Five seasons, and the show throws its own premise away halfway through season two.
The pilot, and straight through. What is worth knowing in advance is that this show deliberately burns its own setup. The premise for the first season and a half is that Sydney works for a criminal organisation she believes is the CIA, and is secretly a double agent against it. Most series would ride that for five years. This one resolves it in the middle of season two, on purpose, and becomes a different show afterwards.
Seen some of these already? Tap the circles to tick them off. The full list below fills in as you go.
A feature-length pilot that sets up the double life, the dead fiance and the father. Everything the series does for two years starts here.
Twenty two episodes, and the one people mean when they call this show great. The mid-season turn is the moment to watch for.
The rebuild. Opinions divide sharply from here, and the honest advice is that if season three loses you, you are not missing a hidden upturn in four.
Then what? Season four is twenty two and season five is seventeen, cut short, with the series ending on 22 May 2006. Season four started in January 2005 rather than the previous autumn, which is why its episodes are all dated the same year.
A suggested way in, not an official one. The full list is below: tick anything off in either place.
Everything you tick is saved in this browser and nowhere else. An account is the only way to put your list on another device, and the only way to get it back if this browser clears its storage. It is free and it takes an email address and a password.
Sign in on your phone, your laptop, anything, and the same list is there, kept in step as you tick. Nothing to copy, nothing to remember.
All three are about this franchise and all three are for showing, not moving. The link and the picture open SagaList with that progress displayed next to whatever the person opening it has already ticked. The code is what a friend pastes into Compare below. None of them writes anything into anybody's list.
Read only. This never changes what you have saved, and nothing leaves your browser. The code has to be their code for this same franchise: codes do not carry a name, so one from somewhere else may not be recognised as wrong.

Nothing else happens until you follow the link. If it has not arrived in a few minutes, look in your spam folder and search for SagaList. It is sent from a no-reply address on our own domain, so there is nothing to reply to.
Both addresses get an email: the new one to confirm it, and the old one so that nobody can move your account without you knowing. Nothing changes until you follow the link.
Signing out leaves everything you have ticked on this device exactly where it is. It only stops it syncing.
This removes your account, your email address, and the progress stored on our side. It cannot be undone and we cannot get it back for you.
Nothing is charged and nothing is cancelled, because SagaList does not take payments. What goes is your account, your email address and the progress synced to our side. What stays is everything ticked in the browser on this device.
