I downloaded it and just fell in love. I keep listening to it over and over and over. Anyone else have song recs for me? I have lots of iTunes gift cards to burn!<\/p>\n<p>Aahhh, yes. Wednesdays could possibly be the best night of TV for me. <i>Lost<\/i> AND <i>Alias<\/i>. Phew, jam-packed combination.<\/p>\n<p>Very sleepy, so some quick comments.<\/p>\n<p><b><i>Lost<\/i><\/b><br \/>\nI need answers! What happened to Claire?! I&#8217;ve been pretty good about not reading spoilers for this show but I think this episode has driven me to the edge. Not to mention the fact that this was another Kate-centric episode &#8212; when are we going to get any backstory for Boone? Hmm? I did enjoy the interaction between Sayid and Shannon though. A very unexpected pairing that I could totally get behind. But what was with Boone&#8217;s creepy stalker stare? Dun, dun, dun&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><b><i>Alias<\/i><\/b><br \/>\nI thought the premiere was excellent. I still have lingering Season 3 disappointment but <i>Authorized Personnel Only<\/i> infused the show with some fun again. I got a total Season 1 vibe from it all, which can only be a good thing. Plus, Syd\/Vaughn! What can I say, I&#8217;m a complete sucker when it comes to that ship. The addition of Nadia to the &#8220;team&#8221; is great as well. It seems that they&#8217;re heading towards some kind of Syd versus Nadia showdown (not a spoiler, just something I picked up in their closing scene) but I sure hope that they can become friends. Syd needs that in her life. As for the big reveal about Irina, I have to say I&#8217;m not surprised. It&#8217;s getting pretty clear that Lena Olin&#8217;s not coming back so the writers took advantage of the situation by getting rid of the need for Irina to show up again and creating another complication for Syd. I love Irina but last season&#8217;s IM messages between her and Jack were very eyeroll worthy. Also wished that there would have been more Weiss and that we could have seen a glimpse of Sark. *sniff* But the biggest thing that bothered me were the new opening credits. Blech. Too. Much. Syd. (And this coming from a huge fan of both Syd and Jennifer Garner). Oh well, I&#8217;m just glad the show is back.<\/p>\n<p>I can sleep happy now.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>First off, many many thanks to Barry for reccing Howie Day&#8217;s Collide.
