Might have to check it out.
-
I'll give it a shot.
-
Why not just call it The Fantastic Incredibles Heroes Family and be done with it?
-
All I know is 24 is getting 4 star ratings from some folks for the monday night season finale.
-
Even just for a tv movie.
-
Love them both, no matter what they do. Daughter looks annoying though.
-
Dad is indestructible, Mom super fast, daughter psychic, and the son is, what, really good at algebra?
What about the pilot of the plane? -
Im down for that.

That girl reminds me of Amber Tamblyn (not a good thing)

-
I smell potential super-villain.
-
I like Amber though. I assume that she is Dana Panabakers(Shark) sister.
-
one viewer here.
-
Evil Herc has seen the 24 finale. You can find details (including the series' final line of dialogue) on Evil Herc's twitter feed.

There's a copy of the trailer here :

Because yes, ABC has set their copy of the trailer to region protection USA or some such stupid shit. -
I don't want powers I want to be normal!!! What kind of crap is that? Thats why I never completely bought Heroes because the cheerleader had not only one of the best superpowers in the show but the most subtle. So unless the superpower sucks I just don't understand anything other than being super-excited.
-
It's looks pretty good too.

Have you ever met a teenage girl? As a general rule, if they don't fit in for any reason, they're unhappy.
-
I'll definitely be tuning in for that.
-
so why not call it the Fantastic Four?
-
will have Vic-, I mean Michael, burn some dude's face on a hot stove.
-
I'll keep an open mind though... If everything we see is from the pilot, it could be good. If it's going to be some long, drawn out thing where revelations take seasons to come then I'll definitely pass. In any event, there's no story evident yet, and that worries me. What do these people do with their powers?
-
I deem this to be the most 'meh' looking trailer since Herc last deemed something to be something.
-
...and he hates this is gonna actually be a show... no more network hourlongs for me (or evil yourSTEPDADDY)
-
I might try to catch an episode, of this on Hulu; but it definitely doesn't look like a show I'll make a point of catching when it's on.
-
That's what killed heroes. By the time the 'powers' went public, the show was shitcanned. I'm not saying the family needs to be in capes and masks, but the show can't just be people with powers hiding in the suburbs trying to live a normal life.
-
He's a genius, I'm pretty sure. It seems really similar to Amadeus Cho from Marvel Comics, who can sort of 'see' math and probabilities and things like that all around us, and understand them instantly.
-
they can find some decent stories.
-
Vic with no clothes on looks disappointed lol.
-
hmmm interesting
-
*cough*
-
Make that both FF movies combined.
-
Looks like fun. Let's see where it goes.
-
...that Julie Benz was going to have super-nudie powers - in that every time she activated her powers, all her clothes fell off...of course, all in the best possible taste!
-
1. Hope theres a villain of some kind. 2. Powers look a little cliche. Will Watch.
-
...it's called the power of the pussy.
-
and also have a superpowered dog.
-
I love me some costumes.
-
Really rockin' big tits.
-
almost as bad as The Cape.
-
ya hear tell about.
-
Assuming the terrible narration is only for the ad.
-
Centers on some evil genius trying to find the location of a super-hero producing water? And then it'll turn out to be Charles Widmore?
-
I'll DVR the first couple of episodes and give it a shot.
-
Looks like moderately entertaining television. I'll definitely DVR it and see.
-
really like Chikless so worth a shot
-
..but I am kind of interested. Probably only because Mackey and Rita are the leads.
-
I HAVE A LAIR! - that line gives me the most hope. The mope around because of superpowers shit has to go. Yeah it works in comic books, when it comes to huge, hairy-rocky monsters, or if it makes you a minority your government wants to exterminate. Otherwise, it's ridiculous. Teenagers would murder for the ability to read minds not cry about it. The daughter abusing the hell out of it would be a lot better and realistic development than "I just want to be normal, bwaaah!" Also: the Cape trailer looks kinda good too. I was sure both series will suck ass, but i don't know, they seem fun.
-
because of Chiklis and Benz. Wonder what role Reeser plays.
-
The premise maybe a bit reclycled. The question is will it be more Buffy or Heroes in the exicution?
-
on copyright grounds!
-
We'll add it to the DVR. ABC made the right call dropping FlashForward to pay for this.
-
Makes me suspect that there's some Nazi "boys from Brazil" connection where bad guys are creating supermen and out family got dunked in it by accident. This would be good because they could be constantly hunted by super-neo nazis.
-
I would probably watch Michael Chiklis in anything.
-
this is better off as a mini-series. cause it'll just drag on like Heroes or V the series.
-
Chiklis was not used well as Ben Grimm. You could go on and on about how bad the FF effort was, but it wasn't his fault. As an actor he has an incredible amount of depth. The writers need to keep the pace up with his talent.
-
Not a lot of actors have earned more good will that Michael Chiklis and Julie Benz. I hate the cliched representation of the teenage girl though. You know, some teenagers are pretty cool. They're not all brats. Why not be different and write one who has a little character?
-
WOW THAT LOOKS GAY
-
Doesn't look GREAT, but at least it seems like it's keeping it's head on straight.
-
Looks like the glowy cave from LOST found some work post-finale ... probably more than the other cast members will be getting.
-
4 people with super powers. How long until others arrive? Won't be weekly sitcom with just them and their powers and how to hide them. They will have to use it for a greater good, then there will be a MIG (Man in Grey) who tells them about some secret stuff and a great revelation we're supposed to see in the season finale... Been there, done that, comedic or dramatic - it all went down the chimney... My prediction? 1 season only - if it lives to the end of that! Julie Benz the hottest woman on this unverse's earth, goddammit!!! Maybe in the ALT-Universe we have 17 children? Who knows?

interesting thought. I would love to see FX do a Unbreakable series. Oh, Cape, definately looks better than this. I will give both a shot, but NOF looks like it fall into a messy formula each week.
