I totally agree with the assessment on Luthor and his progression being the opposite of Klaus. And I absolutely hate his romance plot. Cringe! Even tho I loved the Klaus romance, and Hazel and the waitress.

yup, agree on the spoilered part, although it's a little unfair because, just as in real life, it's easy to make a romance look amazing when you're always wistfully looking back on it and not actually in the middle. i still believed in it 100%

in some ways i'm glad i didn't read the graphic novels, because it sounds like they changed a few characters.

i personally find luther and vanya close to unredeemable by the end- but hopefully they can be "fixed". For some reason, different types of selfishness and betrayals feel unequal in family stories. Apparently, luther wasn't so bad in the novels, and Allison was less scrupulous.

Again, I found every single character super believable in their varying types of shittiness. Maybe diego was a little bit of a stretch or caricature, but at least I thought his arc with 'mom' was worthwhile.

There were a few parts that took me out or had me confused about the tone of the show. How many times did they casually decide to run through hails of deadly gunfire only for the dozens of mooks to miss wildly? Creative license and all that, but I feel like the writers should have to try a little harder, ha. Finally, allison refusing to use the power on the super-powered agents attacking the mansion? I suppose it's in character, but it still had me shouting nooo inside...

And I thought the rave was great.

You did indeed stab me in the back. However, you are only level one, whilst I am level 50. That means I should remain uninjured.
