SupraCell

Ive watched 3 episodes and i have to say the mix on London life and the sci fi element is so unique and so worth watching . No one should see the glory of gangs but the gritty, realistic life of those in a city where it seems gangs are the way to better yourself in a world where being part of something is better than nothing. I abhor gang violence and am 59 yrs old woman . But i cant understand how hard life can be for teens nowadays . The story and character development does not deserve such a low rating . I look forward to season 2 . We have heros and antiheros in all walks of life. That is life.

I quite enjoyed the show overall up until the ending, but it was so frustrating how stupid the characters were. They were literal idiots which was so frustrating. Things happened because they were stupid or did stupid things. It was really frustrating to watch. Things happened because the plot needed them to happen even if it didn't make any sense. I would probably rate the series a 8-9 if it werent for the lazy writing.

Why can't people talk like normal people and communicate important things in a few seconds instead of letting interruptions get in the way?? It is fake tension and lazy writing that adds nothing to the story.

The ending wasn't suprising, but it could have been written better.

Also time travel just ruins everything. Never ends well.

First of all, the plot is something quite different. Sure superpowers have been in multiple movies and tv series, but in these tv series, the whole plot adds something very different and unique. The execution could have been better in some parts, but in general it was a really nice and interesting show to watch! I binge watched it. Furthermore, as a white person, I do appreciate and really like the diversity! We need more series with black people. Also, I don't quite understand the whole picture yet, but I am very eager to see what is next. There needs to be a second season and why not more. You need to watch these tv series!

I'm not sure why there are so many low ratings, I thought this was a breath of fresh air in the superhero genre. Kind of top boy meets misfits, low key British drama with mostly black cast. I feel that the low ratings must be from Americans who expect super over the top storylines.

Supacell is a unique take and I felt it captured the reality of what would happen if south london gang members all of a sudden had superpowers- of course they'd be using them for their own selfish needs, humans generally would. I thought it was an interesting thought experiment and it was a delight to watch. I hope there'll be a second series!

There have been a million series about superheroes and the powers of the main cast. Nothing new here. But, the overall story is unique. London is a nice spot. Showing us the different black immigrant classes is a very refreshing take - virtually everything I can think of set in London pretend they don't exist. The gangster undertones/stories are also interesting, if only to see how it differs from the US. I think the characterizations are pretty good, and the acting is excellent. All that said, this isn't a masterpiece of TV. But it is way more entertaining than the Marvel drivel of recent years.
