Re: The Cape
***** SPOILER ALERT *****
Text....
Totally agree the first episode was good, funny and out there but a little rushed, second was ok but a bit slow, i think they would have been much better doing a proper two hour episode so they could have balanced it out. Unfortunately the third episode didn't really fill me with hope and they introduced another bad guy who we are to assume we will see again, so thats chess + some guy trying to steel his cape, i think that this is going to get boring pretty fast. I will keep watching, unless they introduce another bad guy next week, at least give it a chance but im not hopeful.
Re: The Cape
Seems like I'm only watching this because I hate myself ...
Storyline no better in the 3rd part, writing still poor. They've also made it far too obvious that
It's like they didn't even try to hide it. I guess it'll get strung out for a few more episodes, then they'll have a grand SHOCKING REVELATION REVEAL.
And yet I am still watching ... weird.

Re: The Cape
IF the writers actually bothered to put any drama into the show it might be alot better.
Cos right now its like a kids show with no depth.
They havnt really done anything to play on the drama of the best friends bitrayal, and having a Super skilled "villian" per episode kinda sucks cos you dont get the full feeling of how strong and dangerous they are meant to be.

PS. Having a ratings thread for all those who enjoy looking at the numbers would be appreciated.

Re: The Cape
i don't know. still 50/50 series after 4 episodes.
Re: The Cape
I still need to watch the last 2 that have aired, just no real rush since I know it will be cancelled and from the sounds of it, it hasn't gotten any better. I really wonder what the target audience for this show it suppose to be

Wow I didn't think they would go with the absolute obvious choice you could possibly go with. I really want NBC to come out and just say April Fools we know you all aren't that stupid, and give us the actual show were the writers don't expect the IQ of their viewers to be playdo.
I'm sorry to ever one who likes the show and I'm just bashing it. I don't mean to I'm just a little stunned at just the sheer level of them actually doing every cliche their is. Along with no character development, no plot development and nothing happening having any effect from one scene to the next.
This is maybe a little harsh on my part but I came in expecting a lot more then what I got. But for those people out their who like it as a guilty pleasure more power to you, I really hope it get's better but I'm not holding my breath.
Re: The Cape
I've already dropped it I just couldn't take the pain any more. Pity I was hoping it was going to be better.
Re: The Cape
If it wasn't for Summer, I would have dropped this show after the first episode.
As hard as it is to get through an episode of this show, Summer always makes it just that bit easier.
But I hope it starts getting better quick, because I don't know how much more I can take.
And as for the kid, get rid of him, he is just do damn annoying.
Re: The Cape
The wife is gona get boned by the lawer, which makes me sad.
Makes me sad too...
But I don't think it will happen... the show is too much of a cliche for it to happen. It wouldn't be right and good.

Re: The Cape
agreed. was a better episode.
but the kid is so annoying, it hurts.
Re: The Cape
like you predicted dude.
Re: The Cape
I said it had room to improve, sadly, their vision of improvement is to fill the room with all the crap they bought drunk on a souvenir shop in Vegas.
Re: The Cape
Oh that is good and bad!
Good for everyone who gave up on this show or even never watched it.
And it is really bad for everyone who slightly liked The Cape, since they pulled the plug right after the production of ep 10. So the writers may have build a story line and season/series finale for ep 13 which no never happens.
Anyway - I'm glad that rubbish childish shows get also pulled. Too bad for Summer Glau, she deserves a long running well scripted show
