Alias TV Show/Vanity

[Allen In Texas Hill Country]

To take a break from all the garbage :<(((((

I finally finished the last episode of the last season of Alias. After the episode finished up popped a big poster saying thanks for the 5 years. Again, IMHO, it was the best show ever on TV. Did some searching on there ever being a remake/continuation. Almost to an actor they did not want to see a remake. They said the show was too unique. And if one still watches TV and has not seen it-----------

As an aside I also watched the last episode of Blindspot. While the series was pretty good the last episode was pretty lame. Couldn't get my hands in front of my eyes fast enough to stop from seeing the two guys kissing. LAME.

Deep into Justified and its an entertaining series about Kentucky hill life. Being that there doesn't seem to be any chance for new fall TV series I've started a small list of good old shows to watch. Next, after Justified, I was going to watch 24 but yesterday I accidentally ran across something to do with Miami and Miami Vice popped into my head. I watched a short clip and wow, oh yes. Sorry 24 but Miami Vice is next.

And then theres the Miami Vice theme. A great piece of music that still gives me the chills. From Jan Hammer. He did two versions. Both unique.

I recommend Fargo. The series, even if you’ve seen the movie.

And the short Kevin Bacon series, The Following.

“Alias’ had the best horrible fate of a bad guy ever. No quick and painless death for that one!

[redshawk]

That theme is great. Really gets your blood pumping. Same as the old Hawaii 5-0. Magnum PI is another.....

Miami Vice & Don Johnson forevah!!!

I was a huge Miami Vice fan when it first ran. Mostly to look at Don Johnson. I had my picture taken with his stuntman, it looked so much like him when I showed it to friends they didn’t know it wasn’t Don until I told them.

[ConservativeMind]

I recommend “Stingray” from the 80s, “The Mentalist,” and “Cold Case” (from CBS).

[Dahoser]

Put Hell on Wheels and Person of Interest on your list. If you're looking for three more, go for Firefly, Royal Pains and Suits.

OK, I’m writing these down too.

I was looking for a source to play the theme and I ran across, I think a Youtube site dedicated to the show. People talking back and forth. about Miami Vice.

“And then theres the Miami Vice theme. A great piece of music that still gives me the chills.”

Back in the day in a pub one night there was a kid with a synth set-up doing the entertainment. He laid down the drum track and then built the Miami Vice theme around it instrument by instrument. Sounded great.

Don’t remember Stingray. Wrote it down.

I thought Earth 2 was OK. What there was of it.

Justified was great - I love anything based on Elmore Leonard's writings. But there sure was a lot of hanky-panky going on in Eastern Kentucky. Wow.

[Chuckster]

Great show I have watched the entire series two or three times.

[EEGator]

I’ve been watching Miami Vice on Epix via Amazon Prime recently. Great show and great music.

Alias is a good one. I really like actress Jennifer Garner. I wish she had more variety in movie roles than just action hero. More like 30 Going On 13 and Miracles From Heaven.

I have missed more episodes of Alias than I have seen, so it may be time to binge the entire series and fill in what I missed.

I am currently re-watching Vega$ with Robert Urich, which ran from 1978 to 1981. These were my college years. It is almost magical, like a time machine into a lost America I wish we could return to. Women in women’s clothing. No Unisex clothes. No gay characters. No multi-culturalism for its own sake. No social justice propaganda woven into the plots. No political lectures pushing a commie liberal agenda.

It is really refreshing. It is like taking a badly needed break from everything I hate about modern life. Just life like I remember it from the early days of my life. I really miss that America. I think all of you know how badly I miss that America.
