Re: Alphas
Excellent show, superb start, seems to be a slight take on Mutant X though, but with other Alphas as the Eckhart side of the equation. Very well done CGI where needed, but not overdone.
Makes Mondays a busy day.
Eureka
Warehouse 13
Alphas
One after the other, same night.

Re: Alphas
Watched it last night. So now we know where "Nigel" went [Bones].
It wasn't bad actually, I will certainly be watching it again next week.

Re: Alphas
While it is not 'great' the production, acting and storyline is head and shoulders above Falling Skies.
I will see if it is still grabbing my interest after a couple more Eps.

Re: Alphas
I tend to like this sort of show so will give it a chance (although must admit I'm not convinced so far) but I can't see it lasting too long at the moment.
The rehash of previous themes doesn't bother me - just not convinced about the way they've done this one yet.
