Some actors wear their roles like a second skin. Here are the ones who kept us coming back for more this season.

Irina Derevko (Lena Olin), Alias: Usually, when an actor better known for movies makes the transition to a recurring TV role, it's either a stunt or a sign of a career on the skids. But as CIA agent Sydney Bristow's nefarious mother -- who shot Sydney in the season premiere, then claimed it was an act of love -- Olin became an integral part of the series' intricate drama and displayed acting chops she hasn't shown since 1988's The Unbearable Lightness of Being.

yes, it's about time! ^_^ Lena has really deserved attention for her role on Alias, I don't think it'd have the same effect if it was anyone else but her

Did anyone check this out? Was it an ABC release or what? She is what's made Alias twice as good as it was the first year. :cool:
 
She better be returning! :thinking: Although Kevin Weisman said she would be on a radio interview, he wouldn't fib, would he???
As you can tell from my avatar, I'm a big fan! ^_^
 
Lena sure keeps me coming back for more!! I recently watched 'Ignition' and 'Queen Of The Damned' and she's great in both of those movies..hmm if only she would turn into a vampire, and bite Jack so they could love for eternity... :rolleyes: Gotta love Lena!

All hail the queen of bad@$$!
 
YAH! go lena! she is an amazing actress and almost all of my favorite alias scenes are with her in it! and i hope hope that she is signed on for another season, her acting and that storyplot are both too good to get rid of!
 
Then watch for her in Hollywood Homocide, release date here on the West Coast is June 13th. She stars with Harrison Ford and Josh Hartnett. Go Lena.
