Jennifer Garner presenting at the Oscars!
You now have a reason to watch the Oscars Sunday. Jennifer Garner has been announced as a presenter at this year's Academy Awards. The only downside: you'll have to watch four hours of stuff you don't care about to see her. With any luck, Argo will win Best Picture, and Ben Affleck will give his wife a nice shout out. Enjoy!

The placemats at the afterparty commemorated the Argo win, and Garner told Hello! Magazine "I'm taking these home for the girls - they will love them. I'm so proud of my husband."

Alias is now on Netflix in high definition!
It's official! Months after they announced they had acquired the rights, Netflix has finally posted all 105 episodes of Alias on Netflix Instant! Best of all, the episodes are available in high definition! We've watched several episodes already, and they look great. With some episodes over 10 years old, the early episodes aren't razor-sharp like many new TV shows, but it looks good enough for us. Enjoy!

Victor Garber and Jennifer Garner, together again
Just like our last post, more Alias stars visit Victor Garber while he performs in New York. Here, Jennifer Garner stopped in after not seeing her TV dad in a while, and as you can see, she got pretty emotional. It's a great photo, and it is obvious these two share a bond. It's just too bad we'll never see them in an Alias reunion. Garber himself recently shot down any chance of that. Of course, if you saw the finale, you know why that's obvious.
Victor Garber and Bradley Cooper reunite!
Victor Garber has been performing in New York recently, and several Alias actors have come by to support him. This time, it's Bradley Cooper, who apparently holds no ill will that Spy Daddy Jack Bristow treated Will Tippin so badly all those years. Enjoy!

Not only is Jennifer Garner working on baby #3, she's working on a new show for ABC. Based on a book, it's called The Geeks Shall Inherit the Earth and follows a group of high schoolers. It appears she will serve as an executive producer but will not appear on the show, but since it is still early on, perhaps she can be convinced to play a substitute teacher!

He won the Oscar in 2010 for his score for the Pixar movie "Up." Last month, Abrams and Giacchino sat down and discussed their careers at the Hammer Museum.

Is Nikita the new Alias?
Since it looks like we won't be seeing an Alias reboot or reunion, you should be watching "Nikita" on the WB, which is a great show and really comes close to capturing the Alias feel. There's plenty of intrigue and espionage, a good helping of spy vs. spy, and of course, a heroine that kicks booty. Lindsy Fonseca really channels Sydney as her character works as a double agent in an organization not unlike the Alliance. Maggie Q may not wear as many wigs as Sydney Bristow, but when you're having this much fun, who cares?

Fringe gives a shout out to Alias!
If you watched the February 25th episode of Fringe (and if you didn't, shame on you) then you likely noticed a bit of Alias lore return. The episode, which flashed back to the 1980's, showed a young Olivia taking stress tests, including the Project Christmas puzzle Jack gave to Sydney, which of course was featured in the final episode. You can see the puzzle, partially assembled, in the pic to the left. I would imagine this isn't a mistake using props, as this is a Fox show and Alias used ABC's prop department. I would guess this is a deliberate reference. It's kind of cool to think Fringe and Alias are set in the same J.J.-Verse. Given the wide appearance of Slusho in J.J. movies and shows, one must also assume the Cloverfield monster and Captain Kirk live in this universe as well.

David Anders on Undercovers!
How did I miss hearing about this? David Anders appeared on tonight's episode of "Undercovers" called "Assassin," which is episode #7. To avoid spoilers, I won't give out what his role was, but despite being a J.J. Abrams show, he does NOT play Sark. That would have been AWESOME, but it didn't happen. NBC must not have made much noise about Anders being on the show, because I usually get some sort of alert about the workings of former Alias actors.
In case you missed it, you can watch the episode through cable and satellite systems that offer NBC TV On Demand or online.

Jennifer Garner's old dorm room now a cultural landmark
Jennifer Garner's old dorm room has become some sort of cultural landmark. Room 113 of Smith Hall at Denison University in Columbus, Ohio was Garner's home when she first attended college, and it is now a boy's dorm shared by three grateful young men. “I feel her soul in the room every time I walk in,” Guram Sakvarelidze, a student from the country of Georgia, told a reporter about living in the room. Really? I don't care how big a fan you are of Alias, that's still weird.

Affleck won't work again with Jennifer
While promoting his new film "The Town," Ben Affleck talked about the possibility of working with his wife again. The two worked together on "Pearl Harbor" and "Daredevil," before they started dating. "Jen is a great actress. I would be profoundly lucky to work with her," he said. "But something tells me that people don't want to see real-life couples together at the movies. I think audiences have a hard time suspending disbelief. They already know a whole bunch of things about the relationship you have with the other person and if you try and thrust you and another person into a fictional relationship. I think it is distracting."

Fox orders J.J.'s "Alcatraz"
Another island mystery drama for J.J.? It sure looks like it. Fox Television has ordered a pilot from Bad Robot Productions called "Alcatraz." It written by Liz Sarnoff (a Lost writer) as well as Steven Lilen and Bryan Wynbrandt (who wrote fro Kyle XY) and is described as a "dramatic series that explores the lore and mysteries of Alcatraz, the notorious San Francisco island prison." Since this is an order for a pilot, there is no guarantee this will make it to air. Fox executives must review the pilot before ordering a series, usually in the spring.
