still the same so far

[rorygunn · 6/10 · 26 September 2018]

After season one's dramatic ending one could've expected something a little more exciting for the opener of season two but alas that was not to be..so far..things could change in future episodes but I doubt it.The Cuckoos are still so far the show but otherwise it's business as usual.The Sentinel services raid a place where mutants are staying and of course the mutants run even though they could wipe sentinel services off the map.The Inner Circle has been introduced this season as a possible adversary to the MU but unfortunately instead of using it to it's full potential as it was in the comics it's being used to promote the SJW girl power future is female nonsense that no one cares about..During one scene the Cuckoos in unison utter the now cliched Well Behaved Women Don't Make History line..Uggh..The Struckers are still boring as ever...And even though Andy is with the Inner Circle because he is a male he won't have a vote..All in all not a good start..nothing new is added and the story line isn't prgressed...If they don't do something to add excitement and let the mutants win a battle or two instead of constantly having them on the run they won't get another season no matter how short the episode count is...

So so silly

A guy who can interact with the computer and hack every network and computer at will sources out his services for scraps of cash to random bums of the street basically. Why doesnt he conjure up some money with his power and enjoy life? There are so so many such stupid mistakes. Then theres the dull story that doesnt really progress much and the ever annoying mother. Not sure if its the actress of the character (or both) but boy is she annoying ALL THE TIME. Everything is always wrong for her. In general Im baffled how these kind of shows make it to season two while shows that are leagues and leagues ahead dont. Its sad.

So yeah...

Horrible cliché lines and a dull story that's what the season 2 premiere had in store for us. They really should skip all the cheesy dialogue because it brings down the show a hell of a lot. I mean look at the first X-Men movies. They were not perfect but at least they didn't rely on old cliché lines that does nothing but to make the show look ridiculous.

Yes this show is like a mix of Heroes and X-Men which would make for a great formula but the writers really are making their best to screw things up, at least it seems that way. Like that mother. Every line she says or does makes me crinch so hard. I would love it if they just killed her off because she does nothing but make other characters doubt their actions and if they do the things they should be doing plus she so naive I wanna smack her. In short not a realistic character.

The story overall was kinda dull. I mean nothing happened , really. The good guys saved some kid that had Sylar ''powers'' but she just wanted to cry and sit in a corner instead of being any help. Hopefully she will be more involved in the story later.

I am giving it a 5/10 because the episode wasn't complete crap but so many things that easiely could have been done better.

Oh dear, second season starts badly

Firstly decide what you want your market to be, this is a key to a successful TV series. This started as a young teenager series and has basically carried on, some sloppy acting and some really very bad acting, not as bad as Doctor Who or the Runaways though. Feel sorry for the actors and directors, but above all the producers and execs should add more adult aspects, especially with such big names attached, add realism in places when possible, not boohoo millennial/HarryPotter crap. It's the adults that pay the bills, not the kids.

Huh Hotrible first episode

This has got to be the lamest season premiere of a show I've seen in a long time. Season 1 was so good and really set up the Mutant vs Sentinel Service Battle aNd season 2 was just a terrible start to what should have been a promising season. Hope they get their act together cause they will lose all credibility if there's many more episodes like this.
