i keep wanting to vote, but its to hard to decide when you havn't watch the episodes in a while, but i recently watched season three and four so they're fresh in my mind, so i'll be voting this week. OH, and its stiffling over there? here in sunny california it's breaking records with over 110 degrees.

Nice selection of winners. I'm surprise that the Geisha in Counteragent was not selected as best Alias.

And yes, it HOT all over! How can I go about getting the cds?

Hey..great pics all around. A lot of them were my own...I agonized over Marshall's best gadget, but had to go with the jacket with the parachute, just because that whole scene was great.

You are killing me!! I will have to sneak in some season 3 watching this week.

No, I would like to continue with the books, but I am overloaded with blog prep right now. I need to get the 3rd book soon. I might order it today and read next week. What are you thinking Jenn?

Girlscout said...

Hahaha! You are so funny! I think I might continure to read them, but maybe not post as much on them. I want to get to the APO series at least to see if they are any better.

YAY! I finally picked many of the more popular moments (I missed a ton with the Season 1 vote)! I don't have the DVDs, so I was trying to remember by reading recaps and that just doesn't cut it.

Forgot about the Marshall vest with parachute. I voted for the turbo suitcase thing, but I would probably change it to the parachute. That was an awesome episode.

Girlscout, what about a category for best stunt/special effect? Or would that go under best scene? For example, I love when Irina jumps off the building and shoots her way into the 18th or 19th floor, and in Season 4? when Syd is in the red lingerie and opens that plane doors and manages to jump out without being sucked into the engines, or when the team jumps out of the plane and sees the giant meuller device at the end of S4. There are so many GREAT stunts/special effects!

Girlscout-I have a question. For your pick for favorite line you had Sydney saying Sloane was a pledge on her life-is that the line or is it plague on her life??? Just wondering.

Father/Daughter Moment:

I loved the scene where Jack, knowing that things would soon get uncomfortable for him, calmly tipped Sydney off to the fact that he/they had been compromised. I loved how calmly he delivered his line to Sydney. I loved Syd's instant recognition of the meaning of Jack's seemingly innocuous remark about taking the alternate route in. I loved the panic in Sydney when she heard those words. I loved the way she pleaded with Dixon to trust her and to help save her father's life. I loved the fact that Dixon, with his head still spinning from Sydney's revelation, did as she asked and calmly accepted what was about to happen.

What an amazing episode of Alias!
