I tried... I really did but this was uninspired and stupid. It looked to be a fresh take on the x-men series but it was not fresh at all. The entire first episode should have taken about 20 minutes but went on and on and on. The academy came off as ungrateful - without any reason. The powers were poorly explained and I didn't really know what was going on. There was no one to root for. Ellen Page and her ridiculous man clothing wearing and pill popping downer was not someone to care about. Then there is a chimpanzee talking with everyone ...err what? After the big reveal at the end of episode one, I actually thought... good. These people deserve what is happening to them. Netflix quality is really bad lately.
