one sees waves of electricity transmissions and can manipulate it
one has hyper metabolism that enchants his muscles to be ultra strong , fast or invincible for 10 min or more depending on how much he eats
one chick has hyper senses [smell,taste,vision,touch,hearing]
another chick has a hypnotic voice [i say you command]
and one guy has a hyper precognition sense that he uses to he agile with trowing or shooting
they are lead by a doctor that seeks other with abilities and trains them to fight the ALPHAS a group of trained Mutant Humans that are BAD

Horrible 
Let me guess, they will kill the Dr as a season finale cliffhanger because they either can't pay Strathairn or he gets bored with this shit.

That would be weird. Getting on a long running show is all the rage among veteran actors these days from what I read. The wages for seasons after the first are getting crazy high and this is on cable(ofc that means less money than network but also more leniency in the censorship department) so he works like 3 months a year.

I kinda like it, plus I've seen that Summer Glau will be in them (which is a bit worrying, seeing how some shows she was in ended up xD)

I am now officially addicted to this show.
episode 11 had perfect climax, and really good orchestration. (Okay, maybe a bit too much for one episode) Best episode in this show.
 Spoiler: | Except the "duhh, you like me?" .. derp .. "Better" ... deeeeerp... |
The end was pretty epic.
I hope they dont go downhill from there on and dont fukc up the story.
