I take it Rimbaldi artifacts are no longer

[AndyD]

going to be one of the driving plots of the show? Seems like the show has taken a complete 180 in it's fourth season. It doesn't even have cliffhanger ends anymore which gave the season a more "24" feel.

Not that it's a bad direction. Shows seem a little more grounded now but I'm kinda wondering where the hell the writer was going with the first three years of the show. Does anyone know if the Rimbaldi plot will be dropped completely?

^ You get lost on the way? lol

Moved to Media. For real this time

I doubt they will drop the whole Rambaldi thing.

As for the direction of this season, i read somewhere that they wanted to 'get back to basics' And not every episode in the past seasons had cliffhangers. We'll just have to wait and see.

no the Rambaldi thing has always been sorta an ever so often thing....it will show up...

[DjmUK]

I hope Rambaldi sticks with Alias, it'll be confusing otherwise.

[Gabureiru]

It got mentioned in the second episode (that is the way that Sloan got his current position) so I doubt it will be discarded

Can someone edit the title, this is kind of a spoiler, we havent got the new series of Alias as yet in the UK.

I'm avoiding the 24 thread for this reason only

Well do you think clicking on the thread helped things :) I don't think I gave anything anyway in the title. It could have been anything. Sorry if I spoiled anything but the ability to edit. A mod will have to do that for me (sorry to keep you guys busy...I didn't realize I wasn't in the Media Section ;) )

Not really. In the first season yeah but the third season definitely dealt with it a lot. So far, there was just a quick mention of it from Sloan in the first episode.

looks that way...just doesn't have the "must see" feel to it anymore though. And what was the whole point of doing a whole "black ops" thing if by the second episode everyone was going to transfer over? There are not doing anything different than what they did in the past three seasons.

Anyway, I still enjoy the show. Not as much as I used too though but still one of the better shows on TV.

So far I have been REALLY dissapoint in this season. I find myself looking forward to LOST much more...

I have been a faithful fan since episode 1 as have countless others.. Now it seems they left us all hanging out to dry. Things that are left up in the air and/or annoying...

1) Sloan being the head of a new CIA division. WTF? Maybe after Saddam Hussein is tried, we can make him the head of US Homeland Security.

2) Sloans daughter and he being so close. Again, WTF? I am sorry I had to torture you last season, lets be friends now, ok?

3) Rimbaldi? Who? What did Sloan see at the end of Season 2 that changed his life?

4) Sloan and Dixon working together again? WTF? Hey thanks for killing my wife, lets work together now!

5) Dixons kids are where exactly?

6) Is Will still in witness relocation? Why exactly?

7) What happend to The Covenant?

8) The new theme song/remix stinks. I understand sex sells, but do we need a photo parade of Sydney duringthe credits? What about the other actors/actresses on the show?

More? Gimme time. Anybody else?

[Gabureiru]

although I enjoy it, I agree with wolvereen. I preferred the other intro

[coolchan]

3) Rimbaldi?  Who?  What did Sloan see at the end of Season 2 that changed his life?

Well... I think the word he saw in the machine was "peace". Sloan said that at som point in season 3.

And it's Rambaldi.

SPOILER (select with your mouse to see)

Episode 4.08: Echoes

Anna Espinosa steps back into Sydney's life with a bang as the Rambaldi riddle creeps back into view.

Don't expect Will to come back. I'm pretty sure he was taken out of the show permantly (cept for that cameo last year).

And yeah, Lost has more of my attention now BUT I fear that if the show isn't succesful enough that they will tinker with the plot as well and leave unanswered questions. It's like they are writing the scripts on the fly instead of having a whole story fleshed out.
