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
If you're into guys, then this show might be worth watching for the occasional shot of star Victor Webster without a shirt. That's about the only redeeming factor that I can find for the show. Even allowing leniency for superhero/comic-book physics, I still find the mechanics of the storylines to be obnoxiously bad most of the time. I'm a big sci-fi and X-Men fan, and I was excited about this series when I first heard about it. However, the last time I sat through an episode I told my roommate that if he ever saw me watching this show again to take the remote from me and start hitting me in the head with it until I got up to change the channel.
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.
In my personal opinion, I find the science-fiction television show, "Mutant X", to be extremely interesting and refreshing because in many ways, individuals all over the world who feel like they do not belong and those who have been shunned by society can relate to these fictional characters. Although each character has his or her unique and separate mutant capabilities, they each have experienced what it feels like to be an outcast and unable to adapt to society's expectations. For instance, Shalamir's parents were scared so they placed her in a mental institution while Emma experienced a very frightening childhood due to her telepathic abilities. I'll admit that the plots may not be exactly be the most intelligent nor featuring the most creative villains, but the characters make-up for it in complex relationships, mutant complications, and other significant and non-important issues. Brendan and Shalamir's "so-called friendship" is a prime example. From Brendans constant worrying and nagging to Shalamir's continuous flirting; its quite obvious that these two both desire much more in this relationship. Even Jessie is beginning to develop intimate feelings for Emma (as demonstrated in the episode where Mutant X rescued a military pilot). Mason Eckhart intrigues the audience a great deal, for every evil scheme that he attempts to carry out un-succeeded has him trying to prove something to someone, like Dr. Adam Kane. Now, I am not writing this to tell anyone to watch or not watch "Mutant X". All I am attempting to tell people is that they should give this television show a try by simply watching one episode. Who's it going to hurt if someone watches a single episode? Its not like its a soap opera!
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.

- TriviaIn 2001, 20th Century Fox sued Marvel Entertainment, stating "Mutant X" violated Fox's film rights for X-Men (2000). As a result, several changes to the premise of the series were made to distance it from the movie and its comic-book source material. Originally, the "mutant" characters were to have worn black costumes and used codenames (just as in X-Men), and Adam was to have been a wealthy mutant with the surname of Xero (similar to Professor Xavier). The show's logo was also changed from its initial design, which featured the "X" behind the word "Mutant," which resembled the logo used in trailers and TV ads for X-Men (2000) ("X" behind "Men").
- Alternate versionsWhen the show originally aired, it used a lot of licensed music. This was mostly changed for the DVD/streaming releases due to rights issues.
