    I’ve only gotten to the third episode, where I had to stop because that ep seemed a bit too over the top even for a superhero show (a black family in a reasonably nice-looking neighborhood regularly shooting their guns in their back yard, playing William Tell with their kid - especially at all hours of the day - in America? With no neighbors calling the cops on them? C’mon!).

    Nonetheless, it’s mostly well done, and I intend to continue. Just know that some aspects will require a healthy amount of “suspension of disbelief,” even for a superhero show.

      I stopped watching with that episode too but just because it was so fucking boring. Hal really carries that show and even he’s just Temu Reacher
