Forums Scripts & Popups Script breakout and return?

Where exactly is it halting? You've got a halt command right after the call to the tvrage alias so it seems likely that the condition is true and that's where the script is stopping.

If it's definitely stopping within the alias itself then you need to show the relevant code since there must be either a halt command inside the alias or an identifier using two $ signs which will automatically halt if the identifier evaluates to $null (eg. if your alias is using something like $$3 and there's no third parameter then it will halt the script).
