sundays are the best t.v. nights...

another enjoyable episode of "alias" on sunday night. well, there was nothing new that we had never seen before--the two perspectives has been done on some other shows too--and the storyline was nothing more than a plot device. but i like how they're continuing to develop lauren and sark's relationship. they are becoming great antagonists for syd and vaughn. they are literally becoming the anti-syd and vaughn. in fact, i look forward to seeing more of lauren and sark 'cause they're actually more interesting characters right now. they seem to have all the good lines, have all the fun, and get the 'hot' love scenes. ;)

an interesting point came up as i was reading a recap. why should lauren be mad at vaughn for dropping his gun, when she just had her fun with sark? the argument was that women could forgive physical indiscretions (as she saw her romp with sark as just work), but if a man gave his heart to another woman that would be inexcusable. is this true? are men the same way? or do they think sex is the ultimate sin? it was kinda funny to see how easy it was for sark to set this awkward situation up and play with people's emotions like that. it'll be interesting to see how this part of the story continues as vaughn has inadvertently openly expressed his feelings about syd in front of lauren.

anyway, i'm glad that the new episodes are back--esp. since there won't be any new episodes of "24" for a whole month. it looks like there won't be any more interruptions the rest of the season. woo! oh yeah, marshall still cracks me up.
