From Watch With Kristin:

From berogers2005: Any Alias news?
This just came across the AP wire: "Some tight-lipped spy Jennifer Garner turned out to be. Garner has spilled the beans about Alias being renewed for another season. ABC won't announce its fall schedule until next month. Garner tells Zap2It.com that they've hired new writers and new castmembers, 'so it's happening.' " Of course, those of you who've been coming to my little rag of a section knew that long ago. Producers have been working on the next season for a few weeks now. And it looks like Melissa George will only be in a few episodes, while Mía Maestro (Spy Sis) will be a regular.

From justine: Do you know if Lena Olin will be returning to Alias yet? What about Isabella Rossellini?
I believe Isabella is coming back for one more, but I haven't heard anything firmed up on Lena, despite a whopping $200,000-an-episode offer.

From dredlockmama: Let's talk about that box on Alias that says Irina. Do you know what's inside?
I can tell you this: Irina means "peace" in Russian. So, when Sloane said the Rambaldi machine gave him a one-word message, he may or may not have been referring to Spy Madre.

From mb20fan76: I thought that there was some "passenger" inside the box. What's the passenger?
The passenger is the sister, spawn of Irina and Sloane, though I'm pretty sure she's not in that box, unless she can do that thing I once saw on That's Incredible!

From nycgirl: Please, some more Alias news.
A little expansion on last week: Vaughn is going to bug the bedroom and find out his wifey is actually Mrs. Über-Psychobitch-from-Hell (as we've known all along). Vaughn is then captured by the Covenant, and that's when Sark and Lauren torture him. If you hurt those sexy six-pack abs, I swear to god...But, here's the unexpected part: Lauren has a crisis of conscience and helps Vaughn escape, although, after that, he is once again recaptured.

From laurenwood: More Alias!
Vaughn tells Sydney about the prophecy.

A little more Alias News..

From juice_0014: Who is Nadia working for? The Covenant? Sloane?
Okay, since you Alias freaks won't let up on this, I will answer--what is it with you people and that show? (Hee-hee.) Anyway: Yes, and yes.

From ezrydyr: Alias! Vaughn didn't bug the bedroom. He found a smoking gun...er...wig. What's the deal?
Gun and wig! Gun and wig! I believe the bugging is coming, my friend. He helps out the CIA, naturally, and tries to gather info on the Covenant, and then ends up being tortured by the missus and her delicious Sarky-poo.

From freakygirl: Anything else on Alias? Give us something good!
Write this down: E.M.E.T.I.B. Now read it backward.

From freakygirl: Bite me! Give us scoop!
That was scoop my friend--"Suit-and-Glasses" (as my much loved mole likes to call him) is coming back, and he's somehow tied to Katya Derevko (Isabella Rossellini). Oooh! And speaking of being tied to Katya--guess who gets horizontal with Irina's sister-friend?

From reddywhipper: Jack?!
Yes. Spy Daddy is finally getting some lovin'.

From mclapp: Shame on you, Kristin! Any real Alias news?
Say wha?! I've given so much it hurts. Sniffle, sniffle.

From caitlinelizabeth: Who is Suit-and-Glasses on Alias?
The evil Asian dentist. Another fave: "One in five, bitch! One in five!" Oh, I miss Bradley so.

From mmt006: Any more Alias scoop, TV mave?
Fo' sho: Vivica Fox's character returns, but Lauren kills her.

From beebeegirl: Who is the Passenger? Is it Syd?
No, the Passenger is Sydney's half-sister. (I believe her name is Nadia.) And Sloane is fully aware of the truth--that Nadia, not Sydney, is his daughter with Irina. (Jack is really Syd's Daddy dearest. Whew!) Sloane uses his knowledge of Nadia's location to get himself out of that whole nasty execution thing.

From sedrine: Is Sydney's sister good or evil?
Remember that whole prophecy about how "at vulgar cost, this woman will render the greatest power unto utter desolation"? Well, they weren't talking about her having a bad hair day or something. This girl is about as evil as they get, from what I understand--and Syd has to try to beat her down.
