    Eh, might be good for a watch.

    If its at all similar to THIS, I'm all for it:
    (I like this 'version' of Bruce 10X better than the Nolan version, this version would function better in the real world. )

            My son and I watched it an enjoyed it. We have never read "the cape" so no preconceptions on our part. I won't spoil anything...definitely had some camp to it and funny parts to it (we both thought the little person who was part of the carnival of crime was the best character on the show). We immediately caught a few scenes that appeared to be lifted from "Lost" and "Flashforward". My son thought the same actor who played the autistic boy in "Flashforward" might be the same as the son of the Cape (I didn't google up). It was interesting that his last name was Farraday and a villain had the last name LaFleur which reminded me of Sawyer but these names might have been established before Lost. A good watch though...definitely met my expectations.

              I watched it with my two younger boys and they both enjoyed it. I tried to watch it through their eyes and it was a lot of fun. It think it has some potential. On the other hand, I can also see how it will lose our interest very quickly as well.

                Have not seen it yet...it's still recorded in my DVR.

                I'll watch it tonight.

                  I enjoyed it for what it was. And I think if they have rotating villains each week that will help.

                    I watched it last night. It was okay but I found the music, costume and poses on rooftops a little too Batman-like. I wanted something original. No thanks.

                      I have it on right now and lost interest in it after the first 10 minutes.
                      I was actually intrigued when I saw Eric Pierpoint (George from Alien Nation TV series) was the police chief...then they killed him off in the first 5 minutes.

                        It kind of reminded me more of the Flash TV series.

                          The Flash series deserved a better fate. For the time, I thought they did a great job on it.

                              I think it has potential, kept me interested for the most part through the two episodes, and made the Season Pass cut list. I like my superheroes on a weekly basis opposed to every couple of years, so I will allow some leeway on some things other fanboys might not. Definitely more rewarding than Heroes, and more depth than No Ordinary Family, although I still enjoy that show as well.

                                Life in an echo chamber That's exactly what I said to my wife and kids.

                                I really enjoyed it. Hopefully, it will not get too stale, too quickly.
