Been waiting forever for this. I thought it was cancelled.

The trailer is looking a bit more teen age angsty than I would expect. But It would prefer personal human level problems than saving the world every season.

Series is really good so far.

I like this show. I hope it gets a season 2 and she gets more control over her ability

Ep one done.

Loved the personal feel. Doesn't feel like the world is at stake (yet).

Everything I thought Heroes and Tomorrow People would be. In fact Henri's trigger incident has alot of similarities to something that happened to Claire Bennett in the first season of Heroes.

I hope this doesn't descend into the "Them vs us cliche". There's clearly some kind of struggle between the jumpers and whoever Keegan Key was working with.

EDIT: Finished watching the whole thing. Very easy binge. Great balance of YA drama, crime mystery and super powers. I hope people get around to watching this. It doesn't seem like youtube are promoting it that well.

Watched episodes 1 to 3....and its all good.

Currently watching. I'm at ep06.
The show focuses more on the traumatic results of an attempted rape and teens sexuality than scifi.
I find a bit awkward that the heroine is 16 y/o and her boyfriend looks 20 if not more ( he has his driver license so I guess he's 18 minimum ).
It's also crude, the characters aren't very likable, some deaths are brutal and when it comes to sex stuff it's no flowers and bees.

Yea the drama stuff took some getting used to, but after you adjust you appreciate the message and it doesn't feel too labored. They actually show different sides to the situation, including the boys pov.
