Post The Tomorrow People (Season 1)
Did anyone else catch this last night?

I thought it was a fairly good pilot which set up the story pretty well. Though with the preview for the next episode, it seems like it's going to do a person (or in this case "homosuperior") of the week. Hopefully, the show doesn't spend too much time on that and does more of how the pilot was.

Is this anything like the movie Jumper?

I mean I haven't seen the movie since it came out but I'll say not really.

Basically, these "Tomorrow People" are born with these powers (teleportation, telekinesis, telepathy) but they don't become apparent till they become older such as with the main character. There is this group out there which wants to control them/take away their powers and it's a means of survival.

So it's exactly like Jumper.

CW shows just never interest me. Too many beautiful people pose-acting always coupled with fairly low production values.

Ehh they are definitely changing their style from what it was at the channel's start. Pretty soon I think the network is going to be more of the basic cable sci-fi/fantasy/comic book go-to as those shows are what's getting them any sort of decent ratings.

Don't blame them, it's a remake of a British series from the 70s (with the same title).

at least the characters acknowledge how stupid a name it is in the pilot.

I liked the first episode. It's not the best the CW has to offer (that'd be Arrow), but as far as genre shows go, I found it enjoyable. I hope it does well, so the CW continues to turn into what Syfy (given its title) should be.
