I never watched this show when it was new, but I find Sydney and Jack to be wildly incompetent, just magically lucky.

How many missions does Sydney have to shoot her way out of because she made a mistake or a really bad choice?

I am enjoying the show, but sometimes it just seems like way too much.

    Watched this show when I was younger and I remember loving it (even had the PS2 game). I think a lot of shows back then really suffered from having to pump out 24 episodes per season

      I think you are right with some shows, but I really miss the longer seasons with the episodic types of shows like Star Trek or Buffy.

    Season 3 is having some problems

    Spoiler for Season 3

    First of all I AM enjoying the show, but making Vaughn’s Wife a sleeper agent just feels lazy. There was a really solid drama there with that conflict, but making her a spy just breaks the whole thing. You no longer have any sympathies for her. And frankly, it makes some of her earlier actions completely nonsensical.

    Now that I’ve checked through your profile and history it seems you’re more interested in “seeding content” rather than getting the real answer so have fun with your weird mission my guy.

      While I am trying to build the communities in which I am invested, I only post things that I enjoy engaging with. This post is because I am watching Alias and wanted to hear some other opinions since I find some of that aspects of the show befuddling. I don’t feel the need to look through your post history and question your sincerity, but if you’d like to talk about Alias I’d love to do that.

      What a weird response. First a reminder that comment sections aren’t exclusively for the OP but also for people interested to see replies too. Like so many people are boycotting reddit except for “when it answers obscure questions” And idk OP seems to be really into media and wants lemmy to be successful and active so… is posting a lot about their interests.

      I really don’t get why you would spend time to explain why you won’t answer the question like it would be a waste of your time to do so.

    Hokay… Almost done with season 3 and boy is this show suffering from the classic the J.J.Abrams “we have no plan” story structure.
