I very much enjoyed it. Had a bouncy effect between darkness and teenagery irreverence. Culminated in what I consider an epic season finale.

Considering I was completely unfamiliar with the comic, I thought they did a superb a job with everything except hiding the apocalypse which I guessed from first episode (but maybe it wasn’t supposed to be a big reveal).

That is kinda how i am viewing Deadly Class...never heard of the comic so i have no expectations. That show has been a complete delight so far.

I plan to check out UA soon

Deadly Class is only streaming, right?

And is that cyborg with them? Was he in every DC super group other than suicide squad?

Deadly class is on syfy...no cyborgs...yet anyway

Definitely checking this one out. One of my favorite actors is in it - Robert Sheehan.

Just watched episode 1 with the wife tonight. Pretty solid!

the show was predictable....I had the ending figured out early just not the specific cause.

but I enjoyed it. The characters were surprisingly complex for a comic book...it says something when the talking chimpanzee butler is the least remarkable of all the characters.

Which is better? Deadly Class or this show? My older daughter is now bugging me to watch this. She said all her friends are watching.

they are both good...very different shows.

I thought it was really good. It is very different in terms of ending from the comic and looks to be completely veering away from the original material. No clue how that will impact season 2.

Decent show...season finale was lacking.

Straight up weird. Only through episode 3. Not sure I want to keep doing unless it gets much better.

Watching both Deadly Class and Umbrella Academy. Liking Deadly Class so far. Umbrella Academy seems so slow in pace.

I’ve liked Deadly Class but it’s seemed a bit choppy to me.

4 episodes in and it's basically f'd up xmen .

Pretty sure 7 is dark phoenix or a Mary Sue.

I like it

We're only watching one episode a night but we're 5 episodes in and still enjoying it quite a bit.

From a lot of what I heard (IRL too), this was incredible. It wasn't. It was barely passable for the first episodes, got better the farther it went, but overall was just good enough. I'll probably check out the next season, but it's not must watch TV.

This is basically how I feel. Enjoyable but hardly must watch TV. Seems how I feel about many things on Netflix outside of Stranger Things.

I stopped watching after 2 episodes. Just could not hold my attention.

You try Ozark yet? I felt the same about most Netflix fare outside of Daredevil and Hill House. Rarely do I finish the season or commit to multiple seasons for Netflix shows. But Ozark really grabbed me through 2 seasons.

Can't say as I blame you. The early episodes really dragged.

I liked it but it wasn’t must watch TV for me. Im currently trying to find a new show to binge on Netflix.
