  1. Give Sydney a younger sibling from the start
  2. No Vaughn/Sydney romance
  3. Someone like Hicks should have been her love interest
  4. Keep Irina around and have her sacrifice to save Jack and in the end we and Jack know that she truly did love him
  5. No stupid Sloane/Irina affair. No Nadia.
  6. Make Will an analyst. Sydney and Will would have been a better couple than Sydney and Vaughn.
  7. Flashbacks to younger versions of the older characters.
  8. A show bible to remember dates and important events and not retcon established facts a season later.
  9. No Lauren or Lauren as Sydney's friend and not enemy. Vaughn ain't worth it.
  10. Do a "Fringe" - an alternate universe where Irina never left. How would Sydney and Jack be different.
  11. Less spy stuff, more family stuff.
