Okay, I am totally not watching ALIAS this season, but even so...

According to a reliable source (well, at least according to the spoiler thread on TWoP, and they're a pretty skeptical bunch about unconfirmed stuff), Lena Olin is coming back as Irina in the 90-minute season finale. Of course that's a long way away, but dude, I am so there.

Also, speaking of JJ Abrams, GIP! I don't usually like to use other people's icons unless they were made specifically for me and therefore are not likely to be spotted in a zillion other LJs, but I have no idea where I might go about finding this screencap to make my own version. Besides, I like the lighting and Josh Holloway brings teh pretty in a truly impressive way so... here it is. Thanks to littleasianpixi and foriconsake.

Oh, I still know what's happening. I read people's recaps and reviews, and occasionally I watch individual scenes when they're rumoured to be especially good and/or I can easily get hold of them. And I read fics when they show up on my friendslist. But I just can't get into sitting down with the show for a full hour, every week, right now.

I'm not averse to coming back if it suddenly takes a turn for the better, though. It's not like I hate the show, by any means; I just find myself emotionally disengaged from it at the moment, and not particularly worried about what happens to any of the characters. It's a bit like Season 9 of X-FILES, where I caught an episode here or there but really couldn't trouble myself to tune in until the finale, because watching Doggett and Reyes and Scully without Mulder just didn't interest me and from everything I'd heard Scully was Not Really Herself anyway. Still, I didn't have any trouble following the plot then, so I doubt I'll have much trouble catching up on ALIAS at the end of this season either.
