Very VERY well done Season Premiere, given circumstances
JJ did exactly what he should have done, a BIG HUGE over-the-top, fun, action-packed season premiere to lure in new viewers
"At Last" - WELL SAID!!! The beginning scene was amazing, and all of us had to admit, Alias is back AT LAST!
Shanghai - very suspenseful, although I have to admit, Syd's transformation was a little too over the top and needless, but never the less, Sydney thinking on her feet is AWESOME
Syd gets fired - SUCH a tense scene I LOVED IT!
APO - the new office is great, it looks amazing! The train station, the "white", everything looks very very good
Sydney and Vaughn - their relationship has taken such a spin. Although they rushed it a little, it was beautiful
Irina's dead? - Sydney's scene with Vaughn when she explained about the papers teared me up. Great ending to the first part
The Shintaro Sword - arguably the coolest mission ever on ALIAS. The music, the heist, everything was well put together and executed.
The Set-up - possibly one of the most suspenseful missions ever on ALIAS! And Sydney's sword fight with Rick Yune in the meat house was GREAT!!!
Nadia - You can definitely tell that she's Sydney's sister. I can't wait to see more from her
Weiss - NOT IN APO? Oh well, hopefully he'll come in soon!
Overall: Strong, even though lacking some heart. Absolutely amazing premiere, can't wait for SEASON 4 !!!!!
