I watch it as well and find it enjoyable. I wouldn't call it the best thing on tv but I usually have a good time watching and love all the comic book references that they toss in there.

I mean where else are you going to get a reference to Cyclops & Phoenix, Power Man & Iron Fist, and Green Lantern & Hawkgirl all in the same sentence. :lol:
 

First episode started here this week and I may be viewing reglarly (not compulsively but if its on that all good)

I did enjoy the comic book parts, but the 'family drama' aspects were a bit grating - does it get better?

so how far behind are we compared to the US audience?
 

I had a thread about the show a while back in which I said it was Joan of Arcadia as a show involving supers.

I'm watching it- as others have said, it's fairly easy to watch- but I don't know how long it's combo of pacing and core conceit can survive. JoA only went 2 seasons, despite being quite well written.

Personally, I thought the series took a big drop in quality after the first few episodes. I think I gave up after the 5th one.

A quick check on Wikipedia says it's at episode 14 here.
 


I only stuck with it for the first few episodes. The third time I saw a character repeat behavior that they'd learned was bad in the previous episode, I got turned off.

it is a shame, 'cause Chiklis isn't bad in his role. It was a writing issue, for me.
 

I watched the first seven or so episodes, but the pacing is a bit too slow for my tastes. If the writing gets better, it could be a very good show, but it failed to impress me.
