Best News of the Day!

Alias is one of my favorite TV shows, so I'm glad it's returning in full-force this year. More from MediaLife:

"Just last spring, the future of J.J. Abrams’ cult favorite 'Alias' seemed rather murky. But ABC has rewarded Abrams, the man behind this year’s mega-hit 'Lost,' with a plum spot for his Jennifer Garner drama – the lead-out spot behind 'Lost.' Granted, that spot loses some of its allure in January, when Fox switches its 'American Idol' results show from 8:30 Wednesdays to 9. 'Alias' will switch from Sundays, where it was replaced at 9 p.m. by 'Desperate Housewives,' to Wednesdays at 9 p.m. when it returns Jan. 5. That will bump 'The Bachelor' franchise to Monday nights, where it will anchor a new night of reality post-'Monday Night Football.'"

When I heard the news that Alias wasn't coming back in the fall because a show called Desperate Housewives would be replacing it, I was pissed! Now Desperate Housewives is one of my top 5 shows, and I can't wait to watch Alias develop with no weeks off.

By the way, there's lots of rumors on the internets about Alias, including:

- Sydney won't talk to her daddy at all this season
- The show is going back to its first season underground roots
- More focus on Sydney's home-life, including the return of Will (!!)
- Someone important will be killed off by the end of the season

Bring it!
