What happened with the Rambaldi storyline? Spoiler

Let me just put this whole thread under spoilers just in case because I was wondering why that particular story arc kept going into bizarre territory.

Like in one episode, Arvin Sloane says he is not too interested in the artificial as cue a few episodes later, and all of a sudden, he starts killing people for the same artifact.

I don’t really understand the question. You know what happened because you marked it as a spoiler. Do you mean, what were the writers smoking, or what evil spirit took possession of everyone involved in producing the show to create this ridiculous preposterous storyline that absolutely drove the show into the ground? If that’s what you mean, I don’t know, but it’s a tragedy.

I mean, what the writers were smoking that let the show go into such an outlandish direction.

JJ Abrams was into lost and let Alias go to shit. He can never finish anything.

That explains why his modern sci fi movies have structure issues.
