ALIAS Cancelled :(

ABC announced the day before Thanksgiving that "The countdown to the Series Finale of Alias has begun!" The ratings for the show had been sinking since the network moved the show away from following creator J.J. Abrams' other show Lost on Wednesday nights. In addition, after star Jennifer Garner got pregnant and then married Ben Affleck the show had her alter ego, Sydney Bristow, also get pregnant (and apparentky killed off the father Michael Vaughn in the 5th season premiere!) which completely changed the atmospherics of the show.
I'm still in a state of mourning (and anger at Adelphia!) because some how my cable digital video recorder inexplicably refused to record Episode 6 of Season 5 on Thursday November 17. Does Tivo ever do that? I think I may be switching to Tivo by the end of the year if it happens again...
