Victor Garber If you were to come to the set of Alias, you'd know how silly we all are. And I mean, silly. Victor Garber In our show you have to pay attention and know what happened before. I think it's very intelligent entertainment. It makes demands of viewers that a lot of shows don't. Victor Garber It's about these people who are inextricably together for whatever reasons, and they happen to be in the spy world. It's about relationships, and the bottom line is, that's why you care.
