Alias has it's premier on SKY1 MIX monday evenings at 9pm and
repeated saturday night/sunday morning on SKY1.
Not sure if you have missed any episodes, depends if you have been
watching the weekend repeats.

Don't know if this has been posted but Sky shifted it to MIX due to =
****-poor ratings. Looks unlikely they're going to buy Series 3. Also, =
Jennifer Garner's pay has recently doubled from $40,000 to $155,000 an =
episode.

On wages like that, she might just creep onto my radar as girlfriend =
material :-)

Don't say that. Alias is by far my favorite show on tv. What
the hell are Sky going to show instead, yet more repeats of
Star Trek.

Alias is a quality show and deserves to be treated properly.
I don't know why but all the stations it is on treat it like
****. ABC don't promote it at all, and only signed for a new
series because Jennifer Garner won a golden globe, she's now
been nominated for a emmy. C4 butchered the show to fit it
into a 6pm slot and SkyOne have now thrown it on SkyMix
without telling anyone.

I wish the public would wake up and watch this bloody show.
Though it is cool that it's still a cult hit, reminds me of
how 'The X-Files' was before it got popular and Chris Carter
sold out.

The problem is that "quality" and "popular" do not necessarily go
together. That's why Farscape got cancelled and Enterprise is still
with us.

Sky will still buy it - they will just renegociate the price and use it as
filler without a regualr timeslot - like they did with the last few seasons
of JAG and Pretender, etc. C4 no longer want it so it will only have five
to compete with for first run rights. Besides it can't be doing worse than
MutantX and Andromeda.

LOL! Whoops! should have read 'more than doubled'.

It's probably one of the few "cult" shows that really is "cult" on
both sides of the Atlantic.

Can't remember the name of the ep right now, but they really just need
to run the pre-title sequence from the one on the plane, with Syd in the
red/black gear, a few times :-)


You just know that Five'll use that one in their trailers. (Though the
moment in "Double Agent" where she comes out of the pool in a skimpy
bikini - in slow motion! - is one to savour...) :)

By the way, it's "Phase One."

Its a mystery why Alias should have low ratings. I would have expected it to
have wide appeal. Perhaps people think its a silly teenage girls show, based
on promos of Syd in underwear etc.
