listersgirlI'm really loving Alias this season, although apparently not enough to actually follow the complicated seekret spy plotlines.
I'm pretty much on board with the why and the how until Sark comes on screen, and then I turn into a squeeing fangirl, and lose all ability to follow plot. I am pathetic, I know. Also, I can't get over the fact that David Anders is such a youngun, and I feel slightly skeevy that I find him so hot. Which is strange, because my secret pretend boyfriend Adam Brody is even younger, and yet that doesn't bother me.
Meanwhile, am I the only person that finds Marshall supremely irritating? I should like him, because I'm normally very fond of the enthusiastically geeky techboy, but not only do I not find him funny, I find him actively annoying.
Finally, Mrs. Vaughan's eyebrows are unbalanced. The left (what we see as the right) is much closer to the centre of her face than the right. I wouldn't mention it, but that's the kind of thing that you'd think her stylist would notice.
I'm also completely obsessed with MI-5. Everything is better with an accent, y'know? I spent one Christmas with relatives in England, plus my cousin from Australia was up, and we were watching an Australian soap with my other cousin (British and much younger), who was completely enchanted by the fact that my Australian cousin sounded just like the people on the soap. She had had no idea that real people actually sounded like that.
And, because this entry is apparently all about TV, although that was not my intention when I started writing it, The O.C. starts again tonight, and I am excited. Yup, there's nothing like watching a TV show that is so far removed from my existence it might as well be on another planet. But a planet with Adam Brody.

I think it's because Sark seems so much older, then we're hit with the fact that DA is 22. As opposed to Adam Brody, who is a bit older than his screen persona.

I thought the addition of an actual life for him might have been a move away from the standard template, but jusdging by last week's episode, that isn't the case!
