Why do they like Dana more than Chris?
I'm watching the show again as Showtime airs its marathon before Season 6 and I'm reminded how little the creators cared about Chris over Dana. She got all the primary focus out of the Brody kids just to show off her angst-ridden romances and giving her all the attention whenever her father was concerned. She became more annoying the more they gave to her and didn't spare enough time for a freckled cheery kid who's keeping it together, which reminds us how the writers' favorite kid is hardly ever going to be our favorite too. The less we saw of Chris, it was like picking a favorite kid that they love more than the other and I wish they had cut him more slack because we saw no effect on him after the attack in Season 2. We never hear of him or see of him, only Dana, as if Brody having a son was meaningless, and we never even see anything of them both or their mom in the Season 3 finale after learning what Brody did and died for. Everything that happened with them in the first three seasons seemed to matter and then it didn't by the end of Season 3 when they no longer existed and no effect of Brody's death is shown.
