I thought it was decent - even if these episodes seemed to move at a lightning pace. There were multiple times where I felt like I had missed a previous scene - and it was just them advancing the plot very quickly. Shows potential IMO.

Well I missed the first few airings on NBC, USA, Sleuth, UHD.... thankfully it's also being shown on Bravo! What channel isn't this being broadcast on?
Thought it was pretty weak - I know with TV shows these days you have to hit the ground running or risk getting canceled, but the setup on much of this all felt way too rushed (Orwell, Chess reveal, the backstory to create The Cape, etc).

I really enjoyed the heck out of it. I thought the concept was original enough (at least I've never seen a cape with "powers" like that. The pacing was too quick but I appreciate they want to keep things moving at a decent pace and set itself apart from other super hero TV shows. I will certainly be checking out more.
