A Moment

(Warning: mild Alias spoilers for season 1)

You know how you know you watch too much TV?

Kat and I had just finished Psych and were attempting to figure out our new show to watch. We were going to do Sports Night but finally settled on Alias as usually we watch shows I have watched, but Alias  is one that Kat has seen and I have not.

We got to the episode where Sydney decides to turn her father in and as soon as he walks into the meeting and says something about how Sydney can now learn the truth I go "Oh, it was the mother who was the spy."

Kat informs me that most people would not jump to that conclusion at once, but it makes good, economical sense to have the mother be the spy, and have Vaughn's dad be killed by this unknown agent who could be Sydney's dad -- too many characters can drag a show down.

So yes. I watch too much television because I knew without any real foreshadowing about this secret on Alias. I am a giant dork.

  2. Also, really it was because Alias is more like Psych and and and withdrawal.
