    Summary

    Reviewers say 'The Gifted' offers a compelling storyline and strong character development, praised for its exploration of societal prejudice and struggle for acceptance. Impressive special effects enhance the viewing experience. However, some find the series formulaic with clichéd scripts and underdeveloped characters. Pacing and melodrama are contentious, with some feeling the show drags. Despite criticisms, many enjoyed the series and were disappointed by its cancellation, hoping for more seasons to delve into the rich narrative and character arcs.

    Seen it before, hope it goes somewhere

    This is very reminiscent of Heroes and the first episode hasn't shown something we haven't seen before.

    There are some token characters and basically if you've seen any of the trailers out there you've seen the first episode. The little sentinels look a little bit too much like the robots from the Matrix.

    Acting is good, CGI is bearable but could do better.

    Not sure where the plot is going.. is it just mutants vs the Sentinel program? Anyhow it's not a bad start but it's not great either. At this stage it's decent but it could go either way.

    Emmy for whiniest parents in television history!

    I really enjoy this series, good plots, good acting/actors, lots of potential...and each episode has improved as writers and directors are finding their groove.

    But, please - kids, (Strucker brother and sister) - please emancipate yourselves from your constantly whining, hovering, wimpy, classic helicopter parents that are in denial about your powers and holding you back from maturing! They (parents) are the only part of the show that I cringe at, every time they are in front of the camera.

    Promising idea, but just meh...

    I wasn't captivated by the show. I think it suffers of the same problems of other current super hero shows: the writing. Some lines of dialogue are unnecessary (If someone just had an obvious meltdown, there is not need to ask "Are you ok?"). Something that I just don't get is people with super powers sunning away instead of using the powers. I also find particularly annoying is the Strukers, especially the parents, so dramatic and unnecessarily over protective, wanting to "help" but not by letting their kids use their powers. I find the mom particularly guilty of this in almost every scene that she is in (which again, is mainly the poor writing). This show has so much potencial, but so far is being wasted. Comic book based shows need to be written by comic book writers or at least by people familiar with the style. soap operish drama should stay in soap operas.

    Loving it!

    I'm usually hesitant to watch new TV shows these days as they mostly disappoint me. I am very critical on quality of acting and the plot or the story itself. I'm hooked alright!. Although it is more like the X-men series, it's surprisingly captivating. It emphasized the importance of family and value of human lives. The acting is excellent; the plot is unpredictable. The CGI can be improved, but it's far better than standard TV shows. It's an action show but not too violent. It's a great show to watch for the entire family.

    • Did this show get to have some sort of a finite ending, or was it just cancelled mid-story as has been the fate of so many "due to declining ratings" shows?
