The same issues afflict the series that do most such Netflix series. The conceit full belief that human drama will lift the super heros to irresistible brilliance. Just hours of grating, insufferable, repetitive cliched filled character development. All supporting a plot that does have some unique twists and turns but it is all so buried in an infuriatingly drawn out mess. Yet there is novelty too. Perhaps never before have we gone from one character to the next, marveling at the stubborn stupidity of each, until we are left with only a chimpanzee who looks sort of faultless. Number one's only power seems to be his oversized obtuseness. I never saw that bundle of muscles do anything remotely proportional to his size. Another number refuses to use her powers for 90% of the show. Another doesn't know she has powers for much of the show. One is dead, only present as a ghost for the most part. One's apparent power is to stay drugged for 90% of the show because he doesn't want to connect with his real power. One is a knife thrower who's knives always miss their target. What meaningful connection does he make for much of the show? I mean, it's farcical. Are these positive reviews for real? I don't believe it. Just, story wise, there is enough here to make a decent 90 min or less movie. But only with a relentless focus on story.
