User blog comment:Corbierr/Character Analysis- Alfie/@comment-25576856-20141109201009

Alfie is definitely more well written than at least half the characters on the show, if not more. Heck, he was more well written than Nina, the protagonist!

Actually, I liked seeing Alfie being Jerome's sidekick at the beginning of season 1. Not because of Jelfie (which I love), but because it allowed him to develop from following Jerome around to standing up to him.

In season 2, I loved it when Alfie did the amazing trick with the amulets and became "The Amazing Alfredo." It was really smart.

I wish they had shown Alfie being a bit more upset about Amber leaving in season 3. He had a crush on her since the first episode of season 1. One would think that it would have taken him a bit longer to move on. And Walfie came out of nowhere. I probably shouldn't get started on how pointless a character Willow was.

Overall, Alfie is a great, developed character who the writers managed to not mess up that much.
