I think I'd prefer the Sydney Bristow opener now of all times. The eps are too self-contained. Hopefully only a few more eps will be this way! It would make sense anyway. Get a bigger audience with huge promos and self-containment. Hook them in for 5 episodes are so. They are likely to watch regularly if they really like it. If they aren't interested in the stories, they might just tune in for an action fix even though they don't understand it. Then we can get to deeper plotlines because the viewers we cemented in the beginning will be hooked (hopefully).
But, naturally, I'm being idealistic :hmm:
ETA: oops misread the first post. I don't mind the theme thing that much. The music is cool, and I like the montage of aliases, even if it does look like the Sydney Bristow show. Face it. It is. Even though there are other characters, there's no show without Syd/Jen. And also, some people were like "Put some aliases of the guys in there!" Really, the guys don't wear outrageous disguises like Syd does. The most outrageous one was Vaughn's goth outfit in Unveiled. But that's it, the rest are suits or glasses or longer hair. Nothing like Syd does it.
