Trivia:
After episode #2.13 (Phase One) the show's prominent use of cliffhangers at every episode's end was abandoned for a more traditional (one episode, one story) way of storytelling. This was apparently done due to demands from ABC TV execs who were under the impression that new viewers wouldn't "get" the show and feared the drop of ratings. more
Goofs:
Errors in geography: One episode has brief scene in Helsinki, Finland. The scene involves high skyscrapers, but no such buildings exist in Helsinki. more
Quotes:
[to Vaughn]
Agent Jack Bristow: And, just because you have gotten comfortable with my daughter doesn't mean you can get comfortable with me.

One of my all-time favorite shows, 18 October 2009
9/10
Author: dilly_16 from United States

I loved watching Alias. It was one of the few series where I would freak out if I missed an episode - it was just that good. Season 1 through 3 were the best seasons though and I think it got rather heavy after that - ridiculous plot lines and Sloane's crazy obsession with Rembaldi, clones...

The cast are terrific - Jennifer Garner's such a terrific actress and she's surrounded by a stellar cast - Victor Garber, Michael Vartan, Ron Rifkin..

It really is a great show - if you don't mind the confusion now and again and just watch it with an open mind, take it for what it is - a really great series!
