I generally like it so far (3 episodes). But some of the acting sucks, especially the woman that plays Allison. Mary J Blije is not that great either

I'll have to find time to watch this. Not sure how true it is to the comics.

We ended up watching it over the weekend. Everyone enjoyed it but none of us had read the comics. Netflix put some money into it and I thought the CGI was good. Looked into it and Dark Horse afterwards and had no idea it was created by the singer of My Chemical Romance. Apparently he has done several comics over the years.

I wonder if they are going to do anything with the other people born on that date as it seems like they would all have powers also.

I'm almost done with season 1, and have really been enjoying. It's pretty high quality, and has an excellent soundtrack.

I was quite the My Chemical Romance fan back in 2003-2008, so am happy to see Gerard having such success with his comic book career!

Season 4 will be the final season but it will only have 6 epsidoes instead of 10 like the previous 3 seasons?! :(

Damn...but also, good on them for knowing when to throw in the towel.

I've thoroughly enjoyed the show. Can't wait to see how it wraps up.

I hadn't paid attention and thought season 3 was the conclusion. Interested to see what direction they go.
