My husband purchased all 5 seasons on DVD for my birthday. I can not count how many times I have watched season 1 episode one over the years. Jennifer Garner and the entire cast all hold there own. Great acting from them all. Plus I love strong female characters especially when they can kick much ass☺!!!

Alias was our favorite US CIA drama, in part because the heroine is, well, a woman named Sydney Bristow & I have a wife, 2 daughters, 2 sisters, 4 sisters-in-law, several female relatives & female friends. We all thought it was long overdue to have a female spy hero, especially since I got my daughters & wife interested in playing Lara Croft - Tomb Raider on PS/XBOX & Lara Croft was the first real female action hero in the gaming world. Alias was fun, exciting, full of tangled plots/intrigue/double agents & well developed characters & their relationships. I‘m a huge Tom Clancy fan & Alias was very similar in the way they connected global intelligence dots on their threat matrix to battle the bad guys.

Alias is literally my favorite show of all time. An intricate plot + lots of action + Jennifer Garner = A top quality show. Since the Blu-ray release of this series seems to be MIA the only way to watch them in HD is online. While I already have this entire series on DVD I think it is worth it to pick it up here so it can be streamed and enjoyed whenever and where ever. This is one series that was tight all the way through and had a very satisfying ending to wrap it up. Not to be missed!!!
