The Bristows

This Alias spinoff would take place when Sydney is 4-22 so there would be at least 3 different people playing her mainly by Jennifer Garner giving the flashbacks and in the final seasons when she is older, the plot being her growing up learning her mom 'died'. The timeline is a teeny bit different from Alias itself. This season starts out with only 13 episodes, a usual minimum for first-season shows. The first season deals more of Irina's death and Sydney's early years rather than CIA, which is the main point of the show.

NOTE- Does not fully maintain "Alias" timeline.

Munsonator, I am Zara. I love your... uh, outline, I guess it's called! It's hilarious! I especially love Season 2, and more especially, The Black Eye, haha, Jack offing the parents of the brat who popped Sydney! And "Party of 4" is crazy, but definitely in a good way! ;) Keep up the good work. I can't wait for Season 3.

But there is just one thing I must say in criticism. I noticed that after the bits that don't follow the Alias timeline, you put a note. That's cool, but there were some other bits that fit that criteria and you didn't put a note. Such as the fact that you have Syd knowing Sloane. unless I am mistaken, Sydney did not know Sloane existed back then. Remember in Season 1, don't know which episode, but Sloane was telling Syd how he "kept tabs on her in his own way" and Sydney glanced up at him, shocked, and then he explained that he knew her mother and father all those years...
And Syd meeting Francie in middle school, that's a deviation too, because I think they did not meet until the summer before they started at UCLA. But I'm entirely sure about the Francie thing...
Anyway, besides that, I absolutely love your idea. Are you going to write it in story format someday or is this the final product?
 
I actually did these originally on "Alias Boards" months ago and decided to place them here and see what responses I got. If you like 'em, I'll continue. I actually never thought of doing an actual script or story, but we'll see. If you didn't see, there are a few more 'shows' like this out on AllAlias, currently I've been working on "Alias: In Space" which is in it's 7th season. I'll get another season up HERE for THIS show, soon!

ALSO- On most of my newer shows I write "Does not fully maintain Alias timeline"....didn't do it here. Thanks for reminding me. Its up on the first entry now.
 
I think your fanfic series here, "The Bristows" is awesome. If I feel that some bits should be different, that's only because I'm not you. It's your fanfic, so it should be your way, and I enjoy it as it is. I'm not critical of fanfic, ever, because even if I don't like something (which is NOT the case here) so what? Most people write for themselves, because it's something that's fun and enjoyable on a personal level, so it really does not matter what others think, though it's always nice when they like it too!

I am going to check out these other shows you mention. Thanks for the info.
