The Cape Season One - DISCUSSION THREAD

01-09-2011, 08:21 PM

The Cape is an American one-hour superhero drama series. It premiered on NBC during the 2010–2011 television season as a mid-season replacement[1] beginning with a 2-hour pilot episode on Sunday, January 9, 2011 at 9 pm Eastern and Pacific Time. An encore is scheduled for Monday, January 10, with follow-up episodes continuing on Monday evenings in the 9 pm time slot beginning January 17.

The pilot is tonight, I am looking forward to it.

Looks interesting. I'll have to check it out.

01-09-2011, 09:15 PM

There were so many dates there I got confused for a second.

I just saw the trailer. It looks as though Summer Glau is in it. I'll definitely be watching now.

As much as I love me some River Tam, I'm not too sure this show can impress. I will watch with all enthusiasm though!

PeteSB75 · 01-10-2011, 07:06 AM

Any consensus yet? It's on my DVR, but I've not yet watched it.

Chainsaw13 · 01-10-2011, 07:47 AM

I watched it. Thought it was pretty good. Reminds me a bit of "Hero's" when it first came out. Hopefully it doesn't follow the same fate.

jonumberone · 01-11-2011, 04:49 AM

I have this on my DVR, hoping to give it a try in the next few days.

smitdavi · 01-12-2011, 07:24 AM

I really enjoyed it. Will def be watching more episodes

PeteSB75 · 01-19-2011, 12:06 PM

Watched the the first three episodes so far. First two were good, building to better, third was meh. Didn't care about the russian guy, didn't have a reason to. At least it's setting expectations lower than what Heroes did in it's first season.

kydsid · 01-19-2011, 02:37 PM

i agree they should have done more background on kosmo than did the episode with him wanting it back. overall i have enjoyed the show.

My young son likes the show, that is all that matters in my house!

Bill86 · 01-23-2011, 06:23 AM

So what's the verdict on this one guys? Worth getting into or no?

Adriftpanda · 01-25-2011, 05:59 AM

No, this show sucks. I watched 2 episodes and I just can't get into it. I rather watch Jersey Shore.

PeteSB75 · 01-25-2011, 06:19 AM

If you like superhero stuff, comics, movies, etc. then this is worth your time. But don't expect The Wire or any serious drama at all. I laugh at this show several times an episode, which makes it worthwhile for me. Not laugh because it's funny, but laugh because I'm making fun of it's absurdity. It won't ever get widespread acclaim, but I like it.

I'm a comic book, and video game nerd...and I'm not a fan of the show. It seems like it is actually trying to take itself seriously, and it just isn't good enough to do that.
