Summary: one of the best tv shows ever
Review: This is a must buy...Best Tv show on at the moment.
People often mention Buffy the Vampire slayer and Angel as not being as good as shows as alias and X-files, people often forget that Buffy and Angel are for all people, young and all. Alias is not. Buffy is a very daring show. That's why a lot of people don't think it's in the same highed as shows like Alias.
Buffy was in the shadow, because if it's stupid name. Alias is a top show and have the best actress ever on it, Jennifer garner. It's a must have show and If you loved BTVS/angel and the X-files. Then this is a must buy. If it wasn't for BTVS, alias would never have been. We have everything to thank, buffy for. Course now we have strong female roles, finally on TV, That's because of Buffy. Alias is simply amazing and is a top notch. And is a very realistic show as well. BUY it NOOOOOOOOOOW!!! That's how good it is.

Summary: An Awe Inspiring Show
Review: Alias is a truly remarkable show. Created by a writer who's cult fame and praise rivals Joss Whedon of Buffydom, J.J. Abrams created an awe inspiring show with Alias. The first season has twists and turns that keeps the viewer guessing the whole way. Rambaldi, a fictional scientist from the 15th century, who's writings and inventions continue to plague the main characters throughout the third season and beyond. The show's true creative stride won't come until next season, however, the first season has the beginning necescary for comprehension, and is also great.

Summary: Alias a Fine Spy Drama
Review: You would not expect a daring, fresh show like Alias to be produced and sustained for so long by one of the three major networks. Radical shows like FOX's Dark Angel and CBS's Wolf Lake were quickly cancelled. I don't know how this show wound up on the same schedule as the usual safe, clunky, family fare, but I'm glad it did. Watching Alias is absolutely addictive. It is like being trapped on a rollercoaster where once you think you will be able to disembark, the ride starts up again. And each ride has new twists, turns, and tunnels. Every aspect of this show is excellent. And as good as the writing, the hypnotic throbbing score, the sets, photography, and characters are, the vehicle could not be carried without its star, Jennifer Garner. Garner's athletic ability, intelligence, vulnerability, and sweetness make her character Sydney Bristow a TV legend. Her angst-filled relationship with her father is what sets this series apart from any other. Usually the only deep relationship a woman in a series is allowed to have is a romantic one. Why they haven't done an Alias, the Movie is beyond me. An important lesson from watching Alias is that nothing is what it seems - or is it?

Summary: In short
Review: A painful cross between a videogame and a soap opera, supervised by an anime robot. Watch it to find out why you don't watch TV.

Summary: Alias has me hooked!
Review: I watched the first episode and was hooked. I saw the complete 1st season on TV and couldn't wait for the second. I missed the second season opener as well as the whole season. I bought the first season to catch me up and to prepare me for the second, which I also bought. I am so addicted. When I get home from work, my husband and I watch several episodes at a time and everytime we agree that we will watch the others tomorrow, it ends with us wanting more. We watch it until we are exhausted and it's great that we can continue where we left off with no commercials. I hope Alias continues for many years. No matter what, I will buy all the seasons. Can't wait for Season 3 on DVD!

Summary: Superb Series Compelling Viewing
Review: After watching the first episode I was hooked. It is great to have the entire season in one handy package. The quality is excellent and the extras very good. The audio commentray by the cast is both jovial and informative. I did not know what was coming next. The cliffhanger endings of each episode make you want to jump right in to the next one. BUY IT!

Summary: Talk about Alias Addiction!
Review: I watched the first series on a fluke--I had remembered that Jennifer Garner had won an award after the first year and I had to see if she was really so good. WELLLLLLLLL, was I in for an unbelieveable surprise! The series is phenomenal...all six discs were done in two days (a weekend I'll never forget, like my honeymoon or something)...and I could NOT get enough. It kept me up nights with every exciting cliff-hanging ending, and yes, in pops the next disc while I down coca cola to keep me up just one more hour! I love this show, and I'm starting now with the second series and I just can't wait! Buffy the Vampire Slayer and James Bond and La Femme Nikita have met their match...Sydney Bristow kicks ... and is beautiful to boot! If you like espionage, super-cool high tech action, fight scenes, emotional turmoil, intricate storylines that keep you involved, well-developed, highly charged characters, great costumes and disguises (not to mention a beautiful leading lady and quite a few other beautiful actors), you will love Alias. Do not hesitate one more minute and get it. The DVD has tons of great extras, even a gag real and footage on stunts--including Jennifer Garner's feelings on doing many of her own stunts...terrific!

Summary: Alias is AMAZING!!!
Review: When I first started watching alias I was expecting it to be fun to watch but just like all the other shows out there that have to do with the CIA. Well, I was VERY wrong at that. Everyone in this series are superb actors and not once do you think to yourself (Well that wasn't very believable). You'll love the great acting and wonderful story line of this series. All I can say is.. BUY IT!!

Summary: an excellent, but complicated program
Review: "Alias" is one of those television programs that I had no interest in watching when it first aired, but as there has been good buzz about the show I was able to give it a chance on DVD. It's a good thing that I did because right from the first episode I was sucked into the story and each episode left me wanting to know the explanation for what just happened and what was going to happen next. Sydney Bristow (Jennifer Garner) is an agent for SD-6. When she was recruited to SD-6 she was led to believe that it was a covert branch of the CIA. Except for those at the highest levels of SD-6, all the agents believe that they are working for the CIA. They are all wrong. When Sydney told her fiancé that she worked as a spy for SD-6, they had him killed. It was only then that she learned that SD-6 was the very enemy she thought she was fighting against. She went directly to the CIA and now she works as a double agent to help bring down SD-6. If this sounds a bit complicated, just remember that we learn all of this in the first episode of the series. It gets even more complicated from there. Sydney also learns that her father (Victor Garber), whom she has never been close to, is not only a member of SD-6 but also a double agent with the CIA. Sydney is still given missions from Arvin Sloane (Ron Rifkin), but her CIA Handler Michael Vaughn (Michael Vartan) gives her the CIA's counter-mission for her true objective. So, Sydney is working both sides on her missions, but is also trying to keep the fact that she is working against SD-6 from her partner Marcus Dixon (Carl Lumbly), who believes that SD-6 is part of the CIA and is one of the good guys. These missions gradually build the greater story arc of the season/series with something called the Rimbaldi artifact. These artifacts are amazingly advanced and prescient for something designed and created over 500 years ago. The major world powers (both official like CIA and the underworld like SD-6, K-Directorate) are looking for these artifacts because of the incredible potential to shift the balance of power one way or another. While this is happening, Sydney's friend, Will Tippin (Bradley Cooper), a newspaper reporter, is investigating the death of Sydney's fiancé. Since just learning about SD-6 was enough to get the fiancé killed we know that Will is treading into dangerous waters. This storyline often takes a back seat, but it is interesting to see what he will be able to uncover and how this may affect his relationship with Sydney. At many times this can be a confusing show because you are not quite sure how everything connects to the larger picture, but it is easy to stay interested in the show for that very reason: you want to know how it all comes out in the end. To make matters worse, the ending of nearly episode is such a cliffhanger that even when I think I have watched my last episode of the day I just have to watch one more to find out how the cliffhanger is resolved. It is the mark of good television that keeps me coming back for more. I would put this show with "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" as a show that is really good but is not quite as serious as something like "The Sopranos" or "The West Wing". It deals with serious subjects and has action and adventure, but it doesn't fit neatly into a genre. All in all, I think this is an excellent show and I look forward to watching season two.

Summary: Alias Season 1
Review: Alias is, in my opinion, the best show on television. I just recently started watching the show this season (season 3), and so of course I had to buy this season to see how it all began. I was HOOKED! I watched all twenty-two episodes in three days, it was that good. It has a little bit of everything in it - romance, great clothes, mystery, intrigue, betrayal, poignant family relationships, angst...just everything. This is a great show, and the season one DVD's are a must have.
