*sigh*
It really did kind of suck, didn't it?
I watched it, and I remember cringing at the stupidity of the script (the dialogue was atrocious) more than I remember going 'cool.'
There was one funny line about meteor showers and metahumans though... obviously a reference to smallville. I found it funny.
Other than that... it was pretty bad. While I don't suggest taping over it before watching it, well... if you forget to get around to watching it, you won't be any worse off than you were before.
I'm hoping that this series'll die and make room for Firefly, giving it a better timeslot on a better network than Fox.
