Dion

This show is kind of complicated. Of course, Dion can come off as annoying, or difficult to deal with, and while his acting isn't the greatest, the way they write his character makes sense. I never get the feeling that he's bratty, and though maybe spoiled, he's still just a kid. This is how kids act like. They do things you don't want to do, because they just don't understand, and perhaps he's unbearable for others, I think he develops well, because he eventually starts listening, and starts paying attention, and it's strange because it was genuinely so subtle and natural to me, especially as he starts to understand his powers more.

Moving on, the mother, Nicole, is extremely emotional, and might get on people's nerves, especially with how she deals with situations. But the fact of the matter is, is that she clearly cares. She's scared of her son, and rightfully so, because as amazing as Dion's powers are, he's still just a child, and yet he has so much responsibility at his age. She's fearful of him, but no matter what, she still loves him, and though she's a helicopter parent, it's not without reason. She's emotional, but she does have some good moments with her more emotional moments. She does have a lot of flashbacks, especially in the first episode, and while I'm desensitized to it, others may find the excessive use of flashbacks annoying, and I do agree they weren't needed since there wasn't anything else of substance to their relationship other than it was a healthy one. There's nothing to be noted or taken away from them excelt for one of them in the later episodes.

The plot itself is easy to follow, and though they briefly touch on racial issues, it's only for one episode and is briefly mentioned in another episode. It's nothing preachy, just there. I think that this too might get on people's nerves, but I promise, it's not unbearable.

That being said, I really enjoyed this show, flaws and all. This is really one of those shows where you should watch it before you judge it too harshly though, but it's up to you considering each episode is about 40-50 minutes.

We (adult and teen boys) loved season 1. So much suspense, we binge watched it. Have been waiting season 2 for ages!

And what a disappointment it was. The story went in a weird angle, Dion was exceptionally annoying, and there were major plot holes all throughout. Felt like it was a waste of my time watching.

Would give season 1 a 9/10, and season 2 a 1/10.

First season was really enjoyable, adorable and enticing. We were subsequently excited for season 2 but we found it lost its X factor. Not sure why but the acting doesn't seem as natural and the story line feels too predictable.

A story about a young boy with unusual abilities & the struggles the mother has. Seems like an interesting plot and it is. But!!! The kid is a spoilt brat whi is basically undisciplined and uncontrollable. The mother is an emotional timebomb continually having meltdowns everytime she cant get her own way. Her best friend is a childlike moron woth OCD. And the young boys isdues seem to be a sideline to the mothers problems. Great plot, but more like a soapie! If you dont like annoying characters, then tune out.

Ok I have given this a 10 because I'm reviewing it from a different perspective.

It also has done something very unique and special. Please let me explain. No other series has allowed me to watch a TV show with my children which we are all able to enjoy. My children are so invested and intrigued by what will happen next. To experience a TV show with them is magical. They are full of anticpation, theories and we discuss it at meal times.

To see Thier faces light up when we decide to watch the next episode is really something special.

I wish more TV shows would do this. Normally they watch thier cartoons a d then we watch our shows. But now we are enjoying it together.

For this reason I'm giving it a 10, no other show has done this before and therefore a 10 is well deserved. Thank you.
