After all these..,''fake'' Francie didn't die..and in Season 3 she fought with Syd one more time...and again she didn't die...instead of that Will killed her with a knife!!!....lol??
To those comparing this to the Bourne Ultimatum fight scenes, please remember that this was aired on network television. "Television" being the operative word here. Of course the fight scenes in any of the Bourne films are better (or even the one in Kill Bill vol. 1), because the choreographers had more creative freedom. To think that they actually accomplished something of this quality on NETWORK television is, like...WOAH!
@MayBrainLee1 Completely! When Peter left the kitchen and noticed the gun was missing, I immediately said to my friend, "Francie doesn't like coffee ice cream"...we rolled! It was comedy. :) (And it's no coincidence that both "Alias" and "Fringe" are products of JJ Abrams.)
@pregnantwithtv, Sydney knew that Francie didn't like coffee ice cream and suspected that she was a clone and not really Francie, so she was testing to see if it was Francie or not. Obviously, she wasn't.
@aquajosh It wasn't that she suspected, but had a voice mail from Will telling her that he'd found the meds that Francie's double was taking because of her altered appearance. That part isn't included in this clip.
what season is this. I'm barely watching the series, and I can't believe Francie dies... anyways which buffy and faith fight - the school scene one or when they switch bodies?
What a fantastic fight! Although Jennifer Garner is gorgeous she unfortunately gets an arse kicking in this fight. Francies double was way to much for her and messed her up real bad. Jennifer was bleeding, beaten and defeated where as Francie double was up for it and ready for more!
@xyPERSON Yeah i suppose that is one way of looking at it. If Jen had carried out the flying head kick she was going to do when she jumped on the bed at the end then she would have taken Francie's head off and it would have been game over. But Francie was ready for her and put a stop to it and to Jen. In a hand to hand match Jen was no match for Francie.
boy let me just say two dame thums up for alias this show is the best and i will tell u this season 2 final was the best shit i ever scenn and the black girl got her ass whoop she jennifer threw her as on the glass table and i started to laugh a little bit but this was a good fucking show and only 5 seasons on dvd what they should keep this show on air for at least 7-8 season i love shows like this just like buffy the vampire to lol
@TheDarrellthomas thnx for the reply but I already saw the episode, it's Allison Doren who was hired by Sloane and used Project Helix to look like Francie and it's not her twin sister, Sloane hired her to terminate Sydney Bristow but did not succeed... And btw, it's Jennifer 'GARNER' not 'GARDENER' :)
This has got to be the one of the best females fights I have ever seen. Its obvious that that Frankie double was just as well trained (if not more so) than Sydney. Vicious. Brutal. Amazonian.
Well there is only few months diffrence beetwen kill bill and this episode premiere. Alias was first. I dont know what to think about it... Only coincidence?
For the people who've compared this to the season3 Buffy-Faith fight: while I love Buffy and love that fight scene, this scene here wins out because you can almost never see the stunt-doubles, whereas in Buffy you notice them a decent amount of the time.
@dlweiss True. Plus I just liked all the meaning behind this fight more. Faith and Buffy never really got along that well anyway-Francie and Sydney were so close, and especially since Francie was so sweet and out of it, it kind of packs a bigger emotional punch to see her double getting wailed on by Sydney.
@dlweiss Agreed! Chuck is another show that has had some pretty decent catfights but the one at the beginning of season 4 where Sarah scrapped with the bad model chick (Karolina Kurkova) made the stunt doubles look way too obvious.
Jeeeez they are all good, Alias, Angel, Buffy.....they all have good fighting scenes in them. Whats with the sadness of comparing and trying to prove one is better than the other? Just enjoy them for what they are !!! Enternaining and fun.
I remember watching this for the first time and I was actually shocked at how brutal this fight is. Kinda like Kill Bill. I was also crying only because I was so into the show and basically Sydney was fighting her best friend, even though she was a copy. I miss Francie. One of my favorite charecters, but lets not for Anna Esponosa. :)
I agree Agentderevko....but I think Buffy's Season finale fight with Faith rivals this one. I can't remember the season....but that was an intense fight
@ Spike2709 - You wouldn't know good fight choreography if it punched you in the face and grabbed you by the wrist! Don't be jealous just because you don't have any awards, LoL! Alias's fights are SO much better than Buffy's or Angel's. And I've seen Buffy before, the fights are actually laughable there so bad! Don't try to compare the two, Alias OWNS Buffy!
This fight is EPIC ! The best I've ever seen on T.V. It will go down in history.
I'm pretty sure awards do mean something, otherwise they wouldn't be given out to outstanding performances. I'm sure if such awards existed in Shakespeare's time, he wouldn't have won a few too ;P
I won't turn down an opportunity to see where your coming from. Send me a link to one or two specific scenes from Buffy.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
This is a very poor fight scene. These are supposedly two agents yes? First off, the transitions between moves are crap. Simple grabs on the wrist etc to get between them. And the fact that Sydney never has her guard up. Horrible 'punches' that are clearly put in there so they can be blocked by the opponent etc.
Very basic choreography, very slow and far too organised to be realistic.
If this won awards for fight choreography, then I'm completely stunned. For good fighting in TV, you want to watch the later seasons of Buffy or Angel.
Besides, awards don't mean everything. Shakespeare didn't win any awards and he's the most influencial writer in history.
That scene inspirates Quentin Tarantinos too make his own version of this fight in Kill Bill volume 1 (Black Mamba ake the Bride vs Vernita Green). He was a big Alias Fan.
I recorded this episode when it originally aired on ABC. Katamari Prince is right. It's the same background music from the TV version. But the key of the music has been altered in the DVD version.
MAN Sydney's probably like this bitch is trying to kill me. get her ass Sydney!! thanks for the Alias fight scene. hope to see more soon. never watched the series. i see i missed out!
