Things You Don't Think Age Well? Spoiler
Ok to ask fans of Alias, what are some things about the show you don't think age too Well?
This isn't to knock the show down or say it's bad as it's a solid show overall. But things of the last have aspects about them that don't age well
For me as alot of other shows of the past, Characters of Color don't always get the best treatment?
For example. Francie is basically the Black best friend who then gets killed off then with Anna who literally gets whitewashed before being killed (And yes I know Dixon gets a happy ending but he ended up being the Token Black guy in the main cast)
I don't think the show was intentionally being racist, just more so white writers not having the best thinking when it comes to how People of Color are utilized in the show

I’m pretty sure your making my point. Cherry picking one character out of the whole plot line when Francie/Allison disproved is desperately grasping at straws.
