again so I rented S1 disc 1 from Netflix, and the early cliffhangers totally hooked me. I think the relationships along with the action and cliffhangers made the series so awesome. I love spy stuff, but without the character development and drama-filled relationships, it would have been just another action show. I love serialized drama with a continuing storyline so this was right up my alley! Michael Giacchino's music score was a bonus! My favorite thing about the show is Victor Garber's portrayal of Jack Bristow and his relationships with Sydney and Irina Derevko.

Random fun

Alias - Episodes

"These Episode Guides summarize each episode with screen captures and captions. Hopefully you can follow the story, and if we make a few jokes, it's all done with good intentions."


TV Tropes - Alias

Examples:

Action girl: Mainly Sydney, but also Irina, Lauren, Nadia, Rachel, Anna Espinosa and Allison Dorren. Really, it would be easier to name the female characters who aren't Action Girls.

Bad Ass Family: Almost half the characters are related somehow, and sometimes they even go on missions together. It's dangerous enough to mess with Sydney, but if you mess with Sydney and Jack at the same time, you're just asking for trouble.

Chronic backstabbing disorder: Irina, Sloane and Sark.

Careful with this one - you'll spend AGES there


Ok, if you want to post more stuff you're always welcome and now: party!

Thank you, D

And I just stumbled across this:

TV Pilots That Are as Good as Most Summer Movies

Two things though: it's SYdney, and how is this more far-fetched than James Bond The rest

Thank you! I'm Jill, its nice to meet you!

We should do something cool to celebrate, like um... say some favorite quotes or moments or something. Or like someone can say part of a quote and someone else has to finish it like. Or maybe you can think of something better

Hi Jill - I'm Taschka

That's true - and there are so many great quotes to choose from I'll make a top 10 list of my favourites - if I can narrow it down
