Alias Season 3 not on Sky

Can anyone confirm that Sky in their infinite wisdom have
not got the rights to S3 of Alias?

I read on a different group that it was stated on one of
their teletext pages that they will not be showing S3.

If this is true then Sky can **** right off, £40 and I dont
get to see the best show around. *******!!

Hmmm, the best show around? Bit of a stretch for Alias, isn't it? I
tried the first series, but gave up about two thirds of the way through
- way too implausible for my liking. Oh, and the opening sequences
always cracked me up - the exploding car, whose bonnet blows open only
to expose a total lack of engine block - pleeeeze.

That was in S1 and the show doesnt have a big budget like
'24' etc. It seems that people can rave about '24' yet Alias
does everything that '24' does but so much more.

If implausible storylines cause you to switch off then you
might as well get rid of 99% of the shows on tv. Alias has a
great blend of action and a fantastic evolving storyline. It
reminds me a bit of the X-Files in it's first few seasons,
just a shame that the show has been treated so badly.

Well, we'll have to agree to differ. Alias doesn't do it for me, but if
it does for you, great!

Surely you'd have figured that was obvious given that it did so badly on
season 2 that they shoved new episodes onto their repeat channel? (However
galling that might be)

The problem I have with Sky's reasoning is that they basically said
the same thing about Buffy with 6 episodes of season 2 to go ,and it
took the fans a year to get them to show the episodes ,and we know how
popular Buffy turned out to be for Sky in the long run
