Alphas

It was no slam-dunk, especially in the wake of the failure of "Heroes" and last season's dud "No Ordinary Family." Created by Zak Penn ("X-Men: The Last Stand," "The Incredible Hulk") and Michael Karnow, it got bounced out of ABC during the writers strike while the script included a character whose superpower was the ability to shatter glass with a whisper.

The canceling of this show is a worse travesty than the canceling of FIREFLY!! Do you (the producers, etc.

My husband and I fell in love with the characters within the first two episodes. We loved how it took, presumed, problems (disabilities) and turned them into special abilities.

You can have show after show where there's a very clear difference between the good guy and the bad guy, and it's about the good guy going after the bad guy.But can a grieving mom, desperate to make people pay for her son's suicide, really be considered a bad guy, or is she just someone who is using her ability to gain what she feels is justice?

"I am the Alpha and Omega." Ever thought what this ancient writing content held?

First off are people so starved to have a new Sci-Fi to follow that they try and praise anything? This show have the most boring writing since a Emmerdale farm episode that really let it self go, And the powers they have is to put it gently , Slightly more powerful and useful then a slightly miffed hamster.

First of all, yes, this show has a re-hashed premise (tons of comics, as well as the X-Men and Heroes Movie and TV franchises, not to mention No Ordinary Family and Mutant X), but really, what's the big deal about copying a high concept about a team of super-humans fighting another team of super-humans? It's what the show adds to the genre that matters.

Alphas takes the superhero genre to another level with its plausibility and attention to detail. The actors all appear comfortable in their roles, as if they'd been playing their characters for years.

I love Sci-Fi, want more, and am always happy to see a new show come out. That being said, 'Alphas' is a little trite and conventional.
