Mutant X

This is a great sci-fi action show.I know it's not as popular as some, but I think it's cool.The fx are awesome,the stories are great,the dialog is good,and the characters couldn't be better.This show has some really good actors who almost convince you they ARE the characters they play.This show may not get rave reviews,but I think it's worth watching.

I love this series and still watch it even though its canceled. Adam Kain developed the mutants, but did so only to help mankind. He was searching for to be able to manipulate DNA to help cure diseases. But in some, their genes mutated, giving them mutant abilities. You can tell throughout the episodes he feels responsible for all the problems connecting with mutants. Shalimar is a feral- who is like a cat. Adam brought her in from abuse when she was a child and helped her to cope with her abilities. Through all the episodes, you see a father-daughter relationship with the two. Brennan- shoots electricity through his hands. He is a street wise guy who was a thief. Now turned straight, he sometimes struggles with not just "taking down" his opponents. He has a problem with not being in charge and not in all the loops, but Adam slowly helps him to start calming down. Emma-controls minds. She is soft and quiet and strives to feel needed. She feels close with people they are often after, giving another side for who they are after. Jesse-turns into brick and "phases" letting things go straight through him. He comes from a rich family and wants to prove he can fight. He is very smart when it comes to computers. The newest edition in the end is Lexa- maipulate light. She has a dark past and a good reason for it. She has a habit of keeping the others outta the loop, but learns there is no room for that. She tends to keep people at arms length because of her past and is pretty much hated for it. But as time goes on, she learns to grow more and to trust. This series is very good, the action is great, actors are great and you can feel compassion for the characters.

i have been watching this show for a while. i watched the first season and then lost interest but now I'm back watching it again. people needs to stop comparing this to xmen just because its about mutants. whether its a rip off of xmen or not shouldn't matter that much. look around you, we live in a world where everything is duplicated. for every Britney we have a Christina. and from Carson we now have David letterman and jay Leno, so shut the hell up with the copying crap. if you can get over the fact that its about a bunch of mutants that have superpowers some-what similar to the xmen then you will enjoy this show. the characters each have their own unique personalities that makes the show works. it may not be the best show in the world but it does have its moments

The special effects were good for their time. So were the characters. Interesting plot line but crappy dialog at times. Not until Heroes came along did I realize something was missing from Mutant X. Good directing! There's a distinctly cheap feeling to it at times, with backgrounds that really disappoint, and scenes added just to make the minutes.

You'll be finding yourself saying "come on come on...get to scene where they use their powers" or counting how many times they show them getting out of a car in that particular episode.

You'll like it if you're a fan of the genre. Still a nice watch if you're not.

I liked X-Men the cartoon and I like this show. That's apparently weird and wrong to many people. The plots explore a lot of issues about genetic testing and the consequences of trying to play God. Ultimately, we screw ourselves up and create a race that we want to get rid of because they're more powerful. It's the human weakness to want to run things but then can't control it and get in over our head. Anyone who came on Xena, I'll watch their shows. Hence I watch Mutant X for V. Pratt because she played Cyane on Xena and Sarge on Cleo 2525. The show is good though. Adam is starting to make a comeback (saw that coming) and Emma's gone. I'm happy about that. She had no personality and was just annoying. Her powers were cool though. The show's premise is Adam, a geneticist, who takes in 4 powerful mutants to help them control their powers and to fight to protect all mutants. Shalimar, the feral, who's very territorial and protective of the crew; Jesse, the masser/phaser, can walker through walls or become one and is a little naive, but he's coming out of that. They usually have him staying at Sanctuary doing computer tricks and he never gets any action. Brennan, the electric guy, can electrocute things and is a playboy, but has a sweet side. Basic pretty boy, but he and Shal may have something going on. And Lexa, new to the group. She can bend light to become invisible and to form a laser, ouch! She works for the secret gov't group The Dominion, but she's got her ow agenda and may be as much out of the loop as Mutant X. Adam's coming back to run things because I think he was betrayed. Anywho, great show. Good concepts. I lost touch with it for awhile, but I like where I'm at now. Watch it.
