Ok this may not be particularly funny, even to those who have seen the program... but I have been watching Alias recently and I just had to make this:
I think about 80% of the episodes end on huge cliffhangers... some of which don't get resolved until almost a 3rd of the way through the next episode, i've basically speed watched through the first three seasons because despite the rather ridiculous Da Vinci code stuff (much of the plot so far has revolved around a man call Rambaldi from 500 years ago who was some kind of prophetic genius) every time I get to the end of an episode I have to start the next one to find out what happens.
