Impulse

This show is way too boring, there's just not much going on, characters are uninteresting, the story's dull. Honestly I can't think of any part of it I enjoyed.

While the market is currently saturated with scifi and superpowered humans not all of those shows are made well. Impulse is made better than most of the other shows it competes with despite it likely being aimed at catching high school aged female eyes. The acting and effects are good. Characters are good. I thought this was a ripoff of Jumper but it's based on the same novel as that movie.

As a big fan of the genre, I'm pretty harsh towards a few Netflix series fight scenes that are abysmal and the entire inhumane Inhuman fiasco. None of that train wreckage to be found in Impulse. Production quality exceeds CW offerings, as well as The Gifted and AOS. It has the feel of a serious drama not a feel good teen show. No plugging in of the same shots of a location like you could catch the first season of Bosch on Amazon. If not for the music tracks at certain points I'd question the targeted demographics. Plenty of strong and intelligent female characters.

Was worth binge watching. Kind of slow buildup to her learning her abilities. Always left you wanting to see her using her ability more on purpose than by accident every episode. Was sometimes more like an after school special with an 1-800 number at the end but that's what i think the writers really wanted to do. Hopefully if there is a sesson 2 they can just make it about her abilities and leave the morel stories on the writing room table. Like I said though, was worth a binge watch.

When i read a quick synopsis about a 16 yr old girl who discovers she can teleport, i almost passed completely,i was expecting complete teen cheese but it isn't. It's a pretty decent adult thriller that i'm enjoying and as long as it doesn't deteriorate seen far worse shows,i'm 3 episodes in.Maybe i'm enjoying it because i wasn't expecting much but i don't understand some of the low ratings and tell anyone to give it a chance.

One needs to keep an open mind to appreciate the various plots involved. If you're expecting a super hero series you will be disappointed and although a viewer will have many unanswered questions the concept remains interesting
