Alphas
With over 6 Billion people on the planet who are your “average joe” type of people, it can be overwhelming to imagine. However, if you look deeper, you will see that many of these “average joe” people have unique abilities. These are what I like to call, Alphas. Some of these, such as the type that I have as co-workers, are able to accomplish things that are amazing while others are the type of people who are upset, misguided and afraid. They have abilities that are under the par and are very scary.
Alphas like to follow a group setting of “average joe” people who give them the power to have these unique abilities both mental and physical. Led by Dr. Leigh Rosen (David Strathairn), the team of Alphas investigates cases that have Alpha activity to find that the CIA, FBI and even the Pentagon are unable to handle the situations and resolve them. Thus, the team takes over on this matter. The Alphas and their personalities connect with each other to bring the perfect balance. Despite their quirky behaviors and mysterious backgrounds, they work to fight crime and catch the enemy before it is too late.
Genre: Drama, Action/Adventure

Really good series if you get past the obvious references and inspirations drawn from X-Men. This series is a bit more "down to earth" and focuses more on the human part of each alpha (read mutant) and that is what makes this series, excellent characters. The best episodes thus far are ep. 9 and 10. The ratio between good episode and filler thus far is about 8:2.
Yes, yes I'm back.
Somewhat.

it's has a weird vibe, but it's not a bad syfy series. i was expecting eureka or warehouse 13 with super powers  but this has a decent set of writers on it so \o/

I've reported this thread to mods but it seems that phpbb2 doesn't have merge ability...

So I'm on episode 9, and
| Spoiler: | Brent Spiner asks Rosen if anyone of his team could read minds. Rosen just doesnt say anything to answer. Maybe Rosen himself is the mindreader (or some other close to mindreading, empath ability as otherwise it would have been easier in past episodes.) just like Charles Xavier? He's just been hiding it very well. |
Yeah, I know, stupid theory.
