I like how Summer Glau had a Mercedes SLS. Wonder how she got all the money to get that.

Perhaps you've heard of this little sport called "football"

I enjoyed bits and pieces, but will continue watching hoping it gets better. I felt it was highly rushed and many gaps were patched together. Interesting concept.

IS250tim, I, too, wonder how she got the money. I might just watch the series just for her character, which is actually pretty interesting (more than just her being attractive)

I would wreck Summer Glau.

I would not, however, watch this show again - even if I only caught the last 10 minutes tonight.

I laughed at her "needing to be under the radar" Gullwing screams ordinary.

I just watched it and there were so many parts that seemed like a blatant ripoff of the dark knight.

1. guy training and honing his abilities
2. making his suit at a desk in some dark basement area
3. getting poisoned by a bad guy and then a black guy giving you an antitode (morgan freeman)
4. standing outside some kids window and talking in a dark creepy voice
5. the end of the show, standing on a rooftop as the cape flaps in the wind

i mean, there were probably more, but it seemed so copycat

I facepalmed hard at that. He can't fly or shoot web, so I imagine that before vanquishing evil he's going to need to find a service elevator, and I sure hope the door to the roof didn't close and lock while he was up there.

it'd be sort of funny if his lair's landlord showed up.

Yeah, and they've been advertising it nonstop during football.

You're right. It is pretty awkward and cliche that a superhero should do this.

Last night's wasn't too great. I'd think if that villain had trained with the cape and used it extensively he would have been able to beat the main guy in about 5 seconds.

Chess is WAAAAAAY too young to be Orwell's father.

Yea seems obvious they are trying to link Orwell with Peter Fleming as her father, yet the actors are only 13 years apart in age, and I don't think he looks much older than his actual age.

Its not great, but its not terrible to me. Won't last long though, I'm sure.

The two Lich episodes are good. I haven't watched the two after that though.

It started out pretty bad but after the first few episodes it got fairly decent. I kept up with it and enjoyed it. I really liked it that they introduced a new villain in each episode but kept the main guy was the head villain. I agree that the Lich episodes were good; I also liked the Dice episode. Sadly, the show has already been canceled. They didn't even let it air the whole first season. From what I've heard, three episodes went unaired and they posted the season finale online. Too bad... aside from some bad writing and plot holes it had potential. I guess this makes three unsuccessful network television series for Summer Glau

I'd at least watch the Lich episodes. They are good, it was just a shame the show didn't get those episodes closer to the beginning of the season.
