I feel the series was more about a dysfunctional family that just happened to have superpowers. Which is fine, but the pacing was really very slow. Many scenes dragged on much longer than I should have. The script was good, the acting was good, the production design was very good. However I never felt like I was completely invested in the characters. Some of the potential character traits that could've come about were completely ignored. Between number 5's age and Klaus' is stint in Vietnam, there could've been a lot of potential characterization that never came about.
