few things fell into place, kinda fig out but... Warning: Spoilers
If I could watch say several epis in a row or even see the completed season but...The Uncle, there MAYBE something good about him, really leaning toward him being someone to never trust, but there is something that I think the writers or such may try to redeem him a bit...the "fight" and what it really means and is, an also the why the sides the just not coming together, not that its been bad but come on there is something missing yet still can see potential for a great show.

It is the whole family even it the little bro hasn't "brokeout" (think there is more to the bad uncle, yet to be put out like say not full sibling or something...nice character to not like), the fact that mom does know a lot more than "we" have seen/heard about and hmm with her power to her son(s)(Dads Power) They prob have more than any really realize that could be the (lack of better words at moment) "saving grace" to not just the break outs but human life and the of course the "happy ending people getting along in life" ... but really getting off subject.

Does this show have promise ? a great story that will fall into place ? and if they at least here in Canada would put it back on it ctv,(move the reality junk to the ctv2 instead or off) an the writers and all who work on this show really decided to go for it, yes it could work for at least a couple seasons. Come on we want real actors/actress with real TV like (from history an on) I love lucy, Bewitched, Little house, bionic woman (the original one) cosby, roseanne, alias, buffy, chuck...well you get it. Give shows real chance, without the "THEY" that yank shows that are doing well with the no longer reliable so called rating lists that are from where uh their backsides ?

Am wanting to like this show, and kinda do, just need to find legal place to watch that works.

Cool show, great episode, but I would love to see little characters such as Sasha more into the story creating more waves with their history... where they are coming from and why they are doing what they are doing. I'm saying this because you're creating a stir by bringing great actors like Raresh DiMofte who played Sasha and then they disappear without any reason. Bring more actors like this guy.

So...what's my motivation?

Warning: Spoilers
Oh good grief.This show seems to be doing the impossible, changing important details all over the place while leaving everything exactly the same.After the out of nowhere revelation that Marla's a Tomorrow Person, she and Stephen casually get on with their lives as if it never happened.It does mean she's more involved in the storyline but the same effect could have been achieved by revealing she knew about Roger's powers so where are they going with this?

And, after his moral stance last episode, Stephen goes back to working for the guy that ordered the deaths of his father and best friend, because he feels really bad about it.Mind you, by this point it seems Stephen and Jedekiah aren't even pretending they're on the same side.At least the show resists the urge to stick John back in the lair, although this means he's reduced to being Mr Exposition, telling Marla a load of stuff that would have her running for the hills in real life and sharing an awkward "intimate" moment with Cara.

The episode plot about the two brothers...well, the time compression thing is a bit of a cheat but Nathan's genuine innocence is a nice touch.But with Russell reduced to two-dimensional comic relief, we're treated to Cara's sudden desire to kill Jedekiah after turning down numerous previous opportunities.And then Stephen saves him for no real reason.Is he really that much of a white knight?Is it because he thinks Jedekiah's protecting his family?Or is it just because he's contracted for the next episode?And, as well as the ability to wander into crime scenes(or did no-one think to ask who he was until after he'd asked questions?), Jedekiah seems to have gone from wanting to wipe out the Tomorrow People to wanting to be one.Still, he's quite obviously insane by now so maybe he's meant to be erratic.
