At first, the series seemed cool. The pilot is a great sell to keep a new viewer. However, as it keeps going, even before the end of first season, the show turns into a boring repetitive plot or a dragged story-line with deliberately inserted over-sexualised/slutty characters probably to hook simple-minded male viewers. The reason it deserves some credit is that it's well done enough to be a great alternative to Marvel's new competing shows with annoyingly preachy writing. Also, the graphic effects are moderately done. It's nice to have a competitor to Marvel. If you want true deeper mutant show however, I'll consider *"Legion"* instead. It's ways better. **This is what you get when you buy X-men from Wish.com but plastered it with a "hot blonde"**
