Anyone else liking this show influenced by the X-Men?  I really like it.  I'm glad it's being renewed for a second season.

Aha, yes I am liking this series a lot. Glad to hear it's been renewed. :)

I did try to watch that other series, Legion, but I couldn't get into it.

Legion is definitely ....   different. :p   But it's really good.

Excited to see what the Gifted has planned for the season finale on Monday.

We're a little behind over here because Fox UK didn't pick it up right away, and they had a break over Christmas and New Year so I think episode 11 is on tonight.

Random Thoughts from the Finale/Next Season:

  • I'm really looking forward to next season.
  • I get what they were saying about how killing the Senator would make things worse, but I was hoping Polaris would do it.
  • Seems next season is going to be Brotherhood vs Underground.  Hopefully this means they develop some of the characters who crossed over to the Brotherhood in the finale, like Fade, Shatter, and Sage.
  • Really liking the character of Andy.  His darker tone is interesting, but I hope they don't make him too dark.  I like that he, for example, was the one that stopped them from destroying the power station a few episodes ago because it would lead to innocents dying or how he was sorry for using his powers out of anger toward his family.  
  • Seeing Andy and Lauren going at each other was interesting.  If they're that powerful when they use their powers together, I would how powerful they would be if they used them against each other.
  • I wonder if Reed will find a way to reactivate his powers.
  • I would if they'll bring Dreamer back from the dead.

I'm sure I'll think of others.

Loved the finale, looking forward to season 2.

I agree about the plane... I mean, killing people isn't right, but, those guys kind of deserved it.

I'd be interested to see if they delve more into the Magneto thing, because so far they haven't actually said it, just alluded to him.

I wonder if they have the rights to Magneto.  I kinda doubt it given they're using like B and C list characters like Blink.

Well, it's all Fox, so I'd think so? But who knows.

Starts soon over here, not sure if it already started on your side of the pond but I imagine you'll be a little ahead of us anyway.

Sigh.  The ratings are terrible.  It's probably going to get canceled at some point.

Well, the ratings did recover a great deal with the latest episode.  So keep your fingers crossed.

Oh dear. That's disappointing, although possibly not totally surprising.
