J.J. Abrams is going to be a busy guy this fall; he'd better pay attention to Lost or we're going to be very, very grumpy. And speaking of J.J. Abrams, what's with putting the Alias, 2-hour series finale on a Monday night?? (It airs Monday, May 22, 2006 on ABC). Alias fans (and that includes us) are not happy with the way this series has been treated this year.
