Jupiter's Legacy

Jupiter's Legacy was a pretty good superhero show that's absolutely worth watching! It may start off a little slow for some but give it a few episodes because it gets better and better and is worth it. I've noticed that most of the negative comments are from people that read the comics and are disappointed that the show isn't exactly like the comics. I personally have never read the comics (or even heard of them) so I wasn't expecting anything therefore I wasn't disappointed about anything. The other people who were disappointed were the people who were expecting The Boys. It's not! It's still good in it's own right but The Boys is just on another level. The acting is the best part as Josh Duhamel leads a pretty good cast that are all at the top of their game here. It's too bad it was cancelled because it had a lot of potential to be a pretty good show.

I think this show is great and has a lot of potential. I'm so bummed to hear Netflix isn't bringing it back.

Hopefully it'll reboot in the future!

Mark Millar originally wanted this to be a movie, but was advised by James Gunn to turn it into a 40 hour series, because of the extensive backstory and set up that would need to go into it. If we were to get this as a movie we'd have a Watchmen situation on our hands where everything about the characters is set up in the three minutes we had before the opening credits. I would urge people to give it a chance and to wait and see what happens. Yes, this season is setting things up, but considering the alternative I'd rather get it this way. In a market that is completely saturated by superhero stories, it's refreshing to see something with a little more depth and world building than others we've seen. Give it a chance and disregard the 10 star and 1 star reviews. It's not that black and white folks.

I actually enjoyed Jupiter's Legacy and was disappointed it was cancelled after only one season. I never read the comics so I can't compare the two but even if I did I wouldn't care the the two are different. I'll never understand why people don't like shows or movies because they are different from the source material, just enjoy them for what they. If it's entertaining enough then who cares if it's different? I binged the entire first season over the course of a weekend and think if more people would've gave this a chance they would've liked it. Josh Duhamel was the best part of the show and does a great job as the lead. If you're a fan of superhero movies/shows and haven't seen this yet then give it a chance. I think you'll enjoy it.

Come on Netflix, this is recurring trend...please stop cancelling after 1 season!! This was a good show and there is plenty of crap you can cancel and nobody would care.
