1. I didn't want to add a new show to my tv viewing week but...
I've found myself getting sucked in to this show and since it is so incredibly bizarre I NEED to know how it pans out. My dad TIVO'ed the first ep and I gave it a shot, I was intrigued...then I watched the second episode and now I'm hooked

9. He is cool
I love those guys storyline. I don't quite understand the comic book and where it comes from besides the druggie guy. Does he send it to him?

4. I was on the fence after the first episode
But they did a great job in number two. The comic book sensibility is really coming through and it's got that serial feel that has been prominent in TV lately (see Lost, Prison Break etc.)

This thing isn't nearly as hacky as it had the potential to be. Nice variety of people and a good mixture of power types. There's lots of little subplots and a bigtime hook with the main arc.

The acting isn't all that, but it's really not an issue.

Me likey.

6. I've always been hesitant to watch these serial shows...
simply because I don't want to be left hanging if ratings aren't great and they get cancelled...but I guess I'm committed now

5. I'm intriqued
When the Japanese guy ended up back on the Tokyo subway last night I was startled. I want to see how it plays out. The cheerleader's "dad" is creepy.

The characters are interesting, to say the least.

7. ..other than "effin' weird?"....
...I sort of have an idea with what's going with a few of the characters and their gifts, but what is the story with the blonde bird?

I am hooked though...at least for the time being...

8. I think I am hooked for this season.
I just finished rewatching the first 2 episodes which I recorded onto a dvd, sans commercials. They are sort of like unorganized X-Men.

11. This is looking to be a great show!
I really look forward to the next week every time the show ends! Sometimes, the show seems a tad disjointed, but I chalk that up to their being so many stories to tell before the "convergence."
