ALIAS blows up its premise after the Super BowlDescription
Alias: "Phase One"
Just in time for the Big Game, we're covering when the classic J.J. Abrams spy thriller Alias scored the treasured Super Bowl lead out slot... and aired its wildest episode that not only demolishes its original premise and radically retools the series, but also attempts to function as a self-contained entry point for new viewers. We talk about the history and importance of Super Bowl lead out programs, Alias's battle for narrative accessibility, Jennifer Garner's sexy outfits and incredibly emotive performances, all the daddies, and why this is secretly one of the most gimmicky episodes we've covered.
