Alias

It was with a huge amount of excitement that I noticed Alias was returning to its erratic run on Channel 5 on UK terrestrial TV to begin Season 3. After waiting for so long for it to come across from Satellite I was finally put out of my misery this week, and what a start it was.
Finally, after all this time, we began to find out what had happened to Sydney after waking up in a foreign land some two years after being knocked out, without a single memory of what had happened.

This is a hard, gritty cop show, imagine NYPD Blue on speed then drop all the nice happy endings and swallow a bitter pill of hard assed reality and you've got this show.
It's seriously gripping, with shocks and suspenseful moments at every advert break, it builds the real life morally grey characters around the events of an experimental Police Squad based in some of the toughest neighbourhoods in the city.
