Tis the week after Christmas and the perfect time of year to pick up next year's calendars. One of the better calendars out there in the category of television shows would be the "Alias 2004 Wall Calendar." True, this calendar is about more than Jennifer Garner, but then "Alias" is about more than Sydney Bristow. Granted, they could easily fill up a calendar with all of the many looks of Sydney Bristow ("the black one" remains a personal favorite, and there is something about the red wigs more than the blue), but there is something to be said for any calendar that has months featuring Victor Garber and Lena Olin. Younger fans will be more excited by Michael Vartan and Bradley Cooper, but I like the veteran character actors like Carl Lumbley. Appropriately, given the convoluted plots of the show, this is one of the more informative calendars out there, and, of course, any help is appreciated. Bonus points for including both Cooper and Merrin Dungey, both of whom are apparently out of the show before we get to the new year. This wall calendar is not very functional if you really want to keep track of birthdays, appointments, and whatever, but that is clearly not the purpose for this one.

I purchased this calendar because I love the show, and because I wanted some more images of Jennifer Garner. Unfortunately, she is only on two of the twelve months. I realize that perhaps many of you out there would rather have all of the other cast memebers featured, and if that's the case, this is the wall calendar for you. But, if you were hoping for lots of shots of Sydney, I recommend you keep looking. Also, for those of you who like to write-in various upcoming events on your calendar, the available space is very often taken up by lists of various holidays on that day.

If you like all the previous Alias merchandise, then you will definetly love this. The vibrant orange color in the backround brings out Sydney Bristow (Jen Garner) and the rest of the characters. All the pictures are spread out, which gives it a pleasing look. There about 3 small pictures and one large on each page, not to crowded.

A must for any Alias fan
