IMMORTALITY


The big Rambaldi secret in Alias was immortality!

This seems to be slightly disappointing ending to Alias meaning Lost may have an even crappier ending.

Once again the endgame was immortality, Sloane is now immortal but trapped in a cave but no one else who is alive knows. No one alive knows that a secret immortality formula exists and apparently no one cares. Sydney's parents are dead and five years later her genius daughter and infant son are living happy with Vaughn.

In 24 Jack won the president lost and the Chinese now have Jack and probably will brainwash him and send him on a mission in next January's season premiere. So will America have to fight super-agent Jack Bauer.

Playing Catch Up On What's Left

That 70's Show: Fun It
Donna is getting over being dumped by Eric and starts acting reckless. The gang steals a fast-food clown and then break it trying to return it. Without Kutcher or Grace this show just isn't as funny.

Alias: The Horizon
I stopped watching this but now during the final season I'm watching again. By the way there was no way they could've hidden Garner's pregnancy.
Vaughn is back in memories and dreams but big bad mama, played by Lena Olin is back for real. Mama abducted the daughter and plans to take the grandbaby.

Joey: Joey and the Tijuana Trip/Joey and the Christmas Party
A hour long episode both halves dedicated to Christmas. The first has Joey and his guy pals going to Mexico and getting drunk and married. Joey and Zach marry but it's not legal but Alex has fun with it for a while.
The second one has Alex whining about Joey until he realizes he loves her and during a classic Friends moment goes to tell her and sees her kisses someone else. Alex is so hot but since she's smart and on occassion wears glasses she is written as a big fat loser. Yeah typical sitcom crap.

Ghost Whisperer: Undead Comic
A dead comic haunts the stage and all ends well when Melinda gets involved. The story was boring and I fell asleep but I TiVoed it and saw the end again which was the best part.
After the happy ending Melinda sees the laughing ghost agian and then next to him was a ghost with no face and all black trench coat that said in a creepy voice, "I have business with you." and then both of them laugh and float away.
They are building to some sort of endgame but with such weak episodes it may not be enough to to keep me watching.
Another neat thing were all the dead comics who are semi-famous including Reginald Vel Johnson from Die Hard and Family Matters.

Masters Of Horror: Cigarette Burns
This one is by John Carpenter and involves a evil movie.
A film that has been lost for years is sought by a collector. The history of this film, Le Fin Absolut du Monde, is mired with death and violence.
The film is about some evil people who have a real angel and film it being dewinged and tortured. The spilled blood of the angel transfers beyond the film and reflects all the sins of the watcher making them act upon them.
Mentally creepy and very violent, lots of upclose death.

Once on Sci-fi, Always on Sci-fI

Smallville: Arrival
Grand season premiere and weak CGI (again computer effects look bad). Clark and Chloe are off to the newly created Fortress of Solitude while 2/3 of the evil Kryptonians cause havoc in search of Kal-el.
The Kents once again get knocked around like volleyballs and Clark saves the day.
The banishment of the bad guys into the phantom zone was right out of The Superman Movies with the same spinning black diamond also the chamber where Superman’s power can be removed was similar to today’s storyline.
One of the coolest parts was Leonard Roberts (Forrest Gates) of Buffy the Vampire Slayer as bad guy #2 and James Marsters (Spike) of Angel as Brainiac.
Yesterday Amy Acker of Angel was on Supernatural.
There should be three bad guys but I think the main bad Kryptonian is in the movie Superman Returns and they don’t do crossovers.
Coming soon Dean Cain is in talks to do an appearance and they already filmed the scenes with Aquaman (some Ambercrombie & Fitch model)
Back to the episode Clark loses all his powers again and Chloe is at Lex’s mercy again.

Alias: Prophet Five
After the great season finale last year where a truck hit Vaughn and Sydney. We see it was just a plot by a rogue agent to find out that Vaughn really is and some other implausible storyline. Back to the interesting part...Vaughn is dead three times over. We then catch up to a now pregnant Sydney four months later trying to find out the truth about her dead man.
By the way the funniest part of this episode was watching them trying to cover up Garners huge belly. They try everything, the big purse, the wrap, the towel, an all black outfit and they even used a freight train to cover up the belly.
I usually only watch the first and last episode of Alias, but it is so much like Lost that it is funny.

Night Stalker: Pilot
Another no show monster show, I miss Darren McGavin.

ER: Nobody’s Baby
Danny Glover is playing nice and low key as one of the doc’s estranged father.

I missed Joey and Everybody Hates Chris, I’ll catch up on repeats I did catch a bit of the live Will & Grace it was kinda sucky…cough…Baldwin…cough.
