The Gifted, Season 1 (2017)



Starring: Amy Adams, Stephen Moyer, Sean Teale, Jamie Chung, Natalie Alyn Lind, Percy Hynes White, Hayley Lovitt, Coby Bell, Elena Satine, Blair Redford, Emma Dumont, Jeff Daniel Phillips, Garret Dillahunt


Premise:
The mass public as turned on mutants scared of their powers. A prosecuting attorney is forces to seek the help of the underground mutant network he has helped put into jail after his teenagers mutant abilities come to the surface.

My Take:
Most of the first season was more enjoyable than not, despite the obvious correlation to the groups mutants represent in today's reality. The show is at it's best when it heightens the family drama and lays off the political side. The cast is solid as well.

Rating: In the middle

Watched: Hulu / ABC
