If I had to choose between the two shows then I would have to continue watching Angel, since I have been watching the show for a lot longer.

Although I would miss watching Jennifer Garner.

I don't think the decision is that stupid.

I guess we here in the UK are lucky really. I would choose Alias purely because I enjoy it more. I still like Both shows though and would probably record Angel.

This thread was just moved from USA Cult (id: 99)

I suppose in the UK we are lucky not only that Alias doesn't overlap anything on a Wednesday night but also that it is repeated on a Saturday night (a little bit more than Angel gets anyway)

I like both shows, there's more history to Angel of course but Alias is new and has a great format and cast and I truly look forward to watching it with great excitement - its fresh.

I'd hate to be someone in the states having to make this decision. I suppose we are blessed in the UK that the boxsets come out within the year of the series of Angel being shown. I wouldn't imagine that Alias would make video or dvd for quite sometime.

I would imagine that Angel has enough viewers to hold its own - although in some respects it would have been nicer if UPN had got both Buffy and Angel.

But I would also imagine that Alias hits a different age group of viewers too that never watched Angel.

Or would Angel kill off Alias?

What kind of audience does Alias have in the US?.. i know Angel is doing pretty well right now..

Alias - I imagine that given its sucess It will be out on DVD soon. I suppose the most critical thing is how well it perforoms on terrestial TV, with a wider range of viewers. The Only reason the West Wing Recently came out on DVD was that Channel 4 moved it to a more reasonable hour.

Well the best episode of Alias was on last week, exciting and everything. But they're both good so once again, I mention the lucky fact of Sky having both shows.

/me nearly wets her pants with excitment at the thought of Alias on DVD!!

Careful there Sydney

It would be a good prospect though, Alias was again good tonight if a little bit cheesy with the cliffhanger

Alias was not as good last night as the week before. Talking about DVDs, I think It would look really cool having the packaging as in the title sequence - all black with Alias on Front. Just 4 more weeks till the last episode of Angel!

Well, having seen the Angel S3 finale, I will be watching at least the first few episodes of the new season, but I've only seen the first episode of Alias. I was surprised but, really liked this James Bond style spoofy action adventure show, I was unimpressed to start with but in retrospect it's something that I think I'll enjoy should I get the chance to watch more.

It reminds me almost of 24, in that it's a show that makes me really wonder "what happens next? and, who does she work for?and why? and how? and?

Buffy and Angel haven't done that for me for a while and I'm glad there are new shows coming through that I find just as enthralling.

Alias did not start at its best. The flashback episode was in my opinion the Best episode yet. Alias has gone from a watachable show to compulsive viewing. Did anyone ever watch Seven Days on BBC 2? This seemed to share some aspects with Alias.
