Alias: the only relationship that sucked was Sydney and Vaughn

Sydney’s relationship with Dixon was fascinating. So were the ones with her father, Weiss, even Sloane. Will. I’m sure I’m leaving a ton of guys out. And then all the women: her mother, her sister, her friends. Even Vaughn’s freakin’ wife made for a fairly interesting dynamic.

But her relationship with Vaughn was utterly boring. No chemistry. Certainly nothing worth defying regulations about.

On a show that created so many memorable relationships for a woman, why was the “OTP” allowed to be so dull and lifeless? And why were we expected to care?
