LOS ANGELES (Zap2it.com) - Wednesday, Oct. 9 concluded the Elite Eight round of Zap2it's Showdown of the Network Stars and one thing became abundantly clear -- users sure do love "Alias."
Over 22,000 votes secured a win for superspy Jennifer Garner (3468 votes) over superhero (and winner of Zap2it's Showdown of the Summer Movie Stars) Sarah Michelle Gellar (2484). Meanwhile, Garner's on-screen love interest Michael Vartan beat "Friends" femme Jennifer Aniston by a margin of only 390 votes, completely overcoming his seeding at No. 10 to knock the Central Division's No. 1 player out of the running.
Garner was the top vote-getter, while "Daily Show" host Jon Stewart received the least, 2153. The closest match was the aforementioned one between Vartan and Aniston, but Matt LeBlanc left no question who your favorite friend is taking his contest against Stewart by over a 1,000 votes.
Does Garner have her eye on the prize, or can "Gilmore Girls" Lauren Graham take her? After all, her "Alias" character has a mother problem too, so it's only fair. What about Vartan? Can he finesse his way past Vartan or will he pull a typical Joey blunder?
It's up to you.
