After watching the first couple episodes, the writing on this series looks promising. The script is much better quality than similar Marvel TV titles like AGENTS OF SHIELD, and it's practically a masterpiece compared to INHUMANS. Then again, INHUMANS looked like bad cosplay with a $20 budget.
I'm surprised to find this on Freeform instead of regular ABC television, but whatever, the series looks like it has a bright future if the story quality stays at the same level.

I watched this show every week when it first aired to when the show got cancelled. I don't like how so many people don't like this show because the writers made the show realistic and modern. People assume this show was just some race related show but it was so much more than that. It touched on all the heavy yet uncomfortable topics we shy away from because we as a society would have to admit there is a problem towards POC. The main characters had a great dynamic and on screen chemistry and they show deserved more seasons for people to really see that. I would still recommend this show in 2023. It's more than just the hardships of Black people, everyone is involved and included too.
Give me a break!
"The whole country trying to kill me every day"?
"Can I check your privilege?"
I assume that that's the dialogue we can expect in future episodes, so I'm bailing.
Too bad. I thought it started out a little rough, but worth giving it a chance, and I think A. Joseph is an excellent actor and expect to see a lot more of him, but the *writers, once again* have brought unnecessary social issues as the main plot drive of a superhero series, and the powers so minor that they're only incidental.
Too many series lately have been ruined in the same way. It seems that "Marvel" doesn't mean "excellence", anymore...

Despite all the indications that this would be just another cheesy YA show, this show is actually beautifully shot and executed in a much more artful and sophisticated way.
I've watched all 3 episodes that have aired so far. I understand that with a new series people who have not read the comic have to get to know the characters. After 3 episodes of nothing but soul searching and showing they are not perfect people with perfect lives, it's time to move on and pick up the pace.
