Amazon.co.uk Review
It was a family affair in the second series of JJ Abrams' wonderfully inventive Alias, as super secret agent Sydney Bristow (Jennifer Garner) came face-to-face with the mother of all super secret agents--her own mother, Irina Derevko (Lena Olin), a former KGB agent, presumed dead, and more dangerous than ever. After shooting poor Syd, Irina later shows up at the doorstep of the CIA, offering to turn herself in and work for the good guys. But can she be trusted? Alias set up so much duplicity in its second series that it might have been hard to keep track of who was doing what to whom, but thanks to a great ensemble cast, fast-paced writing and direction, and some cannily cast guest stars, the show rode a stunning emotional roller-coaster and never broke its momentum, even when halfway through the season, it reinvented itself. With episode 13, "Phase One" (which aired after the Super Bowl to the show's biggest audience), Syd's original nemesis (and employer) SD-6 changes forever, yet the kick-butt agent still finds herself going up against the malevolent leader Sloane (Ron Rifkin) and his ever-changing set of henchmen. Action fans got plenty of fighting, while romantic Alias watchers swooned as Syd and the dashing Vaughn (Michael Vartan) finally consummated their unrequited love.

The critically acclaimed show owed a debt to Buffy the Vampire Slayer for its mix of action, romance, mystery, and moral quandaries, but in this series Alias truly came into its own--with a climax that came as a total shocker and prepped the show for an emotionally volatile third series. Guest stars included the phenomenal Amy Irving as Sloane's wife, Faye Dunaway as a nefarious bigwig, Christian Slater as a kidnapped scientist, and Ethan Hawke as a fellow CIA agent (or rather, two of them), but it was the dysfunctional nuclear family of Syd, Irina, and father Jack (Victor Garber) that gave Alias its heart and its strength, whether the three perfectly cast actors (all Emmy nominated) were just bickering or undertaking deadly hand-to-hand combat. --Mark Englehart

5.0 out of 5 stars Alias is Awesome, 30 Jul 2004
I've got both the 1st and 2nd seasons on DVD, and I've recently finished watching Season 3. Well, what can I say that hasn't already been said? My friend introduced me to Alias a while ago, and I'm still hooked on it. I'm currently viewing Season 2 again (You need to watch the DVDs a few times to understand what is going on). Each episode never fails to surprise. Alias is fast-paced, intelligent and even funny at times.

You won't be disappointed if you purchase this. I guarantee it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Alias - Best on DVD, 7 May 2004
By L. Heath (Battersea, London United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Alias represents the best that American television has to offer. Cinematic Production values (think X-Files), a relentless pace (ER), twists, cliffhangers and some truly jaw dropping moments (24), character depth (Six Feet Under) and the best female fight scenes (all before Uma kicked ass in KillBill).

Don't be put off by dreadful UK scheduling. C4 put it out there like an older kids adventure, while C5 (usually good for U.S. Imports), gave it the Graveyard shift.

It's the kind of show well suited to dvd and with Season One now at a discount price, nows the time to get caught up with the adventure and then get Season 2. I'm pushing back my trip to New York for the September release of Season 3! Can't be waiting for Buena Vista to pull their finger out, we'll probably get Alias 3 over here late 2005!!!!. While I'm moaning - when will Buena Vista release Golden Girls? What are they waiting for??

5.0 out of 5 stars Television doesn't get any better..., 6 Jul 2004
Alias Season 2 is, in my honest opinion, the greatest year of television ever made.

It is a bad idea to try watch Season 2 without having first seen the first year - although on its own it is outstanding, you need to have followed the story right from its inception.

In Alias Season 2, Jennifer Garner's character Sydney Bristow continues the dangerous task of bringing down SD-6, the rogue espionage group headed up by Arvin Sloane (played by the genius Ron Rifkin). This year she has far more to deal with, primarily stemming from the re-emergence of her ex-KGB agent mother, Irina Derevko (Lena Olin). The family unit formed of Sydney, Irina and Sydney's father Jack is one of the most compelling onscreen families ever.

Season 2 continues the Rambaldi mythological plotines from the previous year, and it is as action-packed as before.
The quality of the show doesn't drop - it rises. The acting is, as ever, top notch from all players, the writing is excellent and each episode is staged and shot like a polished movie. The various plots running through the year progress at breakneck pace, and it doesn't let up until the credits at the end of the astounding finale.

The show's creator JJ Abrams daringly redefined the show halfway through this season.
Although the third series of Alias hasn't been as excellent, the first two years of the show serve to show the meaning of Perfect TV.
