Default Alphas _ What did you think?

I watched the pilot and found myself disappointed. The hype ahead of the show had me expecting much more than we got with this one. So, I am interested in other opinions about Syfy's "Alphas".

I didn't see it. I was mildly interested in it, but it never registered with me enough to record it or watch it. I get the impression it's just another version of Heroes.

I don't trust Sci Fi. The had Bruce freak'n Campbell in a movie so bad even he couldn't save it.

They are not to be trusted.

Aside-they made a series in 06 called The Lost Room that I found rather enjoyable.

Heroes was the better show if the pilot is any indication. I'll give "Alphas" a few weeks to see if it improves.

Okay, I've watched three episodes of Alphas and I am ready to move on. SyFy would have done better to pick up Wonder Woman than this one.

BTW- A member of the "Heroes" cast will now be playing the Government handler for the Alphas team.
