I was actually interested in Alias from the very beginning, but I didn't watch it at first because it was on at the same time as X-Files and I was an X-F fanatic, and I was stupid so it never occurred to me that I could
tape one while I
watched the other. :blink:
Anyway, on the Sundays before the X-F season started and during X-F commercials I would flip to ABC and see some of the scenes on Alias, so I knew some things before I even started watching the show. Then one day I realized that X-F
really sucked in its last season, so I decided to see if I could follow Alias. The episode was "Mea Culpa" and I was confused about a lot of stuff, but thanks to Syd's opening monologue and the scenes I had seen during my off-time from X-F, I was surprisingly not as lost as I could have been. ^_^ And that ep was so amazing that I just
had to come back for the next week.
And then, as luck would have it, a few weeks later there was an Alias marathon on ABC Family of the first ten eps and I watched them all right in a row
and I just
fell in love! I have been watching the show religiously and obsessively ever since.
Good story, huh? Wow. . . I wrote a lot. . . .
