We were recently watching these as all 4 seasons are on amazon prime, been enjoying it as I recall watching the first 2 seasons when it was first aired but then never kept up with it.
Then while we were half way through the 4th season they removed it from the "included with prime" so now we have to buy the whole series to watch the last few episodes.

All I can remember is Hayden Panettiere in a cheerleader outfit...
... which is what got me glued to it in the fist place! Thought the first couple of series were OK, then it just got daft. Bit like Lost, and one or two other series I could name.Really hoping Killing Eve doesn't start going the same way.
“Save the cheerleader, save the world.”
I enjoyed watching the first couple of seasons, but was left feeling that it promised more than it delivered.
It was a moderately entertaining take on the superhero/supervillain genre that tried to present itself as ‘event’ TV. Much the same way as V did in the ‘80s.
Edit: That sounds a bit harsh. I give it credit for trying to do something with the idea of people getting superpowers in the real world. The story was told in a way that kept viewers watching (until the writers strike). I liked the way it was sometimes presented as a stylised graphic novel. Some of the actors played their roles very well, especially Zachary Quinto (the main bad guy).
But I’m not sure I’ll bother watching it again.
