Two of my favorite shows start(ed) new seasons in early January: Alias premiered last night, and 24 starts on Sunday. I know lots of people that love Alias OR 24, put few like them both. I'm not sure why this is...maybe because 24 stretches the limits of credibility, while Alias totally explodes reality, so an individual's preference may be driven by her/his views on pushing/reworking vs. discarding boundaries. Last year I liked 24 much better than Alias, so I guess I'm more about playing with rules rather than ignoring them altogether....

You have to put into perspective how hard it would be to write a series that is 24 hours long of 24 hours in a day, and manage to carry a consistent story line, without ever getting boring.
