Our protagonists, ranging from the accidental to the antihero, are more gritty and relatable than the usual fare. The cleverly woven introduction is accented by comic kitsch, appropriate shock value, and a hint of teen drama – all in 60 minutes. I’m sold!

I'd love to see more shows in places like Philly, DC, Boston or SF (where I am). As for the show, if pressed to describe, I'd say it's a hybrid of X-Men and M. Knight's "Unbreakable". I had my doubts about this show too, but not after watching the pilot. I agree with you on the location issue. I’d love to see more shows in places like Philly, DC, Boston or SF (where I am).
