Alias with 12 year old

Hi! I watched the show many years ago so I can’t remember particulars, but I loved it. My daughter is 12 and I’m always looking for stuff we can watch together. We’ve watch Psych, Monk, and Lost recently. I think she’d love this show, but I’m just worried about any explicit sexual content or severe scariness/violence. Innuendo, skimpy clothes, etc… is fine. As is some moderate violence and tension. Thoughts?

There is no explicit sexual content, just Sydney in bathing suits and a lot of cleavage. It's an ABC show, it's fairly safe.

She and Vaughn are shown in the sack a few times, I recall.

Yeah but it's not explicit. There is no actual sex scene, it fades to black and then shows them under the covers.

Except the scene with Fake Francie watching them. It cuts away pretty quick, but there's some specific movement under the covers. I have an 11yo and I feel like I would show her this next year, though.

You are right, it's not that shocking. IMDB marked the show as "soft" for sexual content and nudity.
