Here's how it went at our house:
"It's like X-Men?"
"Yeah... pretty much."
"I can't take it seriously, but knowing i can't lets me watch it from that viewpoint, you know? if i am not taking it as seriously as it wants me to, then i can watch it you know?" "Yeah; i can watch it. it's fun."Then (sorry my quick look didn't come up with the scene number) around the scene at 26:00 when doctor Rosen and Kathy (the head agent; sorry again, but hulu is not letting me click to the exact scene... bummer) are arguing happened, we reacted thus:"---- this ----," and we looked for something else to watch. the reason for instantly not being able to watch the show anymore went unspoken. in fact, since i've written this, i'll probably bring it up, but the reason for not liking it at all anymore was glaringly obvious to us at the time.
(kind of like my sentence structure)i hope that they will let the writers stop putting everything down as if we're all idiots. how many shows/etc. have straight up ripped of X-Men, i wonder? that being said, let's stop over explaining every possible plot avenue. it's cliche and almost patronizing to more of the viewing demographic than they think.overall, there's some serious potential here.
