That might take the edge off of the gay shows leaving (and it's better than Ryan Seacrest) Plenty of good story, naked men, and Chris Meloni.

Definite candidate for Meat Friday. As well as Mr. Vartan, if you're into that sexy, smoldering, french-speaking thing, as I am. I might have to faux-tivo Alias too, as my Yankees are playing the nasty Red Sox at the same time. I REALLY am going to miss Alias more than any other show...it's been my #1 favorite for years.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14801850.post-1148305935065679702006-05-22T08:52:00.000-05:002006-05-22T08:52:00.000-05:00I agree with everything you said, Maddie. Surpris...I agree with everything you said, <B>Maddie</B>. Surprised? I think the flashforward was done very well. I thought it was a flashback, too. The whole point of it, right? Even the bar scene at the end when Jack said, "Boring!" and Karen chimed in with "Too real!" kept it from being overly sentimental, which wasn't the tone of the show. Love, love, love. Missing them.<BR/><BR/>Oooh...and <I>Alias</I> is ending really well, too! Bringing everybody back for an encore is great. LOVE Sark (hey, future MEAT, maybe). It's directly opposite the <I>24</I> finale, so I'll have to TiVo <I>Alias</I> for later, since I'm recapping <I>24</I> on <I>TMFT</I>.<BR/><BR/>www.toomuchfreetime.netMichaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05974435902564570126noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14801850.post-1148304465048143382006-05-22T08:27:00.000-05:002006-05-22T08:27:00.000-05:00I just watched the last episode again this weekend...I just watched the last episode again this weekend, so I'll repeat what I said in the Bobby post and add a few other observations.<BR/><BR/>I really liked the flash-ahead feature. I'm glad they didn't show the fight where Will found Grace with Leo again. This was much better, IMO. Friends grow apart, they get paired up and married and move away. I thought this was very realistic...I would have been disappointed if they just stayed together and didn't go after the men they loved.<BR/><BR/>A few high points:<BR/><BR/>- Karen walking in during Grace's dream, having not aged at all. Hee!<BR/>- Will's toupee falling off and him not "having time to REGLUE!"<BR/>- "Do you find them exhausting?" "Always have."<BR/>- Will and Vince having their own baby - it's what Will always wanted, and now he has Vince to share it with. I was watching an old episode last night, when Will got mad that Grace wasn't going to have the baby and instead go with Leo, and I was thinking that it's good that Grace said no.<BR/>- Grace's baby was the cutest thing EVER.<BR/>- Will and Vince's apartment changes - very subtley more manly. I loved the picture on the mantle!<BR/>- The awkwardness after W&G made up. So real...I think they really showed what growing up and moving on did to these characters. <BR/>- My favorite part, repeated again - Jack and Karen's song made me cry (even on second viewing!) Like Jen noticed, it was very much a Sean and Megan moment more than anything else. That also reminded me that Megan was a broadway musical actress, and that Sean is a trained classical pianist. The song choice and the way they sang it just made the episode for me.<BR/><BR/>Lastly, the scene where their kids meet was so great. I almost thought it was a flashback for a second. They certainly cast well for them!<BR/><BR/>I'll miss this show, but you can't escape the repeats, so that'll do.<BR/><BR/>Speaking of shows going off the air - ALIAS series finale tonight!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14801850.post-1148297379161467142006-05-22T06:29:00.000-05:002006-05-22T06:29:00.000-05:00MG, duly noted, though I only started watching SFU...<B>MG</B>, duly noted, though I only started watching <I>SFU</I> when it came out of DVD.

I mean, Sydney is very much an international <I>gayopolis</I>. We have the studios, production, talent and certainly location.
