Yep…and as stylish and fresh as it was, I think I liked the first one a little better simply because it just focused on how he has only one goal in life…is a little insane (given his imaginary friend), and has no time for anyone to get close.
The second had a deeper story line though and more “real threats” to his own life.[/quote]
I have to agree. I enjoyed both, but the first stuck with me. Probably because it was so simple and there was just ONE goal in his mind

Anyone else watch the Season Premiere of this show? I DVRed it and I have to say that I enjoyed the show. It looks like a promising new show (kinda batman-ish)
oh and the main female lead is smokin hot!
So who watched it and what do you guys think?[/quote]
watched it while I was off yesterday. thx Goodness for OnDemand. This was one of the worst 40 minutes of my life. I can’t believe anybody actually enjoyed this. The writing/acting is terrible (said in Charles Barkley voice).
The action doesn’t even redeem it. The lead is a 187lb weakling who gets his ass handed to him through the whole show.
I should admit, my 4yr old thought it was interesting although it might have just been cuz dad was watching it and she wanted to hang out.

The cape’s pilot had an exposition that was shoved down your throat. They didn’t take time to enthrall the audience and lure them in. They just kinda threw everything at you at once and then bam, he’s a super hero.
Boderline cheesy on some of the characters too. Just like some other shows, the pilot shouldn’t be the end all be all for a tv series. I’ve seen some terrible pilots that turned out to be decent shows after the writers finally started clicking.
Lets not forget the SLEW of Super Hero movies that hollywood has came out with lately and continues to do so this year, people im sure are getting tired.
